When I download a video and play it, it seems like I'm watching a live stream or some kind of broadcast, the video doesn't indicate how much time is left until it ends, it only records the minutes that have passed, but not how many are left or what the total duration is.
Maybe i'm wrong and i could be doing some mistake sin the download procces.
reproduction steps
Download any YouTube video and play it in the Windows media player
