by default "we" are not allowed to run shell commands, to avoid a potential
security issue.  in your global 'povray.conf' file, the "[Shellout Security]"
must be enabled / "allowed"; it is a good idea, generally, to tune the global
..conf and .ini files as part of "post installation".

I've not tried, but can you not write:  post_frame_command = sh myscript
path/to/%s

?
