What does this tool do?
Sixty seconds make a minute, so seconds divided by 60 gives decimal minutes. The frame count uses a constant frame rate and is a quick reference for video editing.
The Formula
Minutes = seconds ÷ 60; frames = seconds × frames per secondFrequently Asked Questions
How many minutes is 90 seconds?
90 ÷ 60 = 1.5 minutes, or 1 minute 30 seconds.
Does the frame count account for drop-frame timecode?
No. It multiplies seconds by a constant frame rate, which is exact for constant-rate footage but not for drop-frame timecode.
