Here's experiment with the 1 pixel wide timeline. This is the Obi-Vader clip, but only just the first 2.7222 minutes. Here it is raw:

Basically undecipherable. can read out the two horizontal bands of the untouched frames and some sections are lighter, so boosted the contast:

and well it's more interesting, not sure usefull. Some of the patterns are saber swings, which is kinda neeto. Can see some movement over time, and the bright spots are probably the core light saber changes. The bright pinks at the beginning are the stormtrooper laser blasts. ...one neet thing to note are the times the actual screen caps (in the small clips) brightens significantly but the DIF part of the frame does not. also weird seeing the movement over time, the second row is Obi-wan sneaking around. the next section being 3po sticking his head out to see what's going on. still on the second row that weird moray pattern is han & chewie running down the DS halls, the overhead lights causing the pattern. The last bright pink being 'Close the blast doors'.

Any ideas on how this might be useful, are welcomed.
