Hi,

first of all, thanks to Pavel and Pete.

Pavel, I didn't realise I've disconnected everything from the signal not only 
the trackSelection slot. It fixes things in the script. I'll check if it do the 
same in the real code.

Pete, yes I was considering blocking/unblocking since a few minutes ago. I've 
never used it so I suppose that is why it has taken to me so long to consider 
this possibility.

Once again thanks to both of you (and to other contributors to this thread, of 
course).

Vicent
