Querying iTunes COM object leads to QMutex::lock: Deadlock

[daudrain]

Hi,

I am developing an application that listens to iTunes playback information.

Everything worked well until the application starts querying for the current track position. This position is communicated via signals.

The position is queried by using a timer. The time executes the following code (iTunes is a QAxObject instance that has been successfully initialized):

@
QVariant variantPosition = iTunes->property("PlayerPosition");
if (variantPosition.isValid())
{
if (variantPosition.toInt() != currentTrackPosition)
{
currentTrackPosition = variantPosition.toInt();
}
}
@

From a thread perspective, the timer is invoked on the same thread as events such as onPlayerPlayEvent, onSoundVolumeChangedEvent, etc...

Did anyone face the same issue with iTunes COM ou an another COM API?

Thx
