[Pythonmac-SIG] timeout of connection?

[Jon Christopher]

Thanks again Brad.  The link and the related peek into the underlying
operation of Apple Events was
instructuve.  Unfortunately, my particular bug shows up under Leopard
too, not just Snow Leopard, so I don't think it's related.

So, I'll reiterate my request.  Can can any of the appscript gurus
think of any reason why
the following (pseudo) code should fail:


import appscript
id=app("EyeTV").recordings.get()[0]
app("EyeTV").play(id) # works just fine
app("EyeTV").stop()  #works just fine

go_do_other_stuff_possibly_in_other_threads_for_a_really_long_time()

app("EyeTV").play(id)  # has no effect



Thanks for your time.

-Jon
