I recently upgraded a site from Drupal5 to Drupal6, including the Audio module. There were several years of files that had been uploaded weekly to the site using the D5 version of the module. All of the files that existed on the site before the upgrade are now showing as no more than 8MB, and stop playing after about 18 minutes, which equates to the 8MB at my level of MP3 encryption.

The files that are saved on the server are still the correct length, but are reported as 8MB if the actual size is greater than 8MB, and play as if they were 8MB.

Files that were uploaded after the upgrade are reported as the right length and play properly.

I am guessing that somehow during the migration, the MP3 getid3 information has gotten truncated. Any ideas how to fix this?

I FTPd a file from the server to my PC, and played it, and it played fine. I then edited the audio node, and GETID3 reported the file as the longer, correct length. (The time of the recordings were always reported correctly, but apparently ignored on playback.) I saved the edit, and now the file plays fine.

I can go through all 110 files and edit and save them, but is there a faster way to get GETID3 to recompute the lengths?
