Video not converting or displaying

Hi,
I have installed the video module for my site. It ran perfectly using the standard settings where users had to upload their files and specify the criteria such as width etc.
However it stopped working when I enabled the auto convert option. I would like it to work this way as it makes it so much more user friendly.

I have enabled the cron tab using unix and it currently looks like this:

1 * * * * /usr/bin/php -O - -q http://www.mysite.com/video_scheduler.php

This outputs the following cron result: /bin/sh: 1: command not found

Immediately after uploading the user is presented with the result:

warning: Illegal offset type in /home/numnews/public_html/includes/form.inc on line 593.
warning: Illegal offset type in /home/numnews/public_html/includes/form.inc on line 594.
Uploaded file is not a valid image. Only JPG, PNG and GIF files are allowed.

However the video is not viewable at all, it doesn't look like its converting.

I have the FlowPlayer.swf and all other files in their own directory in the root.

Can anyone spot the problem?
