For broadcasting it is really needed a On Air duration indicator.. a counter of online time. it should be start by connection to server and count until disconnect or until manual reset. Best format would be hh:mm:ss. Also A visual indicator as a circle divided in quadrants or a 4 section bar which get filled as time passes would be an excellent addition. In Tango skin its physical position would be next to the Enable broadcast button and indicator.

(also the time format should be changeable to 12 hrs or 24 hrs mode)

Thank you in advance

Such a widget should be quite easy to implement. We need a new ControlObject that is counting the air time and a copy of https://github.com/mixxxdj/mixxx/blob/master/src/widget/wtime.cpp To show the time. Later it can be enhanced by all sort of visible goodies. Do you have interest to dive into this work?

Unfortunately I can't. I have never programmed.

(Actually I have, back in 1982 in BASIC but no object oriented or visual programming back then).

I just had the idea (and necessity) and thought it is good to share and ask for.

Thanks, evreyone, for all this good work and your time.

On some skins there is a timer for "Record Mix". This could be copied for "Broadcasting".

Just wanted to verify, if we are going to use QTime or QTimer?
