Quick explanation
Select the starting format, then enter or adjust the duration. Simple formats use one value in seconds, minutes or hours. H:M:S and D:H:M:S use separate fields to enter hours, minutes, seconds and days when needed.

Need to add several durations?
Use the duration adder to enter separate durations and calculate their total automatically.
Additional information
How to use the duration converter
First choose the format of the duration to convert: seconds, minutes, hours, H:M:S or D:H:M:S.
For seconds, minutes and hours, use the main field or the plus and minus buttons to adjust the value. For compound formats, enter each part in its own field.
Which formats are available?
The tool accepts simple formats in seconds, minutes and hours. It also accepts compound H:M:S and D:H:M:S formats, which are useful when a duration is easier to enter in separate parts.
Why use D:H:M:S?
D:H:M:S lets you enter a long duration with days, followed by hours, minutes and seconds. It is useful when a duration goes well beyond 24 hours.
Can minutes and seconds be greater than 59?
Yes. In this converter, the minutes and seconds fields can contain values greater than 59. This makes it possible to convert values such as 110 minutes, 3600 seconds or any other non-normalized duration directly.
What do the results show?
The same duration is displayed in seconds, minutes, hours, days, H:M:S and D:H:M:S. Units are repeated next to the values to make the result easier to read.
When is this tool useful?
Use it to convert the duration of a video, workout, work session, meeting, cooking step, trip or schedule item.
It can also help convert hours into seconds for a technical calculation, or transform a large number of seconds into a readable duration.
Practical examples
90 seconds equals 1 minute 30 seconds. 110 minutes equals 1 hour 50 minutes. 1.5 hours equals 1 hour 30 minutes. A duration of 1 day, 2 hours and 30 minutes can be read as 1:2:30:0 in D:H:M:S format.
Difference with the duration adder
This converter transforms one duration into several formats. If you need to add several separate durations, use the duration adder instead.
