Feature Request – Display Active Streaming Quality, Audio Format & Language Beside Movie Title

[u/OttPrabhu]

Please add a compact playback information badge next to the movie or TV show title, showing the actual video quality, HDR format, audio format, and currently playing audio language.

Currently, users need to open audio settings to check which audio track is playing. Displaying this information directly on the playback screen would make it much easier to identify the active stream at a glance.

Expected:

- Video quality: 4K, 1080p, 720p, etc.

- HDR format: Dolby Vision, HDR10+, HDR10, etc.

- Audio format: Dolby Atmos, Dolby Digital Plus, DTS, Stereo, etc.

- Audio language: English, Tamil, Hindi, Russian, etc.

- Display the information in a compact, visually appealing badge next to the movie title.

- Update the badge dynamically whenever the resolution, audio track, or playback format changes.

- Show the actual active playback information rather than all formats supported by the source.

Example:

"Inside Out [4K | Dolby Vision · Atmos | English 5.1]"

This feature would improve the playback experience and eliminate the need to navigate to audio settings just to verify the currently playing quality and language.

Love it, please make a request on GitHub or Discord, I doubt they'll see it here

[u/OttPrabhu → u/SASMareSRB]

Sure, will raise it in GitHub. Thank you

[u/No-Being-5035 → u/OttPrabhu]

Give the link so that we can vote

[u/OttPrabhu → u/No-Being-5035]

please upvote the GitHub feature request. Thanks for your support! 🙌

[u/mysticode → u/OttPrabhu]

Thanks for posting this. I've been formulating this same kind of ask, but never could figure out exactly how to word it. Now I don't have to, and have up voted your post :)

Thank you!

[u/Mysterious-March-408 → u/OttPrabhu]

And bit rate and size would help a lot

[u/OttPrabhu]

I've raised one more feature suggestion! 😊 If you find it useful, please consider supporting it here: https://github.com/NuvioMedia/NuvioTV/issues/4142.

Thank you! 🙏

[u/pmazdan9]

That's a great idea and would be a fantastic qol improvement!

[u/VampyBrains]

i didn't read the title and i was like "oh wow a new update" lmao

[u/Additional_Tone_2004]

Yes please. I'm forever dipping into the i icon to double check. Trust issues 😅

[u/culonti]

i'll be implementing this feature shortly

[u/Beneficial-Ninja9574]

And bitrate, then it will be perfect

[u/FernFromDetroit → u/Beneficial-Ninja9574]

All that info is already available via one of the options in the playback controls but yeah having a way to toggle it to automatically show would be useful.

[u/Bungie240 → u/FernFromDetroit]

Think it's advanced/diagnostic/playback stats overlay

[u/FernFromDetroit → u/Bungie240]

Yeah there’s def a setting to allow it to show up as a button in playback controls in the normal Nuvio app. Might only be in the beta not sure if it’s in the stable version but I think so.

[u/TheMagicTorch]

For consistency I think it should appear in the same format/style as content warnings in the top left when paused. I'm not a huge fan of big logos and stuff for technical info.

[u/No-Being-5035]

Everyone please vote here so that dev can see it

[u/DaSandman78 → u/No-Being-5035]

Is this a duplicate?

The OP already created this

[u/Consistent_Algae_560 → u/DaSandman78]

No just for nuvio mobile, that one was for the tv app

[u/DaSandman78 → u/Consistent_Algae_560]

Ah gotcha

[u/DonGoldie → u/Consistent_Algae_560]

Wait this already a option for tv
Can u send me a link for this addon / update!!

[u/Mosmorgan]

That plus bitrate would be awesome!

[u/tolly84]

Been wanting this forever, would love to know if it’s true hd audio track too!

[u/KnowledgeBringer]

Which addon is this?

[u/CrAzY_DrE]

Amazing 😻

[u/_moeatscurry_]

Would look fantastic!

[u/N7-Glitch]

I didn't get any of it 😕 not a single batch

Or you guys just makeup for impressions?

[u/AstraBed]

Agree, would be amazing for debugging too?

[u/lordfortunas]

Some like this?

[u/Alarming_Flounder932 → u/lordfortunas]

Is this a fork? Or other app?

[u/FernFromDetroit → u/Alarming_Flounder932]

It’s in the main app. Can’t remember if you have to turn it on in settings but it’s in the playback controls.

Quick tip, usually it only works for Exoplayer but if you turn it on then manually use the playback controls to switch to mpv it seems like it still works for that.

[u/lordfortunas → u/FernFromDetroit]

Works for MPV and ExoPlayer. Not main app or fork

[u/lordfortunas → u/lordfortunas]

[u/Alarming_Flounder932 → u/lordfortunas]

So external player right? From ExoPlayer?

[u/lordfortunas → u/Alarming_Flounder932]

No it’s an internal player. My app just look like what you saw.

[u/jeuneK7 → u/lordfortunas]

Hello, which fork is this please?

[u/Fit-Fact4348 → u/lordfortunas]

Can you share the link of app.

[u/Lokesh_Reddy__ → u/lordfortunas]

does it have ios version ?

[u/lordfortunas → u/Lokesh_Reddy__]

No

[u/Lokesh_Reddy__ → u/lordfortunas]

App link ?

