It is doable but hard to test and debug. I believe a better solution
is to do it
locally on my server here. It needs a week to configure it to do only
that. With an old computer it costs almost nothing, with SIMD it runs
fast enough
and power consumption is very little. With Windows 7 power efficiency
if the task is not running so often it is very inexpensive way to do
that.

It is harder to test and debug and you have to pay for usage.

Yes - me too ;)
