campbell226 has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

Hi Im writing a program that needs the length of an videos (mostly avi) as input. I guess this could be done either through metadata or a calculation of framerates etc. I've tried modules FFmpeg and Image::ExifTool::TagNames but Im inexperienced and no amount of Googling is helping with this one. Could you please tell me which modules I should be using, or if you can point me to some code that would be great. Thanks Monks!
