| Post subject: | Why was the hardware search removed? |
Yesterday I was interested in looking up a certain LD player. I knew what year it was released and it's region but just needed a reminder of it's model number. Anyway I see that it no longer exists. And this hasn't been mentioned in any of the site upgrade notes. So I went into the wayback machine and this search was still there back in march of this year. So why was this removed? Was it a failed experiment? Is it going through a major revamp? Or is it something else? |

Probably something that Julien just can't quite implement so he removed it or it's having issues and he disabled it until he can fix it. In the meantime, I would suggest trying http://www.laserdiscarchive.co.uk to see if the player you're looking for is on there. |

Correct, I disabled it for now because it was confusing a lot of people making a LD search in the HW search and finding nothing at all... and then submitting a new title that already existed. Until the rest of the HW section is completed, I will keep it disabled. Julien |

The global brand/device matrix should also make things easier: https://www.lddb.com/hardware/ Julien |
