There are two cases where it takes a long time: when the file is empty and
 also when the keyframe map is broken/missing.

 The first could be made faster by just failing quickly if the file is
 empty or doesn't exist, and the second by just capturing the first frame
 if there is a problem with the keyframe map.

 When these cases are taken care of, we can simplify preview generation in
 the Playback box (by not using a seperate thread and backend connection.)
