Title: Avidemux Jobs - Adding jobs to queue while jobs are running
Post by: Mick on June 13, 2023, 02:14:23 PM
It seems as if working in Avidemux and have Avidemux Jobs running won't work simulatneously, because you cannot add edits to queue while Avidemux Jobs window is open, and exporting directly from Avidemux slows down rendering jobs significantly, especially if exporting from/to same drive Avidemux jobs are read/written to.

Any chance "adding more jobs while Avidemux Jobs is running", is on the todo list?

Running multiple Avidemux instances concurrently is absolutely unsupported, even if it seems to work sometimes. Thus the answer is "no".

Where did you get the multiple instances from?

What Avidemux Jobs does during rendering of jobs is launching an Avidemux instance (by default the one with no GUI) in sequence for each job = two instances at the same time.

Purely refreshing the list might be possible, but rendering of jobs needs to be reliably blocked as long as Avidemux window remains open. There is no hard blocking as of now, which should be considered a bug.
