--- Comment #2 from b...@mogwai.be ---
The issue here is that the duration of the enclosure is supposed to be set
correctly in the rss feed entry itself.  So the ultimate solution is to get the
author to set the duration correctly in the feed in the first place.
If the author hasn't done that, there is no way of knowing the length of the
episode until you have actually retrieved the file.

However, we can of course update the duration once an episode has been
downloaded.  The current version of Kasts does that when you start playing the
file.  I've just opened an MR to already probe for the duration as soon as the
file has been downloaded, which would already help a lot.
Unfortunately, it seems that a lot of people are directly streaming episodes
rather than downloading them first.  For those situations, there is no
solution: the wrong duration will be shown until they start playing the file. 
(I don't want to start probing/streaming every entry in a list just to get the
duration.  You would probably get banned for DoSing the service.)
