sPhoto = VideoStartApp(viPictureCapture)
IF sPhoto <> "" THEN
Info("Photo sauvegardée dans le fichier " + sPhoto)
END
nTypeEnregistrement is int

IF Dialog("Souhaitez-vous enregistrer une image ou une vidéo?", ...
["Une image", "Une vidéo"], 1, 2, dlgIconQuestion) = 1 THEN
nTypeEnregistrement = viPictureCapture
ELSE
nTypeEnregistrement = viVideoCapture
END
// Lance l'application
VideoStartApp(nTypeEnregistrement, CB_VideoLanceAppli)

IF sChemin ~= "" THEN
Error(ErrorInfo())
RETURN
END
