We get the youTube Video duration in below way from Youtube V3 API.
"contentDetails": {
"duration": "PT15S",
"dimension": "2d",
"definition": "sd",
"caption": "false",
"licensedContent": true,
"projection": "rectangular"
},
Now, We need to convert the duration to number of seconds.
Following are Simple PHP Function which convert the API V3 video duration format to number of seconds.
function duration($ytDuration) {
$di = new DateInterval($ytDuration);
$totalSec = 0;
if ($di->h > 0) {
$totalSec+=$di->h*3600;
}
if ($di->i > 0) {
$totalSec+=$di->i*60;
}
$totalSec+=$di->s;
return $totalSec;
}
$youtubeTime = 'PT15S';
echo duration($youtubeTime);//15
$youtubeTime = 'PT2M55S';
echo duration($youtubeTime);//175
$youtubeTime = 'PT1H35M23S';
echo duration($youtubeTime);//5723
