Not sure if this is a new feature, or it could be done with a button & a script,
I use the Comment field (in tag editor) to keep interesting/useful facts about some songs & videos
I'd like to have a popup (on the DJ screen not the audience screen) that shows the comment field when I load a song or video
e.g. Roy Orbison,Penny Arcade = "Written by local man Sammy King, on holiday in Wales. In 2019 he re-recorded it with a local choir"
or "this song is one of our pub anthems, always follow it with xxx or yyy song"

can be done, you need to add this to your onsongload entry in your keyboard mapping
param_equal "`get_loaded_song 'comment'`" "" ? nothing : edit_comment
or perhaps this and it will put the info in the search bar
param_equal "`get_loaded_song 'comment'`" "" ? nothing : search "`get_loaded_song 'comment'`"
*Edited found a shorter script(s)*

Thank you
I've spent all morning messing with scripts - well it was a learning experience !
Thanks again

Actually I just gave it a second look and the vars bit is unneeded [I missed the second backtick on my first try]
