Feature request: duration field for submissions
I like seeing the duration of videos. Please add a text field on the video submission page for clip duration. It should of course be optional, but by having a separate field more people would be likely to use it.
Thanks

We have talked about this in the past, basically we feel that most people will not bother to write in the duration times. So it would work but only for x number of videos. However, if the various video services start offering an api to retrieve total running time we would happily implement such a feature.
I would certainly use the feature for all submissions (in my usual long ones of course: but short too). How about an optional field when submitting which adds an icon/time in full view (appearing like the NSFW, but below) with the time? It's a shame the usual suspects (YouTube/Google Video) don't add the full running time to the preview interface.
again, we think lots of people would do it, but I strongly doubt everybody would. As a general rule of web site maintenance it is best to design for the lowest common denominator.
