Wrong detection of movie's length

Perhaps it's already mentioned, but I noticed (in the latest version, I haven't checked older versions) a strange thing:
- the internal engine which gathers info from the movie reports the length to be 2 minutes shorter than it really is (every other detector, including the MedaInfo DLL, and player says the movies are 2 minutes longer).

It happens with all AVI movies?
The length is read from tha AVI headers; maybe that it is not very accurate or that there are several places where the length is stored.

Just added a bunch of new movies to my database and it seems, that not all are affected. It's also sometimes only 1 minute (that might be related to rounding up the length). But generally it seems to be 2 minutes.
