How do I run a linux command line or .sh file from an event

I want to create snapshot jpg from an rtsp feed using the command below. How do I do that with an event?

ffmpeg -ss 2 -i rtsp://10.0.1.3:7447/R0g4Xxxxxxxxxxx -y -f image2 -q:v 0 -frames 1 /usr/local/HomeSeer/html/camera/snap3.jpg

Here are a couple of ways that should work

(1) Set the program run to /usr/bin/ffmpeg and command parameters to

-ss 2 -i rtsp://10.0.1.3:7447/R0g4Xxxxxxxxxxx -y -f image2 -q:v 0 -frames 1 /usr/local/HomeSeer/html/camera/snap3.jpg

(2) Set the program to run to /bin/sh or /bin/bash, then set the command parameters to

-c "ffmpeg -ss 2 -i rtsp://10.0.1.3:7447/R0g4Xxxxxxxxxxx -y -f image2 -q:v 0 -frames 1 /usr/local/HomeSeer/html/camera/snap3.jpg"
