Robert,
You should be able to pass a file/folder down to the "Run Shell
Script" action as input. Set the "Pass input" popup in the "Run
Shell Script" action to "as arguments". Then, in your shell
script, use the variable "$@" to reference the input. For example:
Get Specified Finder Items -> Get some folder
Run Shell Script -> ls $@
Result: A list of directories in the folder.
Here's a Mac OS X Hints post that discusses this a bit...

I found some other examples by Googling: automator "run shell
script".

I sent it to the Automator list since the question is mainly about
how to do something with an Automator action.

I am new at this so I hope I am stating my problem so other
understand what I want. I have created an Automator action that
will create a new video capture, start capture, wait for user
action to stop capture, rename the finder items(want an more
descriptive file name then what Quicktime will give the file),
and then pass the video to Podcast Producer using a shell
script. Everything works up until I run the shell script. What
I need to know is how to I pass the video file into the shell
script so it will be processed?
