given you have a "target" directory, the 'output_file_name' can (should ?) be a
complete pathname, eg "output_file_name = C:/path/to/selectfolder/myscene". also
use the 'all_file = on' option and POV-Ray's screen output will be (largely)
duplicated in a 'alltext.out' "log" file.  and re your Delphi code, what if it
takes two arguments, that is path and %s separately ?
