Re: Find out how long an MP3 is

I opened up an mp3 of mine with a hex editor and searched for the known length of the song, it wasn't listed. I also searched for just the seconds of the length and all instances of the seconds were not accompanied by anything remotely close to what looked liked the length of the song. I guess there's no way, at least that I know of, of finding the length of the mp3 without simply playing it. Or if there is a linux/windows utility that can open it, read the information and then display the length, but that would be a compiled utility. -- Thomas Deliduka IT Manager ------------------------- New Eve Media The Solution To Your Internet Angst http://www.neweve.com/
