in & out slider value in status bar and CPU usage meter?

It's possible that I'm overseeing something, but it would be really great if it's possible to show the current value of the in & out sliders in the status bar underneath the preview window.

I'm always messing around to get these sliders at the right position because (control + i & control + o) don't always do the trick when a movie is playing.

I would like to see the values of effect in & out and movie in & out displayed somewhere...

Next to this feature request i'd also like to see a CPU usage indicator somewhere (possibly next to the clock?). When i'm using lots of effects the output sometimes slows down or it sometimes even stops for a couple of frames because my P4 3.0Ghz can't handle the workload... It might also come in handy to have a FPS indicator next to the CPU usage indicator...

I don't know what the extra overhead of these features would be, but it would be nice if people could turn this extra feature off by flipping a switch in the preferences window...

What does everybody think about these features?

Cheers & keep up the good work!

in & out slider value would be a great thing to help us make on real time better loop's inside long movies

You can view fps with [ctrl][alt] if you use dvd-max type output (otherwise it shows up on your output)

yeah it,s kinda hard to fine-tune the in/out points at the moment, i,d like to radially change how they work but i,maffraid it,s close to the bottom of our todo list.

FPS or cpu usage indicator are a great idea, I would say ANYTHING could just tell you "HEY YOU ARE RUNNING OUT OF RESOURCE", if you start adding effects layers and a lot of midi actions every cpu out there gets overloaded at a certain point (dual core support would also help!).
