Believe it or not=85 as far as I know you can only find duration in a =
really obscure way in Bridge.=20
- select the video
- get info (command i)
- select the Advanced tab in the metadata box
- under XMP Dynamic Media properties you'll see duration
- there are two values:
	- scale (for example 1/2997)
	- value (for example 36100)

Now the fun part. The duration of the clip is value/scale =3D approx 12 =
seconds.
you'll also see this in the XML code under the Raw Data tab.

Now, why Adobe doesn't use this data and add a row called duration with =
the calculations already done=85 well, I dunno.

Yes=85 pretty much unusable as is.
