I'd prefer to remove the warn size completely and just show the progress bar with a note that a compressed archive needs to be extracted first.

I am looking at a similar issue right now. At the moment we're opening a progress bar dialog for files > 1M. This is pretty annoying from a user experience perspective as opening and closing the progress bar takes more time than the actual extract job. In most cases you can't even read the dialog.

I'll try to make it act a bit smarter by waiting and checking progress in order to decide whether to open the dialog or not.

I'm not against the requested changes here, just wondering why one would keep 13-14 subtitles languages when he's concerend about disk space and compressing them in rars

The user is not compressing them. They obtained them already compressed. It's entirely by design to be like it is.

I could say the same thing about a lot of poorly encoded video files :P

Keep in mind, I have no objection to this request, so basically I'm just being a pill.

In case you haven't been following, this provides a base to build off (by moving the guilib stuff out of unrarlib so it's more easily modified).
