Those tokens are how mythtv knows what augments to appy to the script being called.  The tokens are specific to the descreet recording being affected, such as recording directory (%DIR%), recording (%FILE%), title (%TITLE%), ect.  If you call the script manually from the command line, you need to define those as was decribed earlier.

That is the other way to run user jobs; when you set up the recording rule, under post processing, you can define what user jobs are run after the recording completes.

Enabling lossless transcoding must have been the trick. I successfully
transcoded a movie I had made cuts on before, and requeued the
previously "errored" attempt, and it too was successful. I should be
good now, many thanks to all.   Daryl
