Inquire a file for length of movie

[Jerry Geis-2]

Is there a way with gstreamer to get the duration in minutes of the movie ?

In this case I don't want to play the file - just get the length of the movie.

Thanks,

Jerry

Hi Jerry

Take a look at gst_element_query_duration:

https://gstreamer.freedesktop.org/data/doc/gstreamer/head/gstreamer/html/GstElement.html#gst-element-query-duration

if you need to do it programmatically. For inspection purposes you may use gst-discoverer-1.0
