"info--logfile=/home/mythvidexport" is not a valid logging level, so you 
will not get any logs.  Further, you did not specify a path, so logging 
will only be made to the local terminal.  Further, you should be 
supplying a directory with --logpath, not a file with --logfile, for the 
logs to be placed.

This means that the channel, starttime, or both supplied to the script 
were invalid.  Ideally, you supply a job ID to the script, and allow it 
to pull that information internally.
