This is often a ShadowLayerForwarder, which although implements threadsafe refcounting, is not really threadsafe at all.

I want to fix this properly (by removing threadsafe refcounting, and fixing the places that it triggers), but that's a lot of work.

For now, this just removes the references from the video manager thread, which is the only one specific to OOP video decoding.
