When I press "o" to get the PlayerProcessInfo display, the video decoder is "mmal" but then the video bitrate is "unknown" on all my videos. The same is true for youtube and reddit addons, all videos are "mmal" and "unknown". I checked the PlayerDebug display through Ctrl+Shift "o" but it doesn't have the video bitrate either.
How do I display the video bitrate?
Thank you.
My setup: OSMC with Kodi 17.4 on RPi3

Did I post in the wrong place? Is my question vague or lacks some more info?

Maybe a screenshot and details of what you are expecting to see would help.

The Current video bitrate is the part on PlayerDebug where it says Mb/s:
If you want the Average video bitrate (reported by demuxer) as was shown in previous versions I don't think that info is available anymore.

The "Unknown" label you are referring to shows for me as "Surface", i.e. Mediacodec Surface. I believe the Average Video Bitrate which you are talking about is no longer available from 17 onwards as the whole Video Player was re-written from scratch.
