Does anyone have a suggestion for the strategy to use to pass information from a rotary encoder to csound with the python api?

I am getting the data from the rotary encoder in one process and am running csound in a different process.  I have been working with pipe to send data from the rotary encoder process to the csound process.  

While I can get both the pipe and chnget to work independently I cannot seem to get them to work together.  Would I be better off using a shared memory value?  I assume one can use chnget in a continuous fashion at the control rate, right.  

I would really appreciate it if anyone has any ideas as to the best strategy to use here or have any example files that would be helpful. 

Thanks for your help!
