I am developing a web application where a user can upload media files of format *.avi,*.mpeg ect. Now i have to calculate the run time of that media file and put the same in the database along with the file. The run time is something like when we run a avi file in media file we can see the total run time in status bar. i have to implement exactly that thing. i have no clue about how do do this stuff. I just found javax.sound api but that's not helpfull in my case.can somebody please suggest something.
There are various Java APIs for dealing with media formats, e.g. JMF from Sun (although I believe that's come to a dead end in its life), and QuickTime from Apple. Both can play various formats, and should be able to tell you how long the runtime is.
