It is documented as 'Will return number of milliseconds since boot time.' but it seems to return the time since the application was started...whatever..
I wrote the following to parse it into a (more) human readable form.
The coding is deliberately long winded for ease of understanding; like : if SecsUp > (24 * 60 * 60) is written to show 24 hours * 60 minutes * 60 seconds...for speed you would be better to use SecsUp>86400 to save recalculating each time round.
Note also the use of the modulo operator '%' to get the balance of Secs remaining.
Enjoy!
