The Time Span processor uses the .Net custom TimeSpan format in its input-format and output-format fields: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/standard/base-types/custom-timespan-format-strings

Its most common use is to convert a cue duration into milliseconds (the format string “fff”).

The Date Time processor uses the .Net custom DateTime format for both input-format and output-format: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/standard/base-types/custom-date-and-time-format-strings 

It also supports following keywords:

  • UNIX: unix time stamp in seconds

  • STW: unix time stamp in milliseconds

  • TICKS: 100-nanosecond intervals that have elapsed since January 1, 0001 at 00:00:00.000 in the Gregorian calendar
