# Queue FFMpeg Processes

{% hint style="info" %}
If you are reading this, we assume you know what is [Laravel Queue](https://laravel.com/docs/queues). if not, please read Laravel's documentation first.
{% endhint %}

Larupload supports queuing of FFMPEG tasks to handle time-consuming operations like cropping, resizing, and streaming of media files.

To enable this feature, you can use the `larupload.ffmpeg.queue` configuration key. Once enabled, you can upload the original file, and Larupload will start processing the video styles in the background, allowing your application to continue functioning smoothly while the file is being processed.

However, there is a limitation for `maximum-queue-num` which is optional. if the maximum number of available queues is exceeded, Larupload will redirect back to the previous URL with a message indicating that the queue limit has been reached. This feature helps you to efficiently handle media files and avoid any delays or timeouts in your application.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://mostafaznv.gitbook.io/larupload/queue-ffmpeg-processes.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
