Bug Description
Binary package hint: rhythmbox
For variable bit rate MP3 files such as those lame calls ABR or VBR, program uses a very inaccurate estimate of the bit rate of the file to calculate the time duration of the audio. Programs that do not suck provide an option to find the true duration of such files, it takes longer but not much longer on today's computers. This program does not seem to provide such an option.
