I hope this is the right place to ask this...
I have a python program (using Glade to create the gui) that periodically
launches ecasound to make audio recordings of various lengths. In order to
keep the gui viable, ecasound runs in a separate thread. In order to keep the
program from getting ahead of itself and trying to launch ecasound before the
current recording process has finished, I use gobject.timeout_add() for the
length of the recording (plus a second or two for safety).
Most of the calls to gobject.timeout_add() are in separate functions with
different intervals. All but one of them work. The last one only works if
gobject.timeout_add(..., ...)/return False is appended to the end of the
function that needs it, rather than calling it.
I feel like if I use gobject.timeout_add() and it works, it's just dumb luck.
I changed some functions that are well ahead of the one function which required
the timeout to be part of it. Now it doesn't take the timeout. The program
tries to start the next recording as soon as the first one starts.
Changing the function to call the timeout as a separate function like the
others still doesn't work.
I have the 1300+ messages in this forum and nobody seems to be having the same
problem. All the references and tutorials either don't seem to apply or
present examples that look just like my code. So my understanding of this
function, such as it is, is missing something.
Any ideas?
