finally:
camera.close()Here is my script. It still needs some modification but I would like to see if you guys can help me add some GUI buttons to the preview. Would I use PyXBMCt? Or TkInter? I cant seem to get TkInter installed ( cant download it for some reason). I want to add the following buttons to the preview screen: "Start recording" , "End recording" , and possibly a few buttons for adjusting the time or file name. [/quote]
