Missing button to configure Direct Show plugin

Hi. I just upgraded to V2.1.3 and the button that allowed you to configure a Direct Show device has disappeared. It used to be on the tab for 'Open capture device'. Now it's not there. So how can you configure a Direct Show device now?

I am trying to stream my desktop using the Unreal Screen Capture DirectShow source filter. I upgraded VLC from 1.x.x (I forget the exact version) to 2.1.3 to try and fix another problem. But everything just got worse. Any advice, please?

[Refresh list] & [Configure], they are both useful buttons/functions that should be restored!

Media > Open Capture Device... > Capture Device tab: Capture mode [DirectShow] > [Advanced options...] button: [v] Device properties
Tools > Preferences > Show settings = All > Input/Codecs \ Access modules \ DirectShow: [v] Device properties
