Convert timestamp to time and keep seconds, minutes and hour - php

Question

I have a function to convert timestamp to real hour, minute and second, I would to keep the format like: hh:mm:ss even if it is only some minutes and seconds, I should get 00:10:32 instead of 10:32:
// format can be either : or blank
function toTime($timestamp, $format)
{
$hours = floor($timestamp / 3600);
$minutes = floor($timestamp % 3600 / 60);
$seconds = $timestamp % 60;
if($format == ':') {
$hourDuration = sprintf('%02d:', $hours);
//echo 'hour: '.$hourDuration.'<br />';
$minDuration = sprintf('%02d:', $minutes);
//echo 'min: '.$minDuration.'<br />';
$secDuration = sprintf('%02d', $seconds);
//echo 'sec: '.$secDuration.'<br />';
$HourMinSec = $hourDuration.$minDuration.$secDuration;
} else {
$hourDuration = sprintf('%02d h', $hours);
//echo 'hour: '.$hourDuration.'<br />';
$minDuration = sprintf('%02d m', $minutes);
//echo 'min: '.$minDuration.'<br />';
$secDuration = sprintf('%02d s', $seconds);
//echo 'sec: '.$secDuration.'<br />';
$HourMinSec = '';
}
if($hourDuration > 0){
$hourDuration = $hourDuration;
} else {
$hourDuration = '';
}
if($minDuration > 0){
$minDuration = $minDuration;
} else {
$minDuration = '';
}
if($secDuration > 0){
$secDuration = $secDuration;
} else {
$secDuration = '';
}
//$HourMinSec = $hourDuration.' '.$minDuration.' '.$secDuration;
$HourMinSec = $hourDuration.$minDuration.$secDuration;
return $HourMinSec;
}
This function is used to get a video timestamp like: 1508.7397460938, and I would like to sort out, how many hours, minutes and seconds are in that video
Thanks for your assistance

Answer 1

I would have done it that way
function toTime($timestamp, $format)
{
$hours = floor($timestamp / 3600);
$minutes = floor($timestamp % 3600 / 60);
$seconds = $timestamp % 60;
if($format == ':') {
$hourDuration = sprintf('%02d:', $hours);
//echo 'hour: '.$hourDuration.'<br />';
$minDuration = sprintf('%02d:', $minutes);
//echo 'min: '.$minDuration.'<br />';
$secDuration = sprintf('%02d', $seconds);
//echo 'sec: '.$secDuration.'<br />';
$HourMinSec = $hourDuration.$minDuration.$secDuration;
} else {
$hourDuration = sprintf('%02d h', $hours);
//echo 'hour: '.$hourDuration.'<br />';
$minDuration = sprintf('%02d m', $minutes);
//echo 'min: '.$minDuration.'<br />';
$secDuration = sprintf('%02d s', $seconds);
//echo 'sec: '.$secDuration.'<br />';
$HourMinSec = '';
}
if($hourDuration > 0){
$hourDuration = $hourDuration;
} else {
$hourDuration = ($format == ':' ? '00:' : '00 h');
}
if($minDuration > 0){
$minDuration = $minDuration;
} else {
$minDuration = ($format == ':' ? '00:' : '00 m');
}
if($secDuration > 0){
$secDuration = $secDuration;
} else {
$secDuration = '00';
}
//$HourMinSec = $hourDuration.' '.$minDuration.' '.$secDuration;
$HourMinSec = $hourDuration.$minDuration.$secDuration;
return $HourMinSec;
}
In that case it would bring you the following result for adding
echo toTime(1508.7397460938);
Output --> 00 h25 m08 s
echo toTime(1508.7397460938,':');
Output --> 00:25:08
The other variant is to use the php ready function gmdate by typing:
echo gmdate("H:i:s", 1508.7397460938);
// Use that only if the amount of hours is less than 24 , that function would now show more than 24 hours and if so it would show inaccurate data.
