VLC Video Source code to prevent shuttering on old devices after 1 hour

VLC Video Source code that prevents video shutter after 1 hour.Common on older devices that stream on OBS after awhile the VLC encoder starts to require more CPU usage even when OBS and windows are set to the lowest settings to run smoothly.The code can prevent that from happening by automatically checking CPU temp before stream and automatically resetting VLC source evrey 30minutes during the stream by doing soo performance is improved and chances start getting low for the stream to eventually crash the code is available on my github at https://github.com/patrick48001/ThinkPad-Stream-Sentinel-VLC-Video-Source-reset-disable-stream-shutter and i have a live demo on twitch at https://www.twitch.tv/wavelounge the code works in the background of the stream
