I am sure it is an old chestnut but it is proving difficult to pin down.

The target usage is for Michas music cart and generating the button file outside of Michas. It is a very convenient text kind of file and the lines obvious.

I have looked at the mp3 header and have the WIKI page but still can't see any direct/indirect method for calculating duration. I do see problems if it takes a un-encoding process to find the length. Counting the blocks is not too much of a problem, as long as I can spot them.
