I wrote a batch script that MCEBuddy runs when it starts processing each file. If the main computer is above the threshold you set, it starts looking for other instances of MCEbuddy you’ve entered as back-ups. If it finds one idle, it moves the file to where the back-up computer can find it and process it. If it doesn’t find a back-up computer, it keeps plugging away like usual. You have to set up each instance of mcebuddy to access and monitor the right locations, and process the files the way you want. That part isn’t automated, but once you input that information for each computer, it should just run. Here’s where I posted the script and more info about it. Let me know if you have any questions. > [@Allow multiple MCEBuddy installs to share the Conversion Que](https://discussion.mcebuddy2x.com/t/feature-allow-multiple-mcebuddy-installs-to-share-the-conversion-que/1787/7): > > I wrote a batch script to offload to another server or servers. It’s not as smooth as an integrated solution would be, but I think it’s closer than some of the other proposed scripts. It functions using one computer with MCEBuddy as the queue manager which hands off to other servers as appropriate. Essentially, it does the following: Check if server 1 has reached the threshold number of concurrent conversions you set to trigger offloading to another server. Check if server 2 is responding and… --- _[View the full topic](https://discussion.mcebuddy2x.com/t/mcebuddy-status-create-option-to-monitor-multiple-mcebuddys-in-one-mcebuddy-status-window/1786)._
