are there any technical utilities to achieve these kinds of very specific 'start times'?
in other words.. it would be neat if there was a VLC/Jellyfin/Kodi plugin (some sort of video player) that you could schedule to start a video, to the second.

I'm not sure the people who engage in this sort of tomfoolery are concerned with atomic clock-level precision.
You mean nerds? Because I'm pretty sure there are.
When you're logical, you're logical.
Logical Tomfoolery sounds like the title of a nerdcore rap album.
I’m happy to contribute to this project.

You can use Task Scheduler in windows to run a command to run VLC at a specific time
You'd have to run a few tests to figure out how long it takes to start and open the file, though - there will definitely be a delay
You'd have to take load times into account, maybe have VLC open and ready and have task scheduler press the space bar with autohotkey
Use a clock.
You can set up a command line to start VLC using the OS's built in task scheduler.
Why don't I remember this episode?
Well, are you wearing 18th century garb and using a weak Irish accent? Cause I may have some bad news for you.
It is not good.*
*in my personal, but I think pretty uncontroversial, opinion.
I love that episode!
... But.... Yeah. It's not good. It's kinda great. But not good.
I used to hate the fairhave episodes but they grew on me, not good but campy
I started remembering bits after reading the synopsis. It's whimsical, Leland.
It is not good.*
Normal Voyager not good or Threshold not good?
What?? Uh...somewhere in between.

Moogie!!
My man, setting up shop and selling out of stock in less than 11 minutes.
The hero we deserve!
Despicable. I was reliably informed Harry lasted 22 minutes.
Alright. Who actually did this? Time to come clean.
