Oops, sorry, that was the wrong version of the script; I forgot we'd left it in
a bit of a mess when we did testing to try to figure out what was going wrong.
In any case the combination of "set-config capture=1" and
"--capture-image-and-download" seems to have fixed things.  I wonder why it
worked with just --capture-image and without the set-config command before?

Anyway, thanks for your help.
