Hi, I have been successfully using iTunes' COM interface with Python using either of the following lines successfully:
iTunes = win32com.client.gencache.EnsureDispatch("iTunes.Application") iTunes = win32com.client.Dispatch("iTunes.Application") The only problem is that it will launch iTunes if it is not running by instantiating the object here. There are some reasons why I have not attempted to use more COM to check if iTunes is an active process, I tried either of the following lines to only form a connection if iTunes is running. iTunes = win32com.client.GetActiveObject("iTunes.Application") iTunes = win32com.client.GetObject(Class = "iTunes.Application") Both lines result in a pythoncom.com_error with 'Operation unavailable' in the second element of the tuple. Has anyone been able to successfully do this with iTunes' COM server? I have seen other 'Operation unavailable' messages in a few other mailing lists but was unable to find any solutions to this problem.
