[Python] NotImplementedError when using threading with a keyboard and mouse listener with...

Here is the keyboard and mouse listener part of my code:

python
def mouse_listener(scroller):
"""Listens for mouse scroll events to scroll clipboard history."""
logging.info("Started mouse listener.")
def on_scroll(x, y, dx, dy):
try:
if dy > 0:
scroller.scroll_clipboard_history("up")
else:
scroller.scroll_clipboard_history("down")
except Exception as e:
logging.error(f"Error in mouse_listener in on_scroll: {e}")
try:
with mouse.Listener(on_scroll=on_scroll) as listener:
listener.join()
except Exception as e:
logging.error(f"Error in mouse_listener (join()): {e}")
logging.info("Stopped mouse listener.")

def keyboard_listener(scroller):
"""Listens for keyboard events."""
logging.info("Started keyboard listener.")
def on_press(key):
try:
if key == keyboard.Key.f9: # Stop the program
stop_clipboard_scroller()
return False # Stops the listener when F9 is pressed
elif key == keyboard.Key.ctrl and not stop_flag.is_set(): # Show ghost on Ctrl press
scroller.show_ghost()
elif key == keyboard.Key.fromchar('v') and not stop_flag.is_set(): # Check for Ctrl+V
scroller.show_ghost() # Show ghost on Ctrl+V press
except Exception as e:
logging.error(f"Error in keyboard_listener in on_press: {e}")



And in my log file I get:

plaintext
INFO - Started mouse listener.
INFO - Started keyboard listener.
ERROR - Unhandled exception in listener callback
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "...\pynput\_util\win32.py", line 386, in _handler
converted = self._convert(code, msg, lpdata)
File "...\pynput\_util\win32.py", line 401, in _convert
raise NotImplementedError()
NotImplementedError

During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "...\pynput\_util\__init__.py", line 229, in inner
return f(self, *args, **kwargs)
File "...\pynput\_util\win32.py", line 390, in _handler

As you can see none of my logging errors were called so I don't know what to do here. After I googled it I only found one unrelated bug report on github from 2023. Any help with this would be greatly appreciated.

This is my first post so I apologise if I haven't set out my question correctly.

The errors occur when I run the file. I expect them not to.
