Description
### Problem to be solved
For long recordings, like several hours of bird recording, "nocmig", etc., there would be a very nice feature to see the timeline as time of day. You could then easily se _when_ something in the recording has happened.
This could also sort several (shorter) recordings on the right place (relative to each other) on the timeline, with correct gaps, with or without overlaps. Overlapping is also useful when comparing several sound sources, also usual for concert recordings. etc.
### Your idea
The starting timestamp should be resolved from the file name with a custom pattern, typically with YYYY, MM, DD, hh, mm, ss, etc. . Most/all recorders have a timestamp in the filename. It could also look up file metadata if present.
### Prior art
This is a feature of Raven Pro/Lite.
