Why is my run getting rejected

Recently I got an any% time of 1:51:18 and it was rejected for not showing the start. During the time of recording my capture card did not capture the first second of gameplay when I started the run. During the run you can still clearly see that it is a clean file (opening cutscene and stuff at start of dreamland) and if you retime it you can see that it is 1:51:17 (would be a 1:51:18 but it isnt because the 1 second that is missing at the start) so I feel it is unfair as you can still figure out the total time of the run despite missing that single second. So Can I please have a better explanation as to why my run got removed, or is there a way that I can prove that I had a 1:51:18 for example a screen shot of my splits?

Here is the run to show what I mean:

you failed to capture the story mode selection to prove you're starting on a clean save. i would've rejected it too.

England

Not only this, but because of the fact that you didn't show the first few seconds, we have no way of retiming it accurately

ok, thank you. I'll get a new PB soon so it is not that important :)
