Is there any way to get conversion progress and status? I want to be able to show the progress of a pending conversion. I also want to display to user failed if conversion failed.

conversions are added tot he queue and are processed behind the scenes, so the user will not still be on the screen when the conversion is happening.

Any error in conversion will end up in the error log for the admins to see, you could tap into that process if you wanted to setup something custom for your users.

Better would be figuring out why conversions fail and make it so they dont fail i reckon.

The idea is that if you have a large upload being converted, you could see the progress of said conversion. Not sure if the conversion tool outputs any kind of progress or eta til completion.

What is the process that posts the failure to the log? I guess we could have it post somewhere else too. The idea of displaying the failure is to not have them "waiting" for the conversion if it's failed. Ideally we could see why it's failing, but with a notification, the user can try uploading again.
