Python API to start, stop, and save

[LB913]

Hi, I would like to incorporate starting and stopping a recording into some existing python scripts. I would also like to specify the file name of the recording being saved. I have not found the python API commands to do this; however, this seems very reasonable for an API. Please point me in the right direction!

That appears the be the C library. Are the python commands the same? I see the start and stop. Is there one for changing the filename?

For the most part, the Python API we provide aims to expose the inner C API. I personally don't know if the filename can be changed via the API.
