hi

Ok thanks for you prompt and helpful reply.

I think a ‘convert in the background’ switch in the option panel would be brilliant.

I’ve already set my codec options in the convert panel. I always want it to convert my files according to the options I've set so it’s hard to see why it would need to keep opening.

I could open the interface itself I needed to. Presently the interface opens automatically for no real purpose , as far as I can see.

If I have several small downloads the interface keeps popping up every time it starts download and every time it finishes one. All I will do is to close it again , as I don't need it to open.

I have 10 small files downloading , and I want them all to be converted I just don't need a popup each time one starts converting and each time one finishes. I just need it to get on with the converting without me having to make 10 close interface when it starts , and 10 more when it finishes. After a very short time this could become tiresome.

Just my impressions.

How about putting checkbox 'Hide window when converting' on converting dialog? And do you need to know when all your downloaded files become converted when this window is hidden?

Hi

Thanks very much for getting back.

Yes , a 'Hide Window When Converting' check box on the conversion interface would do the job perfectly.

As long as it was remembered in the program as part of the user settings so that it would always remain ticked.

This would mean that the conversion screen would only open when the user opened it manually from the main interface. As long as the conversion interface doesn't keep popping up all the time. Once I've set the codecs settings I don't need it to open again at all.

Yes it would be helpful to know when downloads were complete somehow , some indication on the main interface. Or I could open the dialog manually to check status I think.

Or , better , the progress column on the main interface could say 'Dowloading' , 'Converting' or 'Done' for each file.

Convert downloads automatically UI functionality was slightly modified in version 2.1.4:
- converting dialog is shown only after start of first downloaded file and after finish of all downloaded files
- for converting profiles without transcoding and audio converting, converting dialog is shown only once after first downloaded file because such converting is enough fast (less than 30 seconds)
- decided not to implement 'Hide Window When Converting' checkbox because there are already enough settings and always hiding converting dialog may confuse users why CPU usage is high, but no action is shown.
