    Advice please for multi-core CLI conversion under MAKE

    Can anyone suggest the best way to get CoreConverter.exe to use all the CPU cores when run from a MAKE utility?

    I am planning to convert a manual Batch Converter procedure to an automatic procedure using the MAKE utility calling CoreConverter to convert files that have changed since the last conversion, but I can see no way to drive the -processor="n" parameter such that all cores are used.

    This will run under Windows 7.

    Thanks.

    You have to run multiple core converters, to use multiple cores.

    OK, thanks. So MAKE must generate e.g.

    CoreConverter.exe -infile=1.wma -outfile=1 -processor="0" -convert_to="Wave"

    CoreConverter.exe -infile=2.wma -outfile=2 -processor="1" -convert_to="Wave""Wave"

    from a single rule. Anyone know how to get MAKE to generate that automatically varying -processor value?
