bin 2x2 for cmos 5496x3672 is typed wrong

hi
on the list for image frame size

if you divide zwo cmos chip 5496x you 2748 and not 2744 as shown on the drop down menu for picture area

and you need to add other sizes for the zwo cmos chips..

for all the bin sizes, 2,3,4

thank

script py will not run raw_input() OR stdin()

hi

can not get py scritping to allow asking for INPUT() modes
please post how to ask for input in py scripting...

input() only version 3+
raw_input() version 2.x should work but give EOF error and does not stop and wait for input
stdin() does not work either
