you can get the total number of samples with metaflac --show-total-samples file.flac then get the sample rate with metaflac --show-sample-rate file.flac divide the first by the second and that gets you the number of seconds. there is also a perl module Audio::FLAC that does all this: http://search.cpan.org/~daniel/Audio-FLAC-0.7/FLAC.pm Josh __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
