Disclaimer: This works for me, but backup your Everything-1.5a.ini (just in case). You will need to use Everything v1327a as well.
If you add [iflen:$length:," Length: "[formatduration:$length:] after your statusbar_selected_item_format= line, video file duration times will appear in the status bar. My entire line looks like this:
Note: I added a couple of extra spaces after the =$f part so the Length displayed won't be too crowded.
BTW: I asked @void a few days ago how to prevent Everything from showing leading zeros in duration times, because they're kind of annoying to me. He pulled through just a few days later (he's awesome like that). To disable leading zeros, perform the following 3 steps (you will need to wait a few seconds between each of the following steps):
1. Copy and paste /duration_format= in the Search Edit field, then press Enter.
2. Copy and paste /duration_auto_format_hours=h:mm:ss in the Search Edit field, then press Enter.
3. Copy and paste /duration_auto_format_minutes=m:ss in the Search Edit field, then press Enter.
Now, whenever you select a video file in the Result List, the duration (Length) of that video will be shown in the status bar. I like to know what resolution video files are (for example, 1920 x 1080), so this is my complete command:

Showing the sum of the length is on my TODO list.
Thank you for the suggestion.
I'm sorry, but doesn't $total-result-length:(requires length indexing) and $total-selection-length:(requires length indexing) already do this? As per Custom status bar formatting
I had forgotten about $total-result-length: and $total-selection-length:!
These statusbar formats are a little hacky.
I'm looking into an option to show the total length on the right in its own statusbar part to make this easier.
Ideally, this would be enabled by default.
Showing the total length will most likely require length indexing.
