Hi all,

This is probably more a linux issue than a Rivendell issue, but perhaps
someone can give me a hint? I apologize for being a Linux-n00b...

I looked at the example at:
http://rivendell.tryphon.org/wiki/Auto-Recovery_After_a_Power_Failure

Made script as follows:
/usr/share/autostart/rivendell-rdairplay.desktop
-----------------
[Desktop Entry]
Encoding=UTF-8
Type=Application
Terminal=false
Categories=Qt;KDE;Rivendell;
Name=RDAirPlay
GenericName=Rivendell On-Air Playout
Exec=rdairplay --log1=`date +%Y_%m_%d`
Icon=rivendell
StartupNotify=true
-----------------

RDAirplay starts but the log is not loaded.
If I take the output of [date +%Y_%m_%d] and put it in: [Exec=rdairplay 
--log1=2012_08_11] RDAirplay starts and loads the log.
If I run [rdairplay  --log1=`date +%_%m_%d`]  from the command line
RDAirplay starts and loads the log.
I gave 777 to the autostart script as well.

Any ideas why it doesn't work from within the autostart script?
Some kind of CentOS quirk?

Thx, Stephan
