sorry not to be clearer but that is what I am doing - the script
worked before upgrading
the script is
#!/bin/bash
ffmpeg -i $2 -b $1 <other options> $3
Within the script, and before the line that calls ffmpeg you might try
putting in 3 echo commands to see if the value is actually being seen.
You also might need to put "" around the variables in the line calling
ffmpeg (such as "$1" ) although that does not seem it should be needed.

#!/bin/bash
echo "this is value 1: $1"
echo "this is value 2: $2"
echo "this is value 3: $3"
ffmpeg -i $2 -b $1 <other options> $3

I just tried it on my FC5t3 x86_64 box and the values were passed
properly. I did not try it with ffmpeg but the echo worked and
passing the values to the called command also worked.
this is run as script name number input file output file
