Hi John, I don't know how one could save an entire animation from Python, but I use WriteImage() for each frame to output a .png, and I end up with a bunch of numbered images (I manually write the file names in a loop). That gives you more flexibility in encoding, as you can change the frame rate, bitrate, use more codecs, etc...Of course, if you do this, you need to use some encoding software such as ffmpeg, mencoder, QuickTime Pro, etc in order to encode the movie. I hope this helps,
