Totally agreeing to the points you mentioned. At first we only had like one timeframe selector, but since videos can be pretty long, we added the zoom selection (the upper one), but it's quite hard to figure out how to handle them correctly. Actually you can use it very precisely if you know how.
I guess the first thing I will do is add an instruction video or a short tutorial to make clear what the controls are there for.
The problem with Firefox is that the videos we are getting from YouTube and Vimeo are MP4. Since Firefox does not support the h264 codec right now, I had to implement a flash fallback which is not responsive at all. I wonder why people still use Firefox, though :P
I'll take some time tomorrow to have a closer look at the gif encoding code of FFmpeg to make it use another color palette. This is quite complicated though, so it might take some time. For now, we have to consider ourselves satisfied with the quality :(
