When to use HH:MM over MM:SS for times?

I'm a bit confused on when to use what time units in MacDive for various things. Is there a way to know which way it wants? I have been doing MM:SS everywhere (and thus for longer surface intervals, I just put in, say, 75:00) but I wasn't sure if that was right and couldn't quite figure it out :) For things like air consumption it certainly matters, but in general I've just kept to MM:SS in my logs for consistency. Still, I'd like to be doing it the correct way ;)

I'm putting in these numbers manually obviously as my dive computer (an Oceanic Veo 1.0) does not support syncing to a computer.

From memory it's just the surface interval that's in hh:mm, the rest should be mm:ss. I've been meaning to make this more consistent as it's rather confusing and inconsistent.
