Calculates the duration in seconds of a .mp3 file. Also displays the associated layer, bitrate, sample rate of the file.
I’ve bundled the function into a project to display how it should be called. This function does not read id3 tags. Search Visual Basic World for ‘id3 tag’.
Much thanks to Predrag Supurovic’s page on MPEG frame headers (http://www.dv.co.yu/mpgscript/mpeghdr.htm)
Original Author: Darren J. Prior
Inputs
the full filename of a .mp3 file. eg: d:artistalbum rack1.mp3
The function does not perform any error checking so will fail if it is not a
valid mp3 file.
Assumptions
read the web page mentioned earlier for more info on mp3 frames.
Returns
see inside the function for the mp3_ variables that are generated.
Side Effects
no error checking of file
