Time Display

A little request:
wouldn't it be possible in the event list table to display instead of 'Secs' the normal time, as hh:mm:ss? having '833 secs' for an event is not as self-explanatory as '13 minutes and 53 seconds'

I think that value is used with ffmpeg so the table might not be able to be changed but it would be simple to have the web page display this way to you.

Yes, actually I meant the table in the webpage. Only in the console, the GUI should be hh:mm:ss displayed, instead of secs only. Thanks.

that time is the time after the start of event time, maybe a calc could be applied to add that to the start time, but it is used that way by others (me for example) so id prefer it not to change

Better have a setting then in the options, to have the user select from a few possibilities to see the duration of an event in the "events" window's list. A combo box with "secs only", "minutes:seconnds", "hours:minutes:seconds" and "days:hours:minutes:seconds" would be just enough.
The duration of the event would in my opinion, the full set containing the pre and post frames. If there's no such data, a new calulated column in the events window would be good, eventually with the options above.
