Dart/Flutter duration from milliseconds

Question

I need to display a timestamp in HH:mm:ss in Flutter. I don't understand what how to get it working.

 Duration duration = new Duration(
      days: 0, hours: 0, minutes: 0, seconds: 0, milliseconds: timestamp);
  print(duration);

I currently get something like this:

flutter: 305:26:50.086000

`Duration duration = new Duration(milliseconds: timestamp);` why don't you just do that? what's the expected output of yours? — danish-khan-I, Jul 20 '19 at 05:20
and how are you gonna do that?? you need a time from unixtime right or what? i tried your code and i get different results [here](https://dartpad.dartlang.org/0f9607ea2c72f7b6bcfbe9e78cca0bba) — danish-khan-I, Jul 20 '19 at 05:42
I'm comparing two timestamps. One is start one is current. And I need to show how many days, hours, minutes, seconds have lapsed during the two — Ciprian, Jul 20 '19 at 05:48

You can just remove the micro seconds and get it to work like this

print(duration.toString().split('.')[0]);
