RE:
I am also interested in seeing this feature added back to the firmware.
It's on the MK3 printers, so the code to implement it already exists...probably commented out?
I found the commented-out code in Prusa-Firmware-Buddy/src/gui/screen_printing.cpp.
// Currently disabled, left in the code to ease re-enabling it
// case CurrentlyShowing::time_to_change:
// w_etime_label.SetText(_("Next change in"));
// w_etime_value.SetText(_(txt_na));
// w_etime_value.SetTextColor(GuiDefaults::COLOR_VALUE_INVALID);
// return;
This recent commit uncomments it! 👍

RE: MK4 LCD : Remaining time before color change ?
After installing the 6.0.0 alpha firmware on the XL5, I realized the filament change time has been added on its display ( picture below ) !
I have now good hope to enjoy soon this MK3 legacy feature also on the MK4 😉
RE:
Did we ever get traction on this subject? I recently purchased an MMU for my MK4 and was looking forward to this data upon first large scale print. Is there anything special I need to do to activate it on the LCD screen? At the time of this writing August 20, 2024 (Firmware 6.0.4) this still doesn't seem to be an available feature. Any news or updates?
