You could use an axWindowsMediaP layer control to get the length of a video as a Double type value. Then use the TimeSpan class to get a String formatted as "HH:MM:SS". You could modify the example to format it to include milliseconds too if needed.

I am not sure what the "FF" stands for in your post so, i`m not sure what to tell you for that.

Also, you will want to test any video formats that you want to use this for. The axWindowsMediaP layer control may not support some video formats.

Public Class Form1
    Private Sub Button1_Click(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
        AxWindowsMediaPlayer1.URL = "C:\test\vids\cc.avi"
    End Sub

    Private Sub AxWindowsMediaPlayer1_StatusChange(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles AxWindowsMediaPlayer1.StatusChange
        If AxWindowsMediaPlayer1.status.ToLower.Contains("playing") Then
            AxWindowsMediaPlayer1.Ctlcontrols.stop()
            Dim ts As TimeSpan = TimeSpan.FromSeconds(AxWindowsMediaPlayer1.currentMedia.duration)
            Me.Text = If(ts.ToString.Contains("."), ts.ToString.Remove(ts.ToString.IndexOf(".")), ts.ToString).ToString
        End If
    End Sub
End Class

FF is Frames and will vary depending upon the frame-rate of the video. Also - if working with 59.94 don't forget to account for drop-frame.
