There's really not much to it as far as defining the script.

The wiki page is here:

http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/User_job

If you go into mythtv-setup you can enter the name of the script to
run for each user job including arguments to the script and what you
want the job to be called from within the GUI.  You can also do it by
using mythweb or directly modifying the mysql mythconverg database.
The configuration for each job are just entries in the settings table:

mysql> select * from settings where value like '%userjob%4';
+------------------+--------------------------------------------------------------------------------+-----------+
| value            | data
                             | hostname  |
+------------------+--------------------------------------------------------------------------------+-----------+
| JobAllowUserJob4 | 1
                             | mythtered |
| UserJobDesc4     | Export To Portable
                             | NULL      |
| UserJob4         | /usr/local/bin/videoexport "%DIR%/%FILE%"
"%TITLE%" "%STARTTIME%" "%SUBTITLE%" | NULL      |
| AutoRunUserJob4  | 0
                             | NULL      |
