BitRate & Lenght of Audio Video files in search result!
« on: November 05, 2009, 09:03:19 PM »

Why there are not (yet) BITRATE and LENGHT columns in search results when you search audio or video file?? (like eMule..)
Thanks to anyone that will answer, or better support this feature!

are you sure emule has it?
because i really don't understand how it can be done without implementing demuxers and codecs in the client... which is well beyond file-sharing functionality.

It does.

because i really don't understand how it can be done without implementing demuxers and codecs in the client... which is well beyond file-sharing functionality.
And it would be even more miraculous to analyze a file we don't have at all....  eD2k search responses usually (but not necessarily) contain metadata information (such as codec, length, bitrate, title, author, etc). Btw eMule has all the necessary tools to extract these informations from the file.

@bigdonut: aMule currently does not make use of any metadata, and it's not likely to change in the near future.

And I think it's not a vital thing!
