1.download DirectShowLib,I use the version DirectShowLibV2-1
its website:
http://directshownet.sourceforge.net/
and download page:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/directshownet/files/
2.using the lib in c#
3.code using MediaDet class
reference:

C#

using System.Runtime.InteropServices;
using DirectShowLib;
using DirectShowLib.DES;

code:

C#

public static string GetDuration(string fileName)
            {
                var mediaDet = (IMediaDet)new MediaDet();
                DsError.ThrowExceptionForHR(mediaDet.put_Filename(fileName));
    
                // find the video stream in the file
                int index;
                var type = Guid.Empty;
                for (index = 0; index < 1000 && type != MediaType.Video; index++)
                {
                    mediaDet.put_CurrentStream(index);
                    mediaDet.get_StreamType(out type);
                }
    
                // retrieve some measurements from the video
                double frameRate;
                mediaDet.get_FrameRate(out frameRate);
    
                var mediaType = new AMMediaType();
                mediaDet.get_StreamMediaType(mediaType);
                var videoInfo = (VideoInfoHeader)Marshal.PtrToStructure(mediaType.formatPtr, typeof(VideoInfoHeader));
                DsUtils.FreeAMMediaType(mediaType);
                var width = videoInfo.BmiHeader.Width;
                var height = videoInfo.BmiHeader.Height;
    
                double mediaLength;
                mediaDet.get_StreamLength(out mediaLength);
                //var frameCount = (int)(frameRate * mediaLength);
                //var duration = frameCount / frameRate;
    
                return mediaLength.ToString();
            }
