What happened when you tried that?

[Saran185]

i got the return value as time i.e. for eg: time@173ec72..now wat should i do to get the value as seconds or milliseconds. .. i am not sure whther the function getDuration returns the correct time length of the audio file.

Have you read the API for the javax.media classes you are using?
JMF 2.0 API (03/10/01)

What class is the returned value from Player#getDuration()?

What methods does that class have?

[Saran185]

the getDuration method is in player class. Other methods are getmediaTime()
getStopTime(), get Mediananoseconds().
the method getduration are imported from javax.media.Duration.
I invoked it as player.getDuartion().
