Attachments:	Blender fps during playback example. Issue with fps dropped frame indicator

Description Unknown 2016-01-28 20:40:51 UTC

Sometimes the effects applied to a clip in the timeline can slow playback down, or even working with 4K footage makes playback a little choppy. One nice thing about Blender is that it shows the playback frames-per-second in the top left hand corner; so if the playback speed is less than intended (say, if it's playing back at a rate of 19 frames per second in a project that should be playcing 24 frames per second), it shows the current fps rate in red, and then in the default text color when the playback is on par with the project's intended playback rate.

Having this as an option in the new Monitor overlay feature would be a very useful benefit.

Reproducible: Always

Great that this feature is implemented! One issue: it's coming up with this when I play it in overlay. (See following attached image.)

It looks like the issue mentioned above is only for the clip monitor. Project monitor seems to work just fine... and it's awesome. :)
