total time

[Supra]

i know how to get filesize (using filelen) but don't how to get total
time. i am using mpegs or songs. i can retreived filename but not total
times in listhbox.
i done in vb6 b4.

300 = 30 sec
71277=1 min 11sec
2941584=49 min 01 sec
if i do in math ....2941584\100 0\60=49.01 instead of 49:01
71277\1000\60=1 .18 instead of 1.11.
can ne 1 gives me an hints?

Filesize in itself has little to do with the length of the clip in your
file. My guess is you'll need to figure out the bitrate and use that in
combination with the filesize to figure our the length. For example, 2
clips of the same length using different bitrates will give you 2
different filesizes (i.e. a MP3 file of 320KBps wil be twice as large as
a 160Kbps one).
