Adding Timecodes in Excel












-1















I have about 140 cells (they are in a vertical column) containing Timecodes in the Format hh:mm:ss:ff.
There are 24 Frames per second.
I would like to add them, so I have a total duration of all extracts.
Can anyone tell me how I could do that in Micosoft Excel?
Any help is greatly appreciated, since I am literally clueless...Thanks so much in advance!!

  • What would a duration look like between, say, 00:01:07:07 and 00:01:07:09. Would it be measured as 2 frames or 1/12 second or what?

  • My lists consists of durations already, so it would be 00:00:00:2

You can get the duration in frames by doing some math. First you have to pick out each portion of the timestamp (Hours, Minutes, Seconds, and Frames), then just math that up to get the number of frames since some prior point in time (00:00:00:00). From that you can derive the duration each frame is from it's predecessor and sum the results for the total:

  • Thanks so much! Since I have to do it several times (sometimes only for three cells, sometimes for 40) that is a bit too much of a hustle. But thank you anyway :-)

This might not be the best way (or maybe it is?), but it works.




  1. Separate hh:mm:ss from ff.

  2. Sum hh:mm:ss and ff respectively.

  3. Add frames to hh:mm:ss.

    Thanks so much! I ended up just calculating without the frames with a very approximate number, but in a later phase of this project I will probably use this! Thank you :-)
