Formatting Video Lengths

I could not find a way to format the duration of my videos on demand, so I just wrote a simple function. It’s probably not the most efficient but it gets the job done. Felt like sharing, maybe I can save someone 5 minutes. Or maybe ten if they spend five on google searches.
cheers


Function formatTime(duration) as String
    time_string = ""
    hours = Int(duration/3600)
    minutes = Int(duration/60)
    minutes = minutes - (hours*60)
    seconds = duration - (minutes * 60) - (hours*3600)
    if(hours.tostr() <> "0")
        time_string = hours.tostr() + "h "
    End If
    if(minutes.tostr() <> "0")
        time_string = time_string + minutes.tostr() + "m "
    End if
    if(seconds.tostr() <> "0")
        time_string = time_string + seconds.tostr() + "s"
    End if
    return time_string
End Function
