I need help for a script. I have a song playing on one deck, I want to use a POI script to load a song (Hello Rain- Uncle T.mp3) from my library to the other deck. (using a 2 decks). For the new song is it the title or the filename that will be used?
I tried, "load "Hello Rain " in deck 2" but this gives a dialog whether to stop the current playing track.

deck 2 load "full path to file.mp3"
Will load a file to deck 2, but it will always load to deck 2 which doesn't seem to be what you actually want?
If you want it to load on the opposite deck on a 2 deck setup, you could try something like:
action_deck 1 ? deck 2 load "full path to file.mp3" : deck 1 load "full path to file.mp3"
The full path to the file includes everything, so for example "c:\users\myuser\desktop\my file.mp3"

I tried the 2 scripts on 2 Cues which forwards the same current playing song "Cold Water" to the deck 2. I cannot get the "specified path song" on deck 2.
I use this:Cue 1 ///// action_deck 1 ? deck 2 load “C:\Users\windex\Desktop\project\smile_on _me _ John.mp3” : deck 1 load “C:\Users\windex\Desktop\project\smile_on_me _ John.mp3”
Cue 2 ///// deck 2 load “C:\Users\windex\Desktop\project\smile_on_me _ John.mp3”
Notice whichever song is highlighted in the playlist browser that the song get loaded when these Cues are passed regardless of the "path"
When deck 2 is the current playing track I would want the "specified path song" to load on deck 1,hence the script will be different?

Can't test it at the moment, but what I'd try next is to escape the slash.
So it be like:
... load “C:\\Users\\windex\\Desktop\\project\\smile_on _me _ John.mp3”

... load “C:\\Users\\windex\\Desktop\\project\\smile_on _me _ John.mp3”

also you can do TEST by
copying the MP3 file to the root and test it that way first (this will avoid invalid paths, wrong filename etc...)
This will shorten your path to just C:\MYSONG.MP3

Na, the double back slash didn't do it.

Good idea but didn't do it.