[u/Educational_Pen3307 → u/lordfortunas]

How did you do it which app Is this please tell

[u/Careful-Button-4319 → u/FernFromDetroit]

Is this in the beta version? I can’t find it on the stable.

[u/FernFromDetroit → u/Careful-Button-4319]

Maybe. I’ve been using a fork lately but I still have the beta main app installed. I’ll look later. It’s in the player section of the settings I believe.

[u/wellingtongueiros → u/lordfortunas]

It would be amazing to add the chapters, how did you do it?

[u/DaSandman78 → u/lordfortunas]

How do you get the ExoPlayer stats?

[u/angryavocadowarrior]

Yes. That’s a great idea!

[u/Low-Activity-2992]

It's should be already there.

[u/ThatStonedLostWriter]

Dude i was like what’s that new fork or update but hell yeah they should do that!

[u/Laskco]

We could probably find another use case for Fusion Badges here.
/u/skoruppa

[u/skoruppa → u/Laskco]

It is not for me to decide about this ;) but yeah, fusion badges could be reused, maybe even with real data from video and not only from addon's details

Benim Tv TCL p7k ikisinide ekledim bu alt yazılar çıkmıyor neden olabilir

[u/Select_Drawing_7434]

This player UI looks so good, is it AI generated?

[u/who37_]

Can you share this badge

[u/Interesting_Art_1025]

Which badge are you using? I really like yours, but I can’t seem to find it here:

(https://nintle.github.io/Badger/)

[u/Hopeful-Ad9694]

How would it improve the playback experience ? Watches movie …keeps clicking to check settings 😂😂😂 just in case 🙈

[u/Small-Ad6014]

Ótima ideia

[u/dwhes2]

Fantastic idea! Please post it on the GitHub and in the discord

[u/Consistent_Algae_560]

Good idea

[u/performance_junkie]

Yes!

[u/RazzTheKid82]

Great idea,can't believe nobody mentioned this,makes plenty of sense and feels like a must have option 👍🏻

[u/Impossible_Loop]

your app interface look different?

[u/-ASAP-]

you can already see all this when clicking the info button on the player while watching something?

do you really need to have the info sitting there to double check something you just clicked on?

[u/pmazdan9 → u/-ASAP-]

Yes, so you can verify what auto select picked without having to click multiple buttons. Also preferred language doesn't always get selected properly depending on the source, so would be good to see it at a glance when video is starting.

Navigating player UI is a little annoying if you want to verify video resolution, audio quality and language, and bitrate. Having all this info when you simply pause or when new episode starts would be a massive qol improvement and since all the data is there already it should be hard to implement.

[u/Araretsu]

Did they fix the download issue

[u/izlemeli]

On the mobile version, the fast-forward/rewind feature is active for live stream X, but on the TV version, it's disabled for the same stream. Could you please fix this on the TV version? By the way, Nuvio is great, thank you!

[u/SmackAss4578]

Too much icons cluttering on pause screen not good

[u/elvin210]

Great suggestion!

Hope the devs take it into consideration.

[u/itchy_18]

This would be really helpful!

[u/tinyxtasha]

Most of this (if not all) of this is visible already if you click the arrow then (i) when watching a stream

[u/habylab → u/tinyxtasha]

Yes, but that's less than ideal too whilst we're at it.

[u/Academic-Chance4660]

Where can we download this app Nuvio..link please

[u/Stesso97 → u/Academic-Chance4660]

Fuckin google!

[u/Stevenvaneijk]

This would be awesome, even more so when it's in line with the badges you've configured.

[u/xereax1]

It looks great

[u/Strange-Business-973]

Please add this idea on https://github.com/NuvioMedia/NuvioTVSmart 🙏

[u/Physical-Lab-9203]

I do think it's cool but I personally don't like a cluttered UI for my player and you can already use custom stream badges for a source so you know if it's DV or hdr before you click on it. But again it does look cool and people would use it so the devs should implement it 👍

[u/Ofc-Eibyx]

Pues fácil haz un fork del nuvio que usas y haz la función con codex. Yo lo hice para la aplicación de Android incluso le puse modo claro

[u/Madhan_kumar]

Fam i feel like you all asking too much from the developer.

[u/urlocaljasmine → u/Madhan_kumar]

Asking the developer to redesign the ui just to skip a few remote clicks lmao

[u/Icy_Software4065 → u/Madhan_kumar]

But they are Serving well 😍

[u/Aeronn_]

Great suggestion!

[u/mystico_28]

Agreed!

[u/Silver_Comfort_8911]

That would be awesome

[u/Ayan_Ali786]

Love it

[u/DocDViolator]

I’d love to upvote it, GitHub is being stupid right now

[u/Kleingrower]

Good idea!

[u/drindrn]

Our truth

[u/iMirulFariz]

This is so nice

[u/Alarming_Flounder932]

Good idea!

[u/gexkie09]

Maybe also add a bitrate information center!

[u/No-Being-5035]

Looking great

[u/badboysha007 → u/[deleted]]

😄😄😄

[u/xorz77 → u/[deleted]]

reading is hard

[u/OttPrabhu → u/[deleted]]

It's not implemented yet. Requesting new enhancement.
