OK, maybe I put my question the wrong way:
I would like to display a stop watch starting at an arbitrary time in
the video (usually the collision of two cars for accident reconstruction
purposes). This can obviously be done via drawtext and pts, but the
result looks nasty, and I seem to have no control on the formatting of
the string displayed.
So possibly there is another way to acchieve this? Could I for example
store a string in a user-defined frame-wise variable and display its
value by drawtext as is done when deciphering the VITC:
ffmpeg -i sample-vitc.avi -filter:v
"readvitc,drawtext=fontfile=FreeMono.ttf:fontcolor=white:text=%{metadata\\:lavfi.readvitc.tc_str}:x=(w-tw)/2:y=400-ascent"
-f avi -codec:v huffyuv test.avi
(Code by Tobias Rapp)
Any help would be appreciated.

Hey,
seems to be an easy question, but I have been searching for the answer
quite a while without success:
If I perform a float calculation via
text=%{expr\:whatever}
is there any way to format the output the printf way?
I know, the result could be converted to integer and be formatted via
text=%{eif\:whatever\:d}
but this is restricted to integer results.
