Finding the length of an mp3 file

Question

So i have the code:

import glob,os import random   path = 'C:\\Music\\' aw=[] for infile in glob.glob( os.path.join(path,'*.mp3') ):     libr = infile.split('Downloaded',1)        aw.append(infile) aww = -1 while 1:     aww += 1     print len(aw),aww      random.shuffle(aw)     awww = aw[aww]     os.startfile(awww) 

but all it does is go through all of the songs without stopping. I thought if I could find the length of the song that is currently playing, I could use the "time" module to keep going after the song is done with the (sleep) attribute. However, I couldn't find how to get the length of the song on windows. Does anyone know a solution to my probleme?

Answer 1

You can use mutagen to get the length of the song (see the tutorial):

from mutagen.mp3 import MP3 audio = MP3("example.mp3") print(audio.info.length)
