I cant seem to get to the developer site of late so I'll add some comments and suggestions here and hope thats ok.
First - get the program - what I'm saying should not detract from the overall use/functionality - its a great program.
My use may not be average so bear that in mind.
I'm converting a very large number of mixed videos to MKV and have some issues with the batch process:
1. This procedure requires a drag/drop of the filenames - however this process is incredibly slow.
It looks like its evaluating each file as its dropped - this can take 40minutes for 150 files
BEFORE you can tell it to process them - AND it locks out both the source (explorer) and its gui while
doing it - Also it looks like its using almost no processor I/O or ram - its VERY slow.
Can I suggest the drag and drop for batch mode just creates a file list then does the processing after you
tell it what you want to do (meaning you don't have to sit around waiting for it? Actual processing is VERY fast - often 1-2 minutes tops)
The drag and drop time does not seem related to the file size. (which is odd)
2. when processing it frequently writes a 0KB file and fails to add warnings or errors. Going back and doing them manually
converts them correctly.
3. Remove all files doesn't work on batch files
4. I've had occasional issue with the job list not being cleared when I close the batch tabs on unprocessed files
(EVEN when reloading the program - it goes looking for the files to process)
5. Dropping 600 files crashes back to the desktop - AFTER its spent an hour "reading" the files
The batch processing works and is a godsend (Thanks) but a bit of a redesign would be a great help.
once again - thanks for a great program - I'd be lost without it.
If there's a better place for this please feel free to copy it there.
