VAST-2.0-duration-format

<Duration> value does not match HH:MM:SS[.mmm] format

ErrorValuesIAB VAST 2.0 §2.4.1VAST 2.0 and later (all versions)

VAST requires duration values to follow the `HH:MM:SS` or `HH:MM:SS.mmm` format. Plain English values like `"30 seconds"` or bare numbers like `"30"` are not valid and will cause players to fail to parse the duration.

How to fix

Rewrite the duration in HH:MM:SS format, e.g. 00:00:30 for 30 seconds or 00:01:30 for 90 seconds. Optionally append milliseconds: 00:00:30.500.

Invalid

<Duration>thirty seconds</Duration>

Valid

<Duration>00:00:30</Duration>
