Description

Describe your suggested feature

Some extractors include file size metadata in the stream info (e.g., debrid-backed extractors). Cloudstream currently ignores this even when present. Opt in setting could be added to show this metadata when available. Could display alongside show title and player resolution. Example shown below

Research direction

Start by tracing extractor-provided stream info into the player UI, where the title and resolution are shown, and locate the settings entry point for an opt-in option. Done means enabled users see available file-size metadata alongside the existing playback details, while streams without that metadata remain unaffected.
