display elapsed/total time during pause ceased working recently #797

Until circa 2020 November omxplayer would display elapsed | total time during pause. This is an invaluable feature! I don't know what happened, but it seems to be gone from every omxplayer on every machine now, so I'm guessing some code changed. I grepped all the source code for show_time but came up empty. I noticed show_time_offset used in a different fork of the code, but I've always just run the official distributed binaries, so I don't know what to do.

omxplayer is deprecated and there have been no changes for many months. Note: OSD does not work with fkms driver. Have you enabled that in config.txt? (it's a default option on Pi4, but optional on earlier models)

That appears to have been the problem. THANK YOU popcornmix!
