The offset is sometimes (usually) needed because different emulators have different boot-up times.
Getting the right offset is usually trial&error work, and even so, it's possible that the resulting movie will not play properly (desync) in the target emulator. This is because the emulators run the game slightly differently. Sometimes it matters, sometimes it doesn't. Consider yourself lucky if the conversion works.
