Finding Duration of an MP3 file in Java

Question

OK so I have tried using ID3 tags to get the duration and I also tried using JMF media player.getDuration().

player.getDuration().getSeconds()

Answer 1

I using this lib and this code :

File f = new File("path/mp3");
    MediaLocator ml = null;
    Player p = null;
    try {
        ml = new MediaLocator(f.toURL());

        p = Manager.createPlayer(ml);
        p.start();
        while (true) {
            Thread.sleep(1000);
            System.out.println("Media Time :: "+p.getMediaTime().getSeconds());
            System.out.println("Duration :: "+p.getDuration().getSeconds());
            if(p.getMediaTime().getSeconds() == p.getDuration().getSeconds())
                break;
        }
        p.stop();
        p.deallocate();
        p.close();
    } catch (NoPlayerException e) {
        e.printStackTrace();
    } catch (IOException e) {
        e.printStackTrace();
    } catch (InterruptedException e) {
        e.printStackTrace();
    }

Good luck.
