Now that RTMP streaming is rock-solid with the 1.0 release, I am wondering if it is possible to have some sort of OSD indicator while the buffering in-between parts is happening. Or, even something like "Starting part 2 of 4".

Without any sort of indication, one episode finishes and the user (who has no idea about the total parts) might be confused when the subsequent parts start.

Of course, site utils would have to implement this in C# code. I would be willing to give it a try, but I need to know if it's a good idea and then I might need some help with the implementation.

What do you think?

    Sounds like a plan. but I don't think the c# -siteutil needs to do anything ;) it's purely GUi related and we need to a) add one or two new GuiProrperties that indicate this state and b) modify the ski to actually show something. Looking at the DefaultWide, I have no idea where to show this info? :(
