1) is fixed in build 1186, i.e. There is shown time in the form Done/Estimation where Estimation is estimated time of the whole burning process. Re: 2) I think we should rather deprecate this because of issue 0003007. |

1) I'd slightly improve the text that's shown in the progress bar, currently there is: Burning... (x:xx/y:yy - e:\folder\file.ext) I'd suggest to show: Burning: xxx% done, z minutes remaining (e:\folder\file.ext) when z<2, it would change to: Burning: xxx% done, z seconds remaining (e:\folder\file.ext) and during the first couple of seconds (10?), the estimate wouldn't be shown, since it's rather unreliable, i.e.: Burning: xxx% done (e:\folder\file.ext) Note that currently the file path part of progress bar somehow blinks, probably because it's sometimes shown empty, it should be prevented. 2) I'd say that it could still make sense to implement this feature, but it isn't that urgent, we can track it as another issue. Assigning to Rusty to review. |

1) Sounds good, though I think it's ok to simply this even further to: Burning: hh:mm:ss remaining (E:\folder\file.txt) 2) I'll move this to a new bug. |
|
1) As discussed over IM, my initial proposal could be slightly better. |
|
I have implemented it according to Jiri proposal with slight modification: During the first 10 seconds the estimate is not shown, since it's rather unreliable as Jiri indicated, i.e. there is only 'Burning...( xxx% done, Writing e:\folder\file.ext)' then (after the 10 seconds) there is 'Burning...( xxx% done, z minutes remaining, Writing e:\folder\file.ext)' when z<2, it changes to: 'Burning...( xxx% done, z seconds remaining, e:\folder\file.ext)' where z is in (110,100,90,80,70,60,50,40,30,20,10) the reason is then at the end of burn process the estimation could be quite inaccurate sometimes (e.g. when burning data CD) so there would be shown e.g. '41 seconds remaining' and after then '48 seconds remaining' which would look strange. So the rounding makes sense. Btw. Because we eliminated the form Done/Estimation wouldn't it make sense to add the burning time to the dialog at the end of burn process? |

This works well. Re-opening for cosmetic reasons: Change: Burning... (x % done , y minutes remaining, Writing zzz.zzz) To --> Burning... (x% done, y minutes remaining, Writing zzz.zzz) or even better (unless there's some reason for not doing this) to --> Burning... x% done, y minutes remaining (Writing zzz.zzz) |

Changed: Burning... (x % done , y minutes remaining, Writing zzz.zzz) To --> Burning... (x% done, y minutes remaining, Writing zzz.zzz) in build 1194. |
|
This is a minor issue, but the UI still shows 'x %...' instead of 'x%...'. i.e. there shouldn't be a space to the left of the % symbol. |
|
Sorry, fixed in build 1195. |
