[Gambas-user] ec statement with parameters containing spaces

I have this code:
Print "mplex", "-f 8", "-o " & "'" & sCombinedPath & "'", "'" &
sVideoPath & "'", "'" & sAudioPath & "'"
Exec ["mplex", "-f 8", "-o " & "'" & sCombinedPath & "'", "'" &
sVideoPath & "'", "'" & sAudioPath & "'"] To sOutput
I'm using the single quotes since they are required when entering the
equivalent commands in a Terminal e.g. mplex -f 8 -o
'/home/john/Videos/q.mpg' '/home/john/Videos/The Story of Science_
Power, Proof____20140621_2000.m2v' '/home/john/Videos/The Story of
Science_ Power, Proof____20140621_2000.mp2'
The Print statement shows (at runtime):
mplex -f 8 -o '/home/john/Videos/q.mpg' '/home/john/Videos/The
Story of Science_ Power, Proof____20140621_2000.m2v'
'/home/john/Videos/The Story of Science_ Power, Proof____20140621_2000.mp2'
i.e. the exact equivalent of the working command when entered in a Terminal.
However, the Exec statement does nothing at runtime. There is no
feedback on why by Gambas. The above sOutput variable has the value "".
What I am doing wrong?
