Vorbis is always VBR as it can't be made to be CBR. The bitrate quoted is what is reported in VLC and I have always assumed this to be ABR. MPC says this same file is 3:26. This is using the Haali front end for OGG/OGM and CoreVorbis. I know, that vorbis is always VBR. Nominal bitrate specifies app...

The bit rate of the file I just tried is 255 kb/s, with a file size of 6574025 and it is showing total time of 3:25 if that's helpful.
255 nominal or average? nominal != average

Right length for 255kb/s average bit rate is 3:21,41.

I don`t know. I dont`t like code reading. But i found this API documentation for developers: http://www.xiph.org/vorbis/doc/vorbisfile/fileinfo.html So information about average bitrate or total length of vorbis file is available via this functions. EDIT: Maybe algorithm use nominal bitrate instead ...

I see different variance e. g. 2:34 song looks in VLC like 2:41 song. Other 1:22 song looks in VLC like 1:02 song atc. So differences are more than 1s in both directions. Playback is without problems but at the end of song status bar looks like: 1:22/1:02. EDIT: I think VLC uses wrong algorithm to c...

VLC displays wrong duration (length) of vorbis file

Is there any chance to display right duration(length) info of vorbis file? Winamp has no problem with this, so i think it must use some other information to display right lengt of file.

2. The subs displayed in VLC do hold on screen longer, but I do not experience an overlap. This seems to be consistent with the text that is burned into the video. Ok. So where is problem?

The metadata (stream media info) can change during playback so it is little problematic (unless every change causes a new file to be created), but it is quite easy to implement (I am not sure if VLC can write tags). I used some software that created new file when the change occured. But there was p...

How to save stream media info

Is there any way, how to save stream media info into txt(xml) file or better directly into id3 tag? If i use VLC to save raw stream, it saves only audio data. The media info is only displaying on status bar. My idea of txt file structure is like this: 00:00:00 Artist1 Song 1 hh:mm:ss Artist2 Song 2 ...
