i have the difficulty to read the metadata from a mp4 file. i want to know how long the video goes in seconds.

This file is located under assets/ to be precise the path is assets/test.mp4

  int getLength() {
    var file = File('./assets/test.mp4');

    // get the length
    var length;

    return length;
  }

You can use the video player plugin and use this code

https://pub.dev/packages/video_player

VideoPlayerController controller = VideoPlayerController.file('fileNameHere');
await controller.initialize();

print(controller.value.duration);

Use this plugin flutter_ffmpeg: ^0.4.2

print("Duration: ${info.getMediaProperties()['duration']}");

final FlutterFFprobe _flutterFFprobe = new FlutterFFprobe();

 _flutterFFprobe.getMediaInformation("<file path or uri>").then((info) {
     print("Media Information");

     print("Path: ${info.getMediaProperties()['filename']}");

     Map<dynamic, dynamic> tags = info.getMediaProperties()['tags'];
     if (tags != null) {
         tags.forEach((key, value) {
             print("Tag: "   key   ":"   value   "\n");
         });
     }

     if (info.getStreams() != null) {
         List<StreamInformation> streams = info.getStreams();

         if (streams.length > 0) {
             for (var stream in streams) {
                 print("Stream id: ${stream.getAllProperties()['index']}");
