I'm really sorry if you guys have already tried this, but I was having the same issue with files in general, not just AE comps.  I was stuck on the Encoding window and nothing was getting added.  I couldn't get quicktimes or Premiere Pro sequences to load into Media Encoder.  Or so I thought. 

Turns out I just wasn't looking at my queue.  Hit Command-1 or go to View > Queue and you might find what you're looking for. 

Hope this helps!

    I am too having this issue, and the Queue view is visible.  When I choose to import an AE composition, I navigate to my AE project file, but the comps inside it are not displayed or selectable, and the Ok button never enables.  Neither can I drag and drop my AE project file into AME, I get an empty dialog box (I assume it's supposed to list the included comps), and the Ok button there never enables either.  Anyone discovered a solution to this issue?

      I may have found a reason, at least for my specific situation, although I do not know if this fits anyone elses situation.  The video clips included in the After Effects project was an MOV file, created by a NewTek Tricaster video board setup.  In fact, this affected all my Adobe products (well the video related ones that is) because I ran into a bunch of issues getting them into AE in the first place, with the same difficulties in getting them into Premiere.  And the resulting project files (AE & Premiere) has huge issues getting into Media Encoder.  It was all stemming from these MOV files themselves.

      I had to download a NewTek codec to even begin using them in the first place, and even with the downloaded codec, they are still hugely problematic to work with.  Unfortunately my company set up a great deal of time & money in setting these studios up, so I have to find a way to work with them.
