Streaming-time elapsed/remaining on client side

Postby Gogu81 » 24 Apr 2013 10:36

While streaming is there a way to show on the client side player time elapsed/remaining or at least time remaining? Thanx in advance. God bless you for (probably) the best open-source piece of software.

With streaming, this is expected that you don't have the time.
