Hmm...

/bin/sh: tv_grab_uk_rt: not found

I also added a second cron job .. 'echo $PATH' which produced...

/usr/bin:/bin


.. and my tv_grab_uk_rt is in /usr/local/bin

So thanks for the pointer!

There are obviously a few ways to 'fix' this (relocate the tv_grab binary,
make a symbolic link, modify the environment ...) - can anyone suggest the
'best' way?

Thanks,
George
