Sequence position display

Hi.

I'm hoping to get some ideas on how to implement a song position display (i.e. bars/beats or time) for a sequencing app. I'm using the MusicPlayer api, and my first hope was that I would be able to specify some kind of notification callback function. I don't see anything in the api for that (correct me if I'm wrong), so as far as I can tell I have two options: 1) poll the MusicPlayer fairly often and update the display as needed, or 2) create a metronome track in the sequence and aim it at MIDIEndpoint that can advance the display. The first option seems clumsy to me, and the second option seems like overkill. Is option 2 an expensive way to achieve this? I don't have a lot of experience with CoreMIDI so I don't know.

Any thoughts?

Thanks.
