I want to make the service as dead-easy and obvious as possible - it should work for you if you've just been woken up after 2 hours of sleep with a huge hangover and you're totally annoyed that you have to mess around with converting and you just want to get it over and go back to sleep. So your tired&confusing experience is valuable for me :)
I've had the option for automatically uploading the file, but decided against it thinking the files will be quite big and people might not appreciate the upload start automatically (in a different context, I'm really annoyed when web/flash video starts playing automatically, even if I opened the page with the intention of watching it). But since they already selected the file, it might make sense to start the upload "in background" while they can review and select what they want to convert to.
About the video page comments: both good points, will fix, thanks :)
