More open source... VLC http home dir fix

¿Are you using vlc's http interface?, and you are annoyed by the fact that when you try to select a file to be played, you are shown the $HOME directory when you'd prefer another directory.

Here is the fix for you.

Go to this file:
$VLCPATH/share/vlc/http/dialogs/browse

And change this line

<input type="hidden" id="browse_lastdir"
value="~" />

For this:

<input type="hidden" id="browse_lastdir"
value="{PUT HERE YOUR
PREFERED PATH}" />

You're welcome.
