SMPlayer doesn't show video bitrate

When I open any video, no matter what format, and click on the "i" button on the toolbar, this window opens:

Since my interface is in Bulgarian, I have added the red text to indicate where the bitrate is and what it reads: 0 kbps. The audio bitrate is displayed correctly, only the video bitrate is not.

SMPlayer's version is 20.4.2, build 9306.

But if I open any video file in POT Player in Windows, the video bitrate is shown correctly.

So, is that a bug or is it intentional? If it's intentional, how can I make it display the video bitrate?

If you're using mpv as multimedia engine, then it takes about 10 seconds to know the bitrate. You can enable the option "Options -> Status bar -> Bitrate info" to see the bitrate in real time.
