(Get the code!)
I looked at it again today. The dialog is better, but there's still room for improvement in the text that is shown in the progress bar: it currently says "45% of 3934 seconds completed", which looks a bit strange. I would recommend simply something like "About %s remaining", where %s is the rendering time left in a human-readable format ("1 hour and 55 minutes", "4 minutes", "3 minutes and 54 seconds").
Here's some example code of what I mean: http://
What I'm saying is that when rendering an audio timeline, you usually don't care at which second out of the total you are, and you don't actually need the percentage (because the progressbar itself gives you a rough visual indication). The only useful thing I could see there is a the remaining rendering/mixdown time.
