I saw that this works but only if the duration is more than 1 hour, so i have the sign on the hours too, but in case of less that 1 hours the original string is like "00:-30" and with positive minutes i get "00:30" instead of "-00:30".
For now i find more simple to formatting the result string adding/removing the "-" sign if necessary.
