    @mrjj

    Is this the one to center the movie

    processLabel->setAlignment(Qt::AlignCenter);

    for example,
    I added this in my code,

    processLabel->resize(100,100);
    error: invalid use of void expression
    )
    ^

    It showed this error

                  please show more of the code.
                  it works here so error is due to do it in odd place or something else i cant see.
