Actual Behavior

I want add watermark to my video, because of the video is too large, so I used laravel queue.

It is normal when I run a job immediately (synchronously)，
but it tips
call to a member function setArguments() on null {"exception":"[object] (Symfony\Component\Debug\Exception\FatalThrowableError(code: 0): Call to a member function setArguments() on null at /xxx/vendor/alchemy/binary-driver/src/Alchemy/BinaryDriver/ProcessBuilderFactory.php:171)
when I ran a job asynchronously

Expected Behavior

run a job asynchronously like synchronously

Thanks for reporting! I created an issue at alchemy-fr/BinaryDriver#45 as the problem lays deeper there.

Quick fix for this issue, when use with queued job, create FFMpeg instance in handle function instead of __construct

public function __construct()
{
    //$this->ffmpeg = FFMpeg::create(config('ffmpeg.create_options'));
}

public function handle()
{
    $ffmpeg = FFMpeg::create(config('ffmpeg.create_options'));
}
