Apologies. I have to rerun the script to get exact missing times. I have the original file,
But it is quite large. 2.8 GB. The Simpsons (1989) - S28E07 - Havana Wild Weekend

I can probably Dropbox it over. I'll rerun it for the exact times of the missing piece.

I have the files, I just need to edit the ref. Unfortunately, it is in frames, whereas I saw seconds. So I'm not quite sure what to do there.
It cuts content at opening after the credits as well as a few other minutes in the beginning

Multiply seconds with frames per second
