Kev, did you mean?

import urllib.request

url = 'http://radio.hrt.hr/prvi-program/aod/download/118467/'
site = urllib.request.urlopen(url)

print( site.getheader('Content-Length'))    # None
x = site.read(1)                            # No 'Content-Length' header

print('File size:', site.length)

I am still not getting anywhere. :(

Regards.
