This PR adds mac support for cameras by assuming that once any virtual cameras are removed from the QCameraDevice list, the device list lines up with the cv2 ports. That is, it assumes any virtual camera is always shown last in the cv2 ports.

Also adds some error handling in the parsing code for non mac/windows code.

Got some weird behavior when actually recording with this. It say's the webcams I used were running at 5 fps, and that it would default to slowest framerate. However, display clearly showed it was recording at faster than 5 fps. Then when checking the output videos, the two webcams recorded at 5 fps and my internal camera at 30.

I'm getting fps info from ffprobe, and it matches the video playback speed. Timestamp info looks normal though:

    'timestamp_stats_by_camera_id': {   0: {   'mean_frame_duration_s': 0.03938690085542169,
                                               'mean_frames_per_second': 25.38915167940531,
                                               'std_dev_frame_duration_s': 0.02373020642672382},
                                        1: {   'mean_frame_duration_s': 0.03932604844578313,

                                               'std_dev_frame_duration_s': 0.02341737166964161},
                                        2: {   'mean_frame_duration_s': 0.03935551957831326,
                                               'mean_frames_per_second': 25.409396463693167,

And here's the error message I'm getting:
