It would also be nice if some/all of these moments were the type that
compress poorly so you'd get a sort of worts-case quality idea.
e.g. lots of motion and/or dark scenes

It would be really cool if the program could find these scenes on its own
but a user input of the time offset would still be very useful

Just my 2 cents...
