This is an addon for Blender that let's you calculate the amount of time needed to render an entire animation.

You have to input the time it takes to render 1 frame or 3 in advanced mode and the addon will calculate the time needed.

Features:

• Simple mode: Only one input, less accurate output
• Advanced mode: Multiple inputs, more accurate output
• Shows total time
• Shows remainig frames
• Shows remaining time
• Shows the estimated finishing time
• Shows progression

Limitations:

• You have to input the time needed to render one or more frames
• The time will be wrong of if it takes more time to render one part of the animation than the other (this is what advanced mode can mitigate)
• Changing the time while rendering complex scenes might cause Blender to freeze but it never crashed on me
