Hi!
I saved some data from an eye tracker and imported it into matlab, among these I am interested in the time stamp...I would like to understand how to transform the computer time stamp ('the Computer timestamp column contains the value of the win32clock "QueryPerformanceCounter"(QPC) in microseconds') which is in microseconds into a hh:mm:ss format, does anyone know how to do this ?
for example i want to convert this number "168892633108" in microseconds that it would be 04/05/2023 16:14:45
Thank you

Try this code:
% Example timestamp value in microseconds
timestamp_microseconds = 168892633108;
% Convert microseconds to seconds
timestamp_seconds = timestamp_microseconds / 1e6;
% Extract the number of whole seconds
whole_seconds = floor(timestamp_seconds);
% Calculate the remaining microseconds
microseconds = timestamp_microseconds - (whole_seconds * 1e6);
% Convert the number of whole seconds to a date string
date_string = datestr(whole_seconds/86400 + datenum(1970,1,1), 'dd/mm/yyyy HH:MM:SS');
% Display the result
disp(date_string);

Ran in:
You can convert a number of microseconds into a duration or (if you know the epoch time) into a date and time value.
M = 168892633108;
msPerSec = 1e6;
dur = seconds(M/msPerSec)
dur = duration
1.6889e+05 sec
You can change the display format of the duration array to see it in a different style. This doesn't change how the data is stored, just how it is displayed.
dur.Format = 'hh:mm:ss.SSSSSS'
dur = duration
46:54:52.633108
If I knew the epoch time (when the duration was relative to), for example 9 AM today:
E = datetime('today') + hours(9)
E = datetime
01-Jun-2023 09:00:00
I could create a datetime array using M and E.
dt = datetime(M, 'ConvertFrom', 'epochtime', 'Epoch', E, 'TicksPerSecond', msPerSec)
dt = datetime
03-Jun-2023 07:54:52
M represents a little under two days (as we can see from dur) and dt is a little under two days after E, so this seems reasonable.

How exactly do you know that? What relationship is there between 168892633108 and 04/05/2023?
@Steven Lord Because I am using an eye tracker and from this there is the possibility to export the saved data to an excel file. From here (as in the attached picture) you can see that it also saves the UTC date of the start of the recording. I am interested in the computer timestamp column (2nd in the picture), i.e. trying to convert that time as absolute time (as the 'clock wall'), but i don't want only the recording start time (that i have), i would like to see the ('clock wall') changing instant by instant.
I don't know what "avivio of windows" means and searching for "avivio" in Google didn't show any hits that appeared relevant.
Sorry...i want to say this..."The problem is that the number in microseconds corresponds to a relative time (QCP, i.e. a computer stamp from an eye tracker) independent of UTC, which is apparently relative to Windows start-up...so I wanted to know if there was a way from matlab to access this time, could you help me in this way?"

Okay. How are you importing the spreadsheet into MATLAB? Are you using the Import Tool to read the data (optionally also creating a MATLAB function file to automate the process)? If so select that you want to import those columns (the ones whose names start with Recording date and/or Export date) from the spreadsheet file as datetime arrays then use the datetime command I used (with 'epochtime' and 'TicksPerSecond').
If you're reading in manually, without using Import Tool, use the import options to control how MATLAB reads the data from the spreadsheet.
