code for playing and recording video

[XXXdhelic]

Hi everyone!
My first post here . I have this project and I need to code a simple program that will play a video and after a external button is triggered the video playing stops and start a recording (with PI camera) and the feedback of the recorded imagem is shown on the HDMI output. When the user trigger the button again the video record stops, save the data on the SD while the first video start to play again.

I'm not a programmer but I find my way very easily. So I come here to ask for hints and maybe some sketch code you guys may have, where I can start from.

very glad for any help.

Thanks a lot!

Try whatever mechanism Java uses to launch external
commands (something like exec()) and start omxplayer with
the video file.

To check the GPIO for button input , use http://pi4j.com/

If you need to learn programming anyway, start with Python.
