Import Python Modules in Control Surfaces

Not sure if this is the best place to ask this, but I don't know of any Ableton Python programmers community... I'm trying to add keystroke events in my control surface script for controlling things not possible with the current Live API. I've installed pynput and it works fine, but when I try it with Live, the log file says it can't find the module. Is there any way to use external Python libraries in Live?
I'm fairly new at scripting, so some of these concepts are beyond me, but I can get around with controlling most of Live's objects through Control Surface scripts. Thanks for your help!

I have never tested it but you could try this
https://pypi.org/project/pyinstaller/

Hhmm, thanks for the tip. Unfortunately it gave me this error:
Code: Select all
ImportError: bad magic number in 'clyphx_pro': b'\x03\xf3\r\n'
That magic number sounds very interesting.

I've been working on a script over the last week and one thing I noticed was Clyphx is generating errors and won't load. Might have something to do with the problem you're having.
I'm learning python as well as the live object model all at the same time, so I can't help with the details at the moment.

I'm working in the Live 11 beta as well.

Live 11 uses a newer version of Python.

Yes. I think that's what broke Clyphx.

Should we expect a newer version of ClyphX as well?
