Hi,

Could it be possible to compute the right playlist total duration when it uses #EXTVLCOPT:start-time= and or #EXTVLCOPT:stop-time= tags?

Regards,
Laurent.

+1 for this. The duration column uses the full length of the media file but if you're only playing snippets using start-time and stop-time then the duration column is just plain wrong.

I raised a bug for this but it was rejected:- https://trac.videolan.org/vlc/ticket/22319

If the sacred Duration column is perfect then maybe a new optional column called 'Playtime' could be added to the playlist table to show the 'real' times?
