Hello everyone! Since it doesn't look like I'm going to find a new job as quickly as expected, it's time to spend some time on LDDb. Looking at having separate tables for: AC3RF are player agnostic but remote controls need to be linked to their original unit and comments could testify which one is compatible with other players. The next step would be to link each Pioneer spare part to their related players, but that's a HUGE amount of work with a small amount of people knowledgeable enough to contribute significantly! As a start, what are the standard voltage ranges found on worldwide devices? I have: - 100V (Japan only)
- 100-110V (Japan/North America)
- 110V (North America)
- 100-120V (Japan/North America)
- 120V (North America)
- 220~240V (Europe/South East Asia)
- 100-240V (Worldwide)
Any other? Julien

LG-1 could be considered a "Player" that has not LD capability but X inputs, Y outputs and LD-G capability. Same could work for AC3RF demodulators, a "Player" that has no LD capatility but X inputs, Y outputs and AC3RF internal demodulation. Same logic could apply for MUSE decoders. I'll need a separate table for remote controls though. Julien

Julien No, but that's what I mean; you could make an exception for A/V amps with AC3RF support and include them under the same category as standalone AC3 demodulators, but that might make that list grow so much that you'll end up having to give it it's own category anyway.

I have a shop on discogs and haven't sold ANYTHING, have CDs that there are 20 wants and my price is HALF of what the other guy sells theirs for but still no dice. But I did end up selling more CDs on ebay by getting them listed, even at low prices.

Will update on the roadmap to add hardware support to LDDb. Let's list the steps even if only #1 has been cleared right now: - Import all Pioneer part numbers and make them searchable [DONE]
- Import all Players/AC3RF demods/etc. (== devices) and make them searchable [DONE]
- Allow users to updates devices / add notes
- Allow users to confirm parts and link them to a device
- Allow users to add pictures
- Allow users to add to collection/wishlist
- Allow sellers to add devices/parts to their shops
- (... and probably some steps I forgot)
Julien

About: Import all Players/AC3RF demods/etc. (== devices) and make them searchable [DONE]You should have noticed the new search box. Obvious different color to make it stand out better than a blinking "NEW" icon! (oops... still showing "Title" instead of "Device") Attachment:
