You forgot the .ui file for the dialog, but there's one thing I don't
understand: Why do you use a QMutex? You don't access any non-local data
between the lock and unlock so the mutex is useless.

Another thing you could do is add the QtCore.Qt.QueuedConnection
argument to the connect call. Although that should be used automatically
anyways.
