RE: [PHP] PHP/M3U Questions!!!

Ok that makes sense definitely. I guess I wonder. How would I code something so I could find out the number of frames in a particular mp3 so I could generate the m3u file? I've seen a lot of this stuff implemented in PERL, however I'm not familiar with PERL that much, so it wouldn't matter. PHP-wise, any ideas on how to find that number of frames? --chris -----Original Message----- From: Kurth Bemis [mailto:kurth@usaexpress.net] Sent: Tuesday, April 17, 2001 4:54 PM To: cuzo@mediaone.net; PHP General List (E-mail) Subject: Re: [PHP] PHP/M3U Questions!!!
