RE: How would I go about getting the duration of a Windows Media Fileusing Lua?

Hello Mike,

I don't believe that you will find what you are looking for directly
within the Lua language yourself.  I think you would need to either find
or make and extension module that contains the needed functionality.  I
don't really know what is or isn't in LuaCOM but you may indeed find
what you are looking for in some augmented package.

I'm also new to Lua but so far it seems very much designed to be
extended.  So if you can't find previous work that you can leverage, the
facilities are there to add it in without "too much" work (depending on
your skill set).

I'm new to Lua.  I'm working on a script that needs to find out the
duration of a WMV file.  How would I do this?  Is there a way to
interact with windows.  Is LuaCOM the way to do this?
