MGJSON and AE issue #46

Hi, I found a issue when exporting/importing in After Effects the MGJSON. This occurs when working with multiples concatenated dataStrings (as the SrtViewer does). If these files have a DATE property, and the set of these values temporarily covers more than 3 hours in total, AE throws out an error on the import process. No matter how short the real duration of the merge is, it won't let you open it. AE has a length limit of 3 hours in compositions, maybe that's the reason? Weird. Also, if the 3 hour interval is not exceeded (or the DATE property doesn't exist), AE reads it, but only displays the last file. Maybe could be possible to discard all the jumps in the timestamps after the first file?

The 3hs AE error:
AE Error

It might make sense to discard the jumps. That might also help with syncing multiple clips when a gap is not recorded. I can't think of use cases where skipping the gap is a problem.
