If you can install a command line tool onto your server, then grab and 
install mp3info: 
 
	ftp://metalab.unc.edu/pub/linux/apps/sound/mp3-utils/mp3info 
 
and then call it like this: 
 
	$s = `/path/to/mp3info -p '%S' /path/to/audio-file.mp3`; 
 
This will set $s to the length of the file, in seconds. 
 
You can also substitute '%S' for '%r' (bit rate), '%o' (stereo-ness), 
'%Q' (sampling rate) and various other things.
