Hi Brand new RPi3 with fresh recommended install. Camera works with hello and test commands in terminal.

when trying to run this code:

from picamera2 import Picamera2

picam2 = Picamera2() config = picam2.create_video_configuration() picam2.configure(config) picam2.start()

I get this back and nothing happens

Any ideas how to get it working?

Read the documentation. https://datasheets.raspberrypi.com/camera/picamera2-manual.pdf You need a preview running since its event loop drives the camera. See section 2 for the basics. To capture videos see section 7 in the manual.
