VBR MP3 duration miscalculation
Does anyone else have a problem with Sage's idea of the duration of VBR MP3 files? For me, it shows the file to be about 30-40% longer than it is, and then plays silence for the overrun...
This makes it a bit difficult for me for sage to play my MP3's, at least not without manually switching the track when the music stops! (my MP3's are encoded with LAME --alt-preset standard) And what are the odd start/stop times on the duration bar? |

I have the same exact problem but never realized that it was caused by the duration being miscalculated. Most of my MP3s are VBR encoded with LAME as well.

Done a quick test:
128Kbit CBR with LAME: correctly calculated 132Kbit ABR with LAME: incorrectly calculated... I think it takes the bitrate of the first MP3 frame, and then applies it to the entire file... Sage.log Quote:
130ABR.mp3 is calculated as 20m39s (it is actually 4m18s) I have submitted a bug on this... |

Guess I'll dredge up this old thread.
The problem is still there in v6.0.18 ![]()

I sent a note in to Sage support as well. Maybe they'll figure out something simple other than all of us going back to CBR encoding.
