I am using ImageJ on stacks of images from high speed videos.  I typically have more than 150,000 image files in each folder.  When use File-->Image Sequence, it opens the last folder I worked on.  The problem is that it is usually a folder with 150,000 files, and it takes 15-30 seconds before I see the files in the folder.  Then when I click on a different folder, I have another wait of 15-30 seconds.  Since I'm working on these images all day, these delays are bothersome.

My question is: is there a way to specify which folder is opened when I use File-->Image Sequence ?
I would like to specify that folder to be one that has no images.  This will avoid the 15-30 second delays every time I open a sequence of images.

Thank you!
