Submitting Arbitrary Command Line Tasks to the CF Processing Queue

Black Hole

May contain traces of nut
Rather than opening an abduco session, is there a way to push a command line onto the queue?

Background:

Qtube (youtube-dl) downloads of radio programmes arrive as .m4a (MP4 Audio), and (of course) I need them MP3*. The command required is very simple, but takes a while to run so is best run in a protected session:
Code:
> abduco -A yt
> ffmpeg -i <input>.m4a <output>.mp3


* What I would really like is the WebIF "Extract Audio" option, and "Queue for" operation, enabled for not just .ts files.

Not currently but it wouldn't be that hard to achieve,
it is something that I have thought about doing on a number of occasions but my todo list is ever lengthening with not much popping off the top 😩

It would make quite a good starter project anyone wanting an introduction to webif programming
