Hi all,

please would it be possible to add the progressbar on windows taskbar, it worked on older avidemux versions, but in 2.8.2 it is missing again, and its frustrating to see just black instead of progress ;)

Wäre es bitte möglich, den Fortschrittsbalken in der Windows Taskbar in Avidemux 2.8.2 wiederherzustellen, es hat in älteren Versionen funktioniert.

Could it be done just like here maybe: https://avidemux.org/smif/index.php/topic,16490.msg72924.html

Thanks very much for your help

Unfortunately, Qt has removed this functionality (QWinTaskbarButton class and friends) in Qt6 without replacement. Our bug is just that QT_HAS_WINEXTRA is never defined, even if we build against Qt5 with the required QtWinExtras module present.

As Avidemux has switched to Qt6 for Windows as well, this nice feature has been lost.

What a pity, thats bad news.

Oh well, hopefully oneday someone will bring the progressbar back somehow.

Thank you for the explanation eumagga
