This function is used to convert a timecode string into an integer value that the grandMA2 console understands. The integer value is the timecode string as a value of 30ths of a second. The timecode string can have any separator between the hours, minutes, seconds and frames, as long as there is a separator.

Code Example...
a = FormattedTimeToSeconds("00.00.05.00", "25")

The variable a would be assigned the value 150
