To be honest I'd do this with a series of separate scripts triggered by the OS - either cron on Unix or at in Windows... Simply save the frames as individually named files, probably using the time... Another script can collect the frames into a video. With suitable choice of argv options you can do all you want with just two scripts. And no need to get caught in the mire of concurrent processing. This follows my motto of keeping things as simple as possible! :-) Alan G _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
