@mavetju where they always are -- on the talk's page, e.g. https://fosdem.org/2026/schedule/event/SFKNTZ-welcome_to_fosdem_2026/
@wouter am I right in thinking that status "waiting" can mean you are waiting for ACK from speaker?
@jpmens
There are two states, the 'state' and the 'progress'.
The state defines what needs to happen to the talk: transcoding, uploading, generating previews, etc.
The progress defines what is happening within the state. 'waiting' means it is waiting for a dispatcher to pick it up, 'scheduled' means it was dispatched but is waiting for the script to start running, 'running' and 'done' are self-explanatory.

That said, there are also a few states where no job needs to be dispatched and things happen out of band. In the 'preview' state, progress will stay at 'waiting' until a human reviews the video; in the 'publishing' state, progress remains at 'waiting' until the video is visible on at least one of our mirrors.
There is no 'waiting' state, but hopefully this answers your question 😉

@wouter actually my question is "why isn't the video I'm waiting for available for download?!!", but I'll try to use your formulae to answer it. :-)

If you have a title of the talk in question, I might be able to give you actual information on it 😉
