HVV integration shows delay in seconds, not in minutes

The problem

Currently the hvv integration shows the delay of a bus or train in seconds and not in minutes. I normally would think that the delay is represent as minutes, because on the hvv website the delay is also represented in minutes.

See example:

HVV webpage:

Actually I don't know if this is a real issue or "worked as design". Anyway I think it would be better, if the behavouir is the same as on their webpage.

We get the delay in seconds from the hvv api. The hvv website just converts it into minutes.
You can do that in your dashboard as well, I wouldn't change it to seconds just for visuals.

But, did you find it confusing? Maybe then we should add attribute descriptions to the documentation page so people know the delay is in seconds?

Technically you are absolutely right.
But I don't see any reason to have the delay in seconds. I think the delay from the api will always be an multiplier of 60 seconds.

For me it's okay to leave the delay in seconds. Your suggestion to update the documentation sounds great.
Will you update the documentation or should I create a Pull Request?

I will do that tomorrow

Thank you for your explanation and for updating the documentation.
In general thank you for the hvv integration.

I will close this issue. Have a nice weekend.
