I couldn't find a place for general feedback, so I hope this is an ok place to post this.

I was just looking for a Giant Bomb video that could last me precisely until I get off work, and noticed we can't know how long a video is until you start playing it. If the videos were somehow tagged with their total run time (maybe in text right after the date they were posted or whatever), that could open the door to some really useful tools. For example, imagine being able to filter videos by run time? Maybe not down to the minute, but in broad strokes like short, medium, long, and multi-part (for like archived super long streams, made up of separate videos for the same event).

With the video catalog growing as quickly as it is, being able to filter through is going to get more important for new users.

It's been this way for a while, unfortunately. I know there are places on the site where you can see the time stamp on a video, but not where we'd want them to be.
