How Do I Set Up A Queue?

[midwinter]

I've seen a number of references here to setting up a queue of movies to encode in ffmpegx. How do I do this?

When you finish putting in your settings, you hit "encode" and it will put the project into FFmpegX Process. If there is already a project there (or more than one) then it will wait till that project is finished before it starts - or you can force it to start and it will encode in parallel with any previously running processes.

Once these processes are running you can close FFmpegX and leave FFmpegX Process going.

If you click the "Open Terminal Window" box under "Tools" then no matter how many processes you have, encoding will start immediately.

What you CAN'T do it what VirtualDub can do which is save a job list that you can start off whenever you please.
