Sony make a range of CD and DVD multichangers. I
think
the CD ones go up to 400 CD's (CDP CX-450) and the DVD/CD ones up to 300.
The
DVD changer has got reasonable reviews in the low/mid range market. Both of
these units have serial interfaces but ONLY the CD changers allow for full
remote control. The DVD interface is only useful for cascading two units
together.
Nirvis
(www.nirvis.com) make a device called
Slink-e that connects to the CD changers to give you full remote
cataloguing and
control including cross fading between multiple players etc but not for the
DVD
as the interface doesn't support it.
If you want more info I use one of these with dual
changers.
Mechanical automation through robotics would seem a
huge
undertaking with questionable results.

changers
Hi all,
Anyone here have any experience with cd/dvd
changers?
I seem to remember talk of a sony
unit.
What I am after is building a pc based one for
feeding the dvd drive with disks and storing them again.
Does anyone on the list have experience of
robotics?
I'm not sure where to start!
