I would like to request to be able to see what speed a particular source is streaming or more technically "uploading" at.
For example a video has multiple sources, and depending on location and server load can determine how much bandwidth that source can dedicate to your connection. So If I connect to source 1 and look at the video information provide by the OSD, this new feature would provide an easy visual indicator of the stream upload strength similar to many online games, so the user could tell easily if the stream is optimal or might experience interruptions. (1 small red bar for poor stream speeds, 2 yellow bars for average stream speeds, 3 green bars for excellent stream speeds)
Also, the exact value of that the client is downloading from the source could be listed in the "on screen video diagnostics" in Kbps or Mbps.
Another great option would be if the indicator values could be modified to a users liking under settings.
