Is there a way to queue files for encoding when they are uploaded before installing the Media Converter Plugin?

you would need to do that via SQL, cant be done from the media converter settings...

go to plugin_mediaconverter_queue table and create SQL statements or manually enter the following info

ID: it has to be unique number - keep incrementing this number by 1 for every row
file_id: your video file ID (if you look in the 'file' table this is the 'ID' field)
status: pending
date_added: NOW
date started: leave empty
date_finished: leave empty
notes: leave empty
convert_source: auto
additional_data: leave empty

this is all you need and your file will be scheduled to process next time your cron task runs.
