Python start and stop a video on demand

[acheesehead]

I want to have two scripts in Python. One to start a video and another to stop the video. I tried splitting demos/video.py into two pieces. One that starts the video and that's it. It does start recording. The stop video is the last part of video.py that disables the shutter and downloads the file. That does not work. It just loops giving a status. I believe it cannot instantiate the gopro object.

        WiredGoPro(args.identifier)
        if args.wired
        else WirelessGoPro(args.identifier, host_wifi_interface=args.wifi_interface)
    ) as **gopro**:
        assert gopro

Here is status message.
INFO 13:09:05.052 gopro_base.py:382
