Does the script set $PATH to include the location where python is? If you don't list /usr/local/bin explicitly, this may be the problem...

No, PATH doesn't get set but if I run it as /usr/local/bin/freevo.sh start from a login shell (i.e. after the system has booted) it works fine. I might be getting confused but I think this indicates the script is good and it's a start-up problem. Is this just wrong?

No, you should not assume that running the command from an interactive shell is the same environment that a RC startup script or a cron job runs under. Adding an "echo $PATH" somewhere would probably give you more information, but without a more specific error message, I'll repeat my guess.
