(ExtendScript) Send job to AME queue without starting the queue elaboration immediately.

Hi everyone, I'm coding a custom panel for Premiere Pro in ExtendScript. I'm referring to the PProPanel example project render function as a starting point:
https://github.com/Adobe-CEP/Samples/blob/5490c33ac8355ba394c693deb10414553b0a5685/PProPanel/jsx/PPRO/Premiere.jsx#L712

 

However, I can't seem to find a way to send the job to AME queue without having it to start the queue elaboration immediately. What I want to achieve is something similar to the behaviour of the default Premiere export sceen, where you click on "Send to Media Encoder" and it just queue up the job without starting the elaboration right after: in my panel I will send multiple segments from the timeline to the queue, and I will start the elaboration manually in AME at the end.

Hello Il Ret,

 

the last (optional) parameter to app.encoder.encodeSequence() indicates whether or not to start rendering immediately:
