playing length.

There is a HOWTO on calculating this on the FreeDB site, as well as 
various other bits of information (FreeDB is the free implementation 
of the now commercial CDDB - it uses the same techniques and 
protocols). Perhaps the DKV uses the CDDB technique, but as someone 
else said it could also use other information on the CD such as the 
article number?

The howto is available here - http://www.freedb.org/modules.php?
