Custom buttons to Search Browsed OR Loaded Track
Tue 07 Nov 23 @ 2:46 pm
There are many times when it is helpful to search for browsed track.
1) one is using a streaming service and that track has been replaced by different track on their site.
2) one may want to find the same track on another streaming service, for example the browsed track is from Tidal and one would like to find the same (or similar) track on, say Beatport.
3) may wish to see if there are duplicates in your library for a given title, and wish to keep only the best version, etc
The script to search for the browsed track:
get_text '`get_browsed_song title` `get_browsed_song artist`' & param_cast text & search
And also useful is to search for the playing (loaded) track. That script (which is similar) would be:
get_text '`get_loaded_song title` `get_loaded_song artist`' & param_cast text & search
Or one could incorporate both into one button:
holding ? get_text '`get_loaded_song title` `get_loaded_song artist`' & param_cast text & search : get_text '`get_browsed_song title` `get_browsed_song artist`' & param_cast text & search
So holding action, searches for the playing track and regular left click searches for the browsed track.
