Hmm.. that echo'ed absolutely nothing!!

The problem appears to be that mythbuntu's /bin/sh is "dash", which doesn't
support "let".

I've changed line 1 to:

#!/bin/bash

and the script now completes and appears to insert a reasonable cutlist:

As you can see I added some extra debugging to check that the 'fudge' was
working correctly :)

I've not watched this recording yet to see how successful the flagging is,
but we're on the right track now!

I've updated the wiki page to mention that you can add multiple recording
paths, but havent changed the script :)
