    I've created a custom track asset and a custom track clip which work fine except for when I attempt to retrieve the duration of the clip like so;

    Code (CSharp):
    1. float progressRate = (float)playable.GetTime () / (float)playable.GetDuration();
    GetTime works fine and returns the current time in the clip but GetDuration returns 0.

    Is that playable for a clip or mixer? If it's the playable for a clip, that's odd, and likely a bug.

    The duration isn't set on a default mixer playable, but you could do that in CreateTrackMixer() if you need it. But, the time on a mixer playable isn't necessarily synced to the timeline time.

    Seems like it was an issue with a custom Playable track that was also adding an activation track to the graph. It seems by doing this, GetDuration() was returning 0.
