I'm using read_job() API to monitor jobs' progress. This only gives me a very coarse info about the status being one of the: Submitted | In Progress | Complete | Canceled | Error.

However, I'd like to show the user a percentage or ETA when in the In Progress state. Is there any API which gives such a fine grained progress information?

I don't think the "job % complete" is available to us according to the docs: http://docs.aws.amazon.com/elastictranscoder/latest/developerguide/elastictranscoder-dg.pdf

The JSON status update only has the "PROGRESSING" state which means very little for a user.

Amazon is aware this is a wanted feature from developers, as seen here: https://forums.aws.amazon.com/thread.jspa?messageID=477076&#477076
