The calculator uses a simple summation formula:

Explanation: The calculator sums all individual video durations and converts the total to a human-readable format (hours:minutes:seconds).
Details: Knowing the total length of a YouTube playlist helps content creators organize their content and helps viewers plan their watching time. It's particularly useful for educational content, workout routines, and music playlists.
Tips: Enter each video duration in seconds, one per line. You can typically find video lengths in the YouTube video description or below the video player. The calculator will sum all valid numeric values and ignore any non-numeric entries.
Q1: Where can I find video lengths on YouTube?
A: Video length is displayed below the video player on YouTube, typically in the format MM:SS or HH:MM:SS for longer videos.
Q2: How do I convert MM:SS format to seconds?
A: Multiply the minutes by 60 and add the seconds. For example, 5:30 becomes (5 × 60) + 30 = 330 seconds.
Q3: Can I use this for private or unlisted playlists?
A: This calculator requires manual input of video lengths, so it works for any playlist as long as you know the individual video durations.
Q4: Does this work for videos longer than 1 hour?
A: Yes, simply convert the time to seconds (1 hour = 3600 seconds, 1 minute = 60 seconds) and enter the total seconds.
Q5: What if some videos in my playlist are unavailable?
A: You should only include available videos in your calculation. The calculator cannot account for unavailable content.
