Thanks a lot for the info. Well, the timing (indeed) isn't that important. Just to know; if I have say 600MB of MP3 is this 8 hours, 10 hours, a day? Maybe amongst the tools you mentioned is one which enables me to get this info out of a playlist. Thanks onesmore Frank -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
