If you're importing MP3's, the length will often be wrong. I had to solve this problem by converting the MP3's to linear .wav files and importing those. Then the lengths are correct.
There is another problem that can happen if you're importing a large file copied via the Internet: the Apache server can time out before all of the file arrives, resulting in a truncated Rivendell file. The solution is to increase the timeout in Apache.

Hello, I am trying to implement a Rivendell system in my organization. I work for a intercontinental radio association. In that case we share and broadcast programs from a lot of different radios and we do not control all the prodution processes. I came to my point. A radio send us a daily program but the metadata seems corrupt. It shows a length of 1 hour but the real audio length is 15 min. I import it with a rivendell dropbox, and when rivendell create a log, it mess up the playlist with the faulty lenght (creating time with nothing sheldue) Passing the audio track in a tag editor fix the issue, for example: $ mp3val audio.mp3 -f I would like to keep the automated function of the dropbox: Drag the file and no more to do to import and create the log Is there a possibility to add this function easily to the dropbox script used by rivendell. Thanks Charly
