Use Raspberry Pi Camera from Python 

Everything that worked on the old Pi models will still work on the Pi 4. No need to wait for the new videos. But I am very excited to see what people can do with all that memory!

@@DrZbo I'm new to the Pi world so all these scripts you have to input to get things done is new to me. Just hope hope I don't brick my new Pi 4.

@@JayzBeerz all good! Its a very welcoming group to beginners and experts. Also you really shouldn't be able to brick the Pi. At worst you just need to use the Raspberry Pi Imager to reinstall Linux but I doubt that will happen. You're more likely to just break Linux if you are making modifications to Linux. All of this breakage is fine and can be repaired by just reinstalling raspbian. Just make sure to keep your code backed up somewhere else like github or even just a folder on your main computer.

@@DrZbo cool thanks for the info

MARK!!!

Dale pone la cámara! La voy a llevar a la ONU g la Haya para denunciar

You can make use of motioneye os, There are may videos on RU-vid explaining the process.

Yes, use something like this: start_preview(fullscreen=False,window=(100,200,300,400))

@@GaryExplains Thank You Sir

Are you connecting to your Pi over VNC?

Yes

@@GaryExplains There is no reaction or preview window from the code execution . However the camera works through standard raspi commands ! Any ideas ?

Are you viewing via HDMI or VNC or something else?

@@GaryExplains I am using VNC. I understand that HDMI is required for preview. But even the test jpg file as per your code is not created on the desktop. Very strange!! It works when I use the standard raspi commands thro the CLI

If not file is created then it means there is a problem with your code.
