Queue Manager

In addition to its normal conversion processes, ProCoder also provides job queuing
capabilities. Instead of waiting for the ProCoder application to finish a conversion, you can
queue jobs to the ProCoder Queue Manager which takes over and performs conversion of
queued jobs much like the print spooler handles printing jobs. In this manner, the ProCoder
application serves as a job set-up tool and the user can queue multiple jobs with different
priorities and return later when they are complete.

To queue a job:

1

To queue a job, set up the conversion in the ProCoder application as you normally

would, but instead of clicking the Convert tab and starting conversion, click the
Queue button below the Convert tab.

The Job Queueing window appears.

2

In the Job Name field, enter a name for the job. The job’s name will appear in the

Queue Manager.
