is there a script for me to use the browser knob on each side to load the songs by pressing it instead of pressing the load button?

i was able to script it to work on one side but when i pressed the browser knob on the other deck it loaded the song on the other deck

Despite the fact that the device has 2 BROWSE Push Encoders, both send exactly the same MIDI Cc/Note (same as if those were the same key), so no software can understand the difference. Those Encoders and Push-encoders keys cannot be assigned to a deck-related action, so only global actions (and deck load is not one of them)
 

The part that confuses me is how does the load button on each side work separately even the script for both simply says “load”

I don’t understand script fully, just the very basic.
 

Unfortunately, there is no way for a user to know if a certain key offers the same MIDI CC/Note on both sides or not, by just looking at the Key activity or Manual.
The LOAD buttons - and pretty much all other keys on this controller - send different MIDI value or channel so VDJ knows the difference and inside the integrated definition has deck="left" for the left key and deck="right" for the other one. So even with a single name and no deck on the assigned action, VDJ executes to the correct Deck.
Thats not the case for the BROWSE encoder and Push though, as explained in my previous post.
