How would I script the "Is Based On" field to a file in Picard?

I’m wondering if I can save the “is based on” information, but I can’t quite figure out how to script it correctly. As an example, I would want “is based on: Concerto for Piano and Orchestra no. 1 in B-flat minor, op. 23: I. Allegro non troppo e molto maestoso (original 1874/75 version)” saved to a custom field. Here’s as far as I got with it.

$if(%_recording_comment%,$set(recording, %_recordingtitle%)))

unfortunately, I don’t think Picard scripts can use the “is based on” relationship. pretty sure all the variables Picard can use are in the lists at the bottom of this page of the doc.

you may be able to write a plugin that can do this, but I’m not at all familiar with plugins… :sweat_smile:

I suspected, just wanted to ask first before making a ticket request. Thanks.
