With a default installation of MediaInfo on Windows, knowit fails to detect the .dll and falls back on the MediaInfo.exe GUI. This is problematic in a script as it causes the MediaInfo GUI to pop up on each usage.

It's a pitty MediaInfo provides the GUI and the CLI under the same name.

I enhanced a bit mediainfo provider to skip potential GUI executables: Only test the executable if it doesn't have an icon
