Would it be possible to have "Total Time" information for selected album/selected tracks available on the play bar (possibly as one of the customisation options).
MM5 does display this information, but it is buggy .... ie. sometimes I see it everywhere, and other times it is missing, and can be difficult to trigger its re-appearance.
It overwrites the bottom line of the list or grid ... and is written there after the display settles.... but sometimes it never arrives. So there appears to be some kind of race condition. ... I have mostly seem this with a new db, so maybe MM5 is busy with caches etc, and the footer behaviour is at too low a priority
The same thing happens when the display reclaims the space used the the Player panel at the bottom of the screen ... sometimes when I hide the player, the space is not reclaimed by the list or grid ... ie. it persists as a blank space.
Both of things happened to me this morning ... and now I can't trigger either of them.
Another thing, the footer information is not always correct ... see image below ... it looks to me that I should have selected 19 tracks, but the footer thinks that I have selected only 9 tracks .... I sometimes see this in Album&Tracks view ... MM5 seems to get confused when selecting the album via a click on the art, and ctrl clicking to add another album
