# Get Media Length

## Overview

![The Get Media Length Node when Object and Seconds are selected in the Attributes.](https://1553081948-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FU990HLHWA30dTfELtDUK%2Fuploads%2Fgit-blob-9ac0b40294dcdcc56082608be5db64ab170b4c3b%2Fgetmedialengthnode20241.png?alt=media)

The **Get Media Length Node** returns the duration of a **Media Object** or **Asset** either in `Seconds` (**Video** & **Audio**) or in `Frames` (**Video** only). The **Node's** input and output change depending on what is selected in its **Attributes**.

[**Scope**](https://docs.incari.com/incari-studio/overview#scopes): **Scene**, **Function**, **Prefab**.

## Attributes

![The Get Media Length Node Attributes.](https://1553081948-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FU990HLHWA30dTfELtDUK%2Fuploads%2Fgit-blob-6e4d86597dc9330b882971652781f73767afaf13%2Fgetmedialengthatts.png?alt=media)

| Attribute    | Type         | Description                                                                                                                                                                                     |
| ------------ | ------------ | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| `Input Type` | **Dropdown** | Gives the options for the **Node's** input type. It can be either `Object` or `Asset`. Selecting `Object` will lead to an `Object ID` input. Selecting `Asset` will lead to a `Media ID` input. |
| `Format`     | **Dropdown** | Gives the options for the **Node's** output type. It can be either `Seconds` or `Frames`.                                                                                                       |
