Resume Post Processing

I have a Schedule to pause post processing and resuming after a few hours and all works ok. What I want is sometimes to resume post processing without having to create a new schedule for that. Maybe a button or a command line to stop and resume post processing? is that possible?

It would be possible, but also hard to implement it in a way that people actually understand.
It's a rather non-obvious feature...

Now I have to create a new schedule to resume and remember to delete it when finished. There's another way?

Currently not.
For reasons, I mentioned in the previous post.

I too would consider this a very useful feature and not really that non-obvious.

Currently my system is set to post process only at fixed times (overnight).
CPU load of postprocessing sometimes affects performance of the machine, which is also serving a couple of mediaplayers.

But sometimes I download a movie and I just want to watch it immediately, without having to schedule a new task etc.

IMHO it would be very useful to just add a 'force post processing' button?
