    We use compressor 2.0 quite a bit in our facility. I have noticed that Compressor is unresponsive many times after submitting a new job. The Activity Monitor even says that it is inactive or hung (whatever the term actually is). But Batch Monitor tells me that the compression is going on. And when I am outputting right from a FCP sequence, the frame counter window wil run like normal, too. It takes longer than earlier versions to get done, but it does finish.

    Hope this is helpful.
