eg: if you are using firefox and watch a livestream, the widget wil display an incorrect time  instead of indicating it is live

This is due to Youtube providing incorrect length information; they should instead provide a Inf duration to indicate that it is a livestream. If you e.g. go to Twitch, the media player displays correctly there.
