SRT and WebVTT timestamp formatting: vtt hour omission · case 04
WebVTT cues between one and sixty minutes are written with a redundant 00: hour prefix.
Case contract
Format integer milliseconds as a cue timestamp. Negative values clamp to 0. style "srt" gives HH:MM:SS,mmm (hours at least two digits, never wrapped); style "vtt" gives MM:SS.mmm when the hour field is zero and HH:MM:SS.mmm otherwise.
Why this case matters
Subtitle timing defects shift, hide or overlap captions that viewers depend on for comprehension and accessibility.
