That's what the CLI is for...   just queue up a bunch of transcodes on 
the commandline:

nuvexport blabla; nuvexport blabla; ....

Though the vcd exporter doesn't have a CLI.  Unless you really need vcd, 
I'd strongly suggest that you use the svcd exporter (which does have a 
cli mode):

nuvexport --mode svcd --denoise --quantisation 5.5 --chanid 1035 \
     --start 20040527015700 --outfile "Good Eats - Eat This Rock";

And no, this isn't in the documentation, and yes I know it should be 
(the best I have now is a "read the code" suggestion -- I'll get to the 
rest later).
