Showing remaining playing time instead of the playing time ?

[Viper73]

Hi,

i have the Sansa Clip+ with the 3.8.1 Rockbox Firmware installed (standart theme).

When i play my MP3 songs i see in the upper right corner the "playing time" of the song. But i want to see the "remaining playing time" (or better both, the playing time and the remainig playing time. Or maybe the playing time and the length of the song).

Is it possible to do this in the settings ? I didn't find anything ...

Try this:

This is a little something I whipped up just now (untested) to fix your problem, the Clip(s) have *very* limited screen real estate, and as such certain compromises have to be made.

I could not possibly include time elapsed and remaining in its usual position, so I have moved it down to an alternating subline which alternates between the current track time elapsed/remaining and the next track details.
I hope this is a favourable compromise.

Other changes:

- Included the (commented out for some reason, I suspect draw order issues before the addition of the "backdrop" parameter for the bar tags) progressbar background image.
- Add numerical volume display whilst volume is changing.
- Add support for RTL languages

As soon as I've got my Rockbox as an Application themes into svn I will work on updating all the cabbiev2 ports to make use of new syntax that has been included in the theme engine since my initial cabbiev2 re-write to make use of viewports.

Please test this by extracting this .zip file to the root of your player (and letting it replace the files it wants to) and reloading the theme cabbiev2 then reporting back here if it is at all possible for you to do so to let me know if it works out for you.
Others with this target are welcome to test these changes as well.
