CD Ripper - [length] fields ripping as 'blanks' (ie no data) in the output file name

[IOW1970]

MY PROBLEM (Ripping and Converting)
When attempting to include a track’s duration in the output filename / directory string all available fields appear to be empty or “blank” (i.e. [length]; [length_mmss]; [length_hhmmss]).

This problem exists with each CD I have tried...

I'm a new user, having installed dbpoweramp in Win XP SP3 so that I can make ALAC versions of 6 BWAV files without having to install the dreaded iTunes.

I know little about the ALAC format but assume it provides room for simple tags like Item/Track *blooper*, Artist, Title.
