Get video duration with mediaelementjs

I'm using mediaelementjs library for a project.

HTML

<video width="640" height="360" id="player1" preload="none">
    <source type="video/youtube" src="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nOEw9iiopwI" />
</video>

Javascript / jQuery

$('audio,video').mediaelementplayer({

    loop: false,
    features: ['playpause','progress','volume'],
    success: function(player, node) {

        $('#' + node.id + '-mode').html('mode: ' + player.pluginType);
        console.log(player.duration);    
    }
});

but console.log(player.duration) return always 0 So i think that maybe something wrong.

How can i get the video duration(in seconds) of video with mediaelementjs library?

Help me please.

You are probably getting this because metadata of the media element is not yet loaded, checking after adding a event listener to that should solve the problem:

success: function(player, node) {

    $('#' + node.id + '-mode').html('mode: ' + player.pluginType);
    player.addEventListener('loadedmetadata', function(){
        console.log(player.duration);    
    });

}
