It sounds like your filter might be exiting with a non-zero return
value.  Try 'echo $?' right after running it by hand to see.  If that's
the case and the filter is written to return 1 on normal exit, you can
write a little shell wrapper that runs the program and checks it's
return value, returning 0 instead of 1 on normal exit.
