A command-line tool to calculate the length of all the audios/videos in a directory
ffmpeg package is required for this package to work, so you need to get it installed on your system
To install ffmpeg on ubuntu
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:mc3man/trusty-media
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install ffmpeg
sudo apt-get install frei0r-plugins
For other OS read instruction here
hit up your terminal and type following command
$ pip install --user playlist-length
or
$ pip install --user -e git+https://github.com/karansthr/playlist-length#egg=playlist-length
if your ~/.local/bin/ is not in PATH then run
$ export PATH=$PATH:${HOME}/.local/bin/
you may add above line of code in ~/.zshrc or ~/.bashrc etc. to repeat above step every time a terminal is opened.
To get length of all the videos in a directory, Give the path to directory as arguement
$ playlistlen path_to_directory
or use following command for current directory
$ playlistlen
By default, it will look for videos in given directory and it's sub-directories recursively, if you want it to look in the given directory only, then use --no-subdir flag, for example:
$ playlistlen path_to_directory --no-subdir
By default the media-type it will look for is video but you can specify audio or both
$ playlistlen path_to_directory --media-type audio
$ playlistlen path_to_directory --media-type both
for help use -h or --help, for example
$ playlistlen --help
