Problem Description

Currently there is no way to know how much time it would take to finish a playlist.

Proposed Solution

Let's say you're in a playlist; I think it would nice if it said at the bottom or top something like this:

Total time: 76 hours and 31 minutes and 11 seconds to watch

And also there would be a speed adjuster that affected the time for example if you selected x1.4 speed then the time would be 56 hours etc.

Hello,

I’ve implemented the feature to display the total playlist duration. The duration is now displayed within the playlist info container, styled to fit seamlessly with the existing UI.

Here’s the pull request: #6657. Feel free to check it out and share your feedback!

Thanks!

Where is the playlist total time displayed? It doesn't appear when a playlist is loaded:

And it doesn't show in the playlist section of the video page:

@nhooey this will become available in v0.24.0

Reopening as #7007 only implemented this for the Playlist views but not Watch view
