    WARNING: Batch Converter filter LIST interface ambiguity

    The LIST option in the music selection interface allows checkboxes to be manipulated to select or de-select specific tracks. The inteface has THREE buttons: "OK" "CONVERT" "CANCEL"

    [COLOR="red"]IF YOU MANIPULATE ANY OF THE CHECKBOXES YOU MUST CLICK THE "OK" BUTTON TO APPLY THE CHANGES![/COLOR]

    If you instead, simply click "CONVERT" the ENTIRE LIST (both CHECKED and UN-CHECKED) files are converted!! I found this out the hard way after a 2-day conversion of my entire collection.

    The button intention is very ambiguous... You would assume that manipulation of the check boxes could be followed by a "CONVERT".

    Either TWO buttons, "APPLY" and "CANCEL" should adorn the interface and behave as expected, or the "CONVERT" button should perform a conversion based on the items selected in the interface. In either case the "OK" button needs to be re-labeled "APPLY". However, my sincere advice would be to change the interface to only show TWO buttons.

    Seems like a bug, the convert should only convert the items with a check box, will investigate.
