Comment:

 Replying to [ticket:4111 cscott]:
 > I took about 15 minutes of video using the Record activity.  When I
 finished, Record started encoding the video, which took about 30 minutes,
 with no feedback other than a spinning cursor.  This badly needs a
 progress bar.  (This was with build 612.)

 Progress bar was added to FRS release last night.  Coming in the next
 release.

 Replying to [ticket:4111 cscott]:
 > I was also scared to test whether the video encoding would be screwed up
 if I changed applications, closed Record, or even switched to mesh view.
 These activities should be tested.

 You can switch activities while encoding video.

 Will leave this open until these changes are reflected in a release.
