no clear idea from my side where to have it in UI placed,
but in general I see 2 possible solutions for this:
- blocking one - have small modal window in front (maybe with cancel/stop button existing) => progressbar displayed & no UI updates possible in the meantime or
- non blocking one - some status-bar progress bar only, but for this I'd propose to have task running in separate thread => UI is responsive, would be more for a notification purposes
in fact I probably would preffer for daily usage the second option, in case someone imports huge number of vids, he/she might would like to continue in other work meanwhile.
also to mention, would be fine to have somewhere near the progressbar task beeing executed described => it's clear what task the progress bar is indicating progress of.
that's it from my side, feel free to comment on these ideas
