🧾 In a few words
You can check your playlist duration using audio files or streaming services. Be mindful of how seconds are shown (or hidden), especially when you're close to the limit.
🔍 Details
🎧 If you have audio files (MP3/WAV) on Windows Desktop:
- Go to the folder where your audio files are stored
- Select all the tracks for Side A (Ctrl + click or Shift + click)
- Right-click and choose "Properties"
- Go to the "Details" tab
- Look for the field called “Length” — this shows the total time of the selected files
- Repeat the process for the files on Side B
🖼️ (Refer to the image below for an example)
🌐 If you're using a streaming playlist (Spotify, Apple Music, YouTube):
- Most platforms show the total duration per playlist
- On Spotify Web or Desktop, the time is shown as minutes and seconds
- On Spotify Mobile, you'll only see the total in minutes (no seconds)
⚠️ Why this matters:
- If your playlist says “22 minutes” on mobile, it might actually be 22:45, which exceeds the maximum limit
- In that case, we'll have to contact you to cut songs or adjust the list — which delays your order
📌 Recommended buffer:
- Leave at least 1 minute of margin below the suggested limit
- Example: if the recommended limit is 20 minutes per side, aim for 19 minutes max

🧠 Pro tip
💡 Use the file duration on Windows to get the most accurate result — especially if you're working close to the maximum time allowed per side.
