you can specify start and stop times.  EDL support would be a nice
feature at some point :)

I've been interested in creating something like this recently.
Contact me offline to discuss it and requirements :)

re: scene detection

You could split your video to jpeg's then use imagemagick's "diff"
tool metric, and detect frames that have large diff's (sorry if this
was already mentioned previously).
