Because the source engines internal functionality to calculate the length of a sound file fails, I decided to write my own extension, that handles the calculation. I've spent allot of time into this.
I came out with an extension which is able to read various kind of information out of mp3 files or files in general that have the id3 tag besides of the sound length.
Note: it probably can't read VBR encoded mp3's accurate in some cases.
If the library doesn't load on Windows install this:
Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 SP1 Redistributable Package (x86)
Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 SP1 Redistributable Package (x64)
If it says "libz.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory" read this post:

Here is a list of things it can read:
- sound length
- bit rate
- sampling rate
- Artist (Id3)
- Title (Id3)
- Sound Num (Id3)
- Year (Id3)
- Album (Id3)
- Commend (Id3)
- Genre (Id3)
I think this is very useful for plugins like saysounds
Enjoy
Example code
PHP Code:
new Handle:soundfile = OpenSoundFile("funnysounds/myfunnysound.mp3");
if (soundfile == INVALID_HANDLE) {
PrintToServer("Invalid handle !");
return Plugin_Handled;
}
PrintToServer("Sound Length: %f seconds", GetSoundLengthFloat(soundfile));
CloseHandle(soundFile);
Function List:
PHP Code:
