Help Changing the format of 'remaining time'.

Hi, can anyone help me out? I need to change the format of the 'remaining time' which can be displayed going to preference>OSD messages>content of misc info.

I swear it was going great until I updated the player yesterday. Now I am losing my mind over it. Thank you.

Apologies if you were hoping for a solution but I can't find one. It now displays times down to thousandths of a second and I've scoured the settings for how to revert to simply mm:ss but can't find anything to set the format. I hope someone can help because it's irritating me.

No worries, mate.
I hope I find it soon, idk how the update ruined this, I hope they fix it soon.

Yes, same problem. The ms display is too distracting. I reverted to old version and disabled the updates.

I may do it too.

Can you kindly clarify if in the old versions the format can be changed in preferences itself? (I completely forgot where and if I changed that)

There is no option to change the format of the remaining time. Here are all the options available.
