Comment:

 The preview pixmap generate will ignore PreviewPixmapOffset in lots of
 cases.  It also takes into account RecordPreRoll, PreviewFromBookmark, the
 commercial skip list, and the cutlist, so there are lots of reasons why
 the image would not always be from a fixed position in the recording.
 Closing ticket unless you can document cases where it's not working as it
 should.  Unfortunately, "pretty odd sometimes" doesn't help us debug.  If
 you want to try to track this down, edit NuppelVideoPlayer.cpp and search
 for NuppelVideoPlayer::GetScreenGrab() and insert some lines like the one
 below every time you see the 'number' variable modified.  Then you can see
 why it is choosing the frame it chooses.

 cerr << "NVP::GetScreenGrab: Line: " << __LINE__ << ", number = " <<
 number << endl;

 That will print out the current value of number and the current line
 number as well so you can see where it is being changed at.
