string $build="",$timecode[];
int $time,$temp;
$time=currentTime -q;
$temp=$time/(60*60*$timeBase);
$time=$time -($temp*60*60*$timeBase);
if ($temp<10)
$build+="0";
$build+=($temp+":");
$temp=$time/(60*$timeBase);
$time=$time -($temp*60*$timeBase);
if ($temp<10)
$build+="0";
$build+=($temp+":");
$temp=$time/($timeBase);
$time=$time -($temp*$timeBase);
if ($temp<10)
$build+="0";
$build+=($temp+":");
if ($time<10)
$build+="0";
$build+=$time;
$timecode[0]=$build;
return $timecode;
