I wanted to do something similar and the easiest thing I found was to
go through the normal setup of a movie to transcode and then once I
got to the point where I would press the Trascode button instead I
would select Debug and scroll down to the transcode command then take
and copy that to a file.  For each movie that I wanted to que up I
would do that, then make that file executable, and once I had all that
done I could just run that from the command line.
I've had good success with that.  This doesn't allow you to add movies
to the que on the fly but I haven't needed that.
