- It is easier to define a meaningfull lower bound than a meaningfull upper bound in video coding
- It is good to know that you shouldn't expect results any time soon
But in my opinion it doesn't really make sense for the normal End User
- The User wants to know when he can put the video on to the tablet and go away.
- The estimate isn't necessarily true, the time estimates can vary.
I would change that to either "approximately xx minutes remaining" or "calculating remaining time" until you have a better prediction (For me that was after about 5%)
I liked the clean interface, but i missed some "Power User" functionality. For example setting the audio and video quality independantly.
A short dropdown menu to select the encoding quality might also be handy.
But those are just some minor concerns. As far as conversion Programs go it seems pretty good.
