I did more tests. Totem seems to update music file length on the fly It also shows incorrect bitrate and length during first few seconds of playback, but then updates the information to reflect right length and average bitrate. Or in other words it determines the length, "on the fly", and it is correct On the other hand rhythmbox only queries length once, and never updates it
I hope this helps. This happens here with all MP3 that I have (All MP3 were recorded as WAV from TV card, tapes, etc, And were converted to MP3 using gnome's soundconverter.) I don't think I can post a mp3 due to copyrights -- variable rate mp3 have wrong length https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/271755 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
