Answer 1

Here is my solution

public class MyDateFromat{
    public static void main(String args[]){
        String ytdate = "PT1H1M15S";
        String result = ytdate.replace("PT","").replace("H",":").replace("M",":").replace("S","");
        String arr[]=result.split(":");
        String timeString = String.format("%d:%02d:%02d", Integer.parseInt(arr[0]), Integer.parseInt(arr[1]),Integer.parseInt(arr[2]));
        System.out.print(timeString);       
    }
}

It will return a string in H:MM:SS format if you want to convert in seconds you can use

int timeInSedonds = int timeInSecond = Integer.parseInt(arr[0])*3600 + Integer.parseInt(arr[1])*60 +Integer.parseInt(arr[2])

Note: it can throw exception so please handle it based on size of result.split(":");
