Nice, it applied cleanly and appears to work, thanks!

The two main things I would suggest in the short term:

- Don't make me put in the '%s' in the file box.  If there's no '%s',
just assume that it should be the only other thing in the commandline
for the converter.

- I'm not sure how easy it would be, but it would be great to have a
progress bar per song, so it doesn't look like overall progress has frozen.

Other than that, it looks really good, thanks very much for it!  I may
have some time in the new year to help you out and improve this.
