Topic: map "search similiar songs" to hot key?
Is it possible to map this right click menu to a hotkey on keyboard or on my controller?
map "search similar songs" to hot key?

doesn't it really only put artist title into the search bar?
 
It does more than that for me, it lists all available versions of the track I am searching... (Intro edit, remixes, etc..) Do you know how to map it to a keyboard key?
 
I'm not sure it does, I think everything else is because of the search.
get_text "`get_browsed_artist` `get_browsed_title`" & param_cast & search
 
Yes, that worked, I appreciate the code. It is not exactly the same output as the right click output, but close enough for my needs. I am trying different tweaks with your code to see if I can get it exactly the same. I will post if I get it.
 
Doesn't that bring results as same song being played
 
All the right click option "search similar songs" seems to do is (as locodog said) put the artist & title in the search box - so it would be more accurately described as "search for exactly the same song".

Yes it will pull up any remixes, but they're not "similar songs".
