Hi Kenneth

I'm using the code you suggested, but I'm not sure that I'm getting what I need. The code I have is:

    push @gl_thread_queue_arr, $ffmpeg;    # Add job to Ffmpeg queue

This creates $gl_thread_queue_arr[0] in the shape of %ffmpeg, which is perfect. Then I start to create the next ffmpeg job. The first thing is that the output file changes, so I reflect that in %ffmpeg with:

    $ffmpeg->output_file('media\a_' . $gl_id_txt . "_" . $gl_examination_dte . "_" . $gl_edit_mode . '.avi');

and now $gl_thread_queue_arr[0] changes to the new file name, which is not right. What am I doing wrong?

Interestingly, if I setup both the jobs in separate subroutines, so that $ffpmeg goes out of scope between job setups, there is no problem.

Regards
