    I am sorry if this has been addressed before but there are too many posts in this thread.

    Is there a way to save the preview pictures from the video pages. In the past, with an older version of Firefox, I could disable javascript after clicking on the thumbnail and pulling up the full version of the image, then right clicking and picking "save image as." But now I don't see a way around it other than capturing the screen everytime and pasting into an image editor.

    holyabdu, the easiest thing to do in Firefox without using any plug-ins would be this I suppose:

    Righ-click on a thumbnail and select View Image
    [​IMG]


    You will get that thumbnail showing in your browser
    [​IMG]


    Now just add jp to the end of the dvd code
    [​IMG]


    And you will have the full image

    I think this works with everything in the digital area.

    Holyabdul, would you do me a favor? Would you please explain to me why that Casshern2 is so ridiculously knowledgeable?

    I dood it, and it worked like a charm - amazing. And will you look at the way CH2 doesn't leave anything to chance with a person's comprehension, going the extra mile with his step-by-step illustrated instructions? What a luxury, especially compared with the way a lot of Akiba-Online members are infatuated with one or two-word responses. It's wonderful.

    DMM has been acting mighty peculiar, of late. Maybe their name is soon going to be changed to PMS.

    I made a joke about how I couldn't get DDB 172 to come up in a search, at the bottom of this post over here. (As well as mentioning a few other quirks from DMM.)

    I choose the "-DVD" setting of the drop-down menu on the left side of the search box. Some prefer the top listing that is for everything, and I've experimented with that too.

    As I wrote in the aforementioned post, I managed to get DDB 172 only by going through the leading actress' listings. So the movie was listed, it just refused to come up via a search.

    I'm aware of the "double-zero" trick (in this case working out to DDB00172), and that failed to yield the correct result as well. I never needed to resort to this trick, as putting in the hyphenated (or non-hyphenated) code was all I needed to do.

    I have had subsequent experiences that proved to be wash-outs, including HHP R053 (for which the double-zero trick worked), and most recently for RCT 468, for which nothing worked. (Tracked it down ultimately, via one of the featured actress' listings.) Thought I'd let you know.

    Hopefully, the problem will be temporary, as I understand DMM is going through some changes with an R18 version of their site, or whatever. Sure is becoming frustrating, though.


    (I purposely omitted the hyphens for the DVD codes mentioned above, as I didn't want folks searching for these movies to deal with an irrelevant post.)



    EDIT:
    To clarify.

    DMM has a bunch of sections, "Monthly," "Digital," "PPM," etc. - when you run a search for a movie, the "Mono" section is their basic section, far as I understand. For example, here is a link I have on record for JUC 700, pointing to the Mono section.

    Sometimes that "Mono" section is no longer coming up. My settings (observe the red highlights) when I run a search:

    The pictured attempt for MADV 294 came up dry. Employing the double-zero trick came up with results for three sections, none "Mono." The others don't always have the same information the "Mono" one does.

    Have you tried JAVZOO (formerly JAVIMDB)? You can search by DVD codes and then right click on the pix (they hot link from DMM) to figure out the DMM specific code. I'm not sure that will totally solve your problem but in general I find it's most reliable to search on DMM by the full or partial title in Japanese. And JAVZOO can help you with that too.

    Over in this thread I'm developing a program that would collect metadata of JAVs. And when I type in your problem cases into my program, each one produce a good result, giving me the cover image on DMM, screens on DMM and full title, actress (in both Japanese and English) etc. That should be enough data to help you find the vid on DMM. (?)

    A most cool suggestion, Ding73ding! I have certainly run into JavIMDB-now-Javzoo, and I always wondered... what good is that site? All it has to offer are the cover, the portraits of the stars (which is nice; DMM, for example, chooses only one portrait of a movie with multiple stars), and screen shots. Pffffttt-! (Maybe there is more to the site, I haven't really scrutinized.)

    I am glad you are making use of that site. but nowhere does it have the versatility of DMM, of course. I just wanted to announce DMM going a bit haywire, although luckily, most of the time, the search function for DMM does work. (Frustrating when it does not; I want DMM the way it used to be.)

    I did pay attention to your right-clicking on the photo advice, although I could not see anything especially revelatory (the pic link gives the DVD code with the two zeroes added, from the few I tried - we already are aware of the double-zero trick), and you are right, it can be helpful to search via the full/partial titles; yet digging up the titles in Japanese would entail an additional step, and sometimes, if the movie is part of a series, you may wind up with results for other than the specific title being sought.

    (EDIT: I pontificated here, thinking of searching via title as a matter of course, but in those times when the DVD code fails with DMM, this is actually a great idea; taking the additional step of digging up the Japanese title sure beats sifting through an actress' listing. Good thinkin', D73D!)

    (EDIT, again: Just had occasion to put the above to the test, when SVDVD 351 failed to come up. Searching with the full and partial Japanese title - レイプ! 男は誰でも人生に2回だけ生中出しレイプしても良い国 - failed! Yet I got another, albeit time-consuming, idea: Sougouwiki has a direct link to the page on DMM, not just to the cover. That's how I finally landed the DMM page for this SVDVD title.)


    Thank you for your link, I had previously run into that very ambitious post of yours (made my poor head hurt a little), and I was impressed by the way you have a lock on these technical issues. (If your program yields a replication of the information on the "Mono" pages of DMM with the problem cases, why, that is one nifty program. Your know-how sure gives you an edge.)

    Recently when I navigate from here to there within DMM I sometimes get this (5% of the time or so). Then I have to go back once and then try again. Odd...yet, scarily scary in a non-frightening kind of way...

    Server not found
    Firefox can't find the server at en.dmm.co.jp.

    And dare I mention I was not within the en.dmm.co.jp sub-domain at all. Hmmm...

    Same thing has been happening to me. Looks like they're really trying to push the en.dmm on us foreigners. At least it's quickly remedied by going to the previous page and trying again.

    You don't have to browse anything, friend, just click on those pretty little numbers at the top right. The page navigation.

  17. What would you benefit from R18.com? Its pretty much Japan just making a site for us dirty western people that will have real late releases (pretty much not every title u will find on DMM will be available ) and pretty much try to stray us away from the japanese site so we dont see the more harder fetishes.

    Which I really dont blame them after people started bitching about that train chikan game and pretty much anything loli.

    EDIT: Theres actual loli, even in hentai. Whats the purpose of R18.com lol Im guessing cause DMM already has many years in it so beigning to add "actual" english into it would be confusing cause they would have to stray away from the countless and countless of pages already in japanese.

    Still, R18.com wont have everything, but if theres loli to buy then its not all bad.

    Would recommend using DMM still if u know ur way around.

    DOUBLE EDIT: Hold on a sec, this is probably just as good as DMM. I think I see every NEW title? Someone correct me if IM wrong.

    TRIPLE EDIT: AHA!! I see no NAtural high or Dandy in here at all!!!

  18. All the new titles will be available on R18.com just like they are on DMM.com

    There might be a slight delay if the title is not translated, but for the most part they will be released at the same time.
    As far as Natural High or Dandy, they will also be added to the R18 database, but as you can imagine converting over 200,000 videos into English takes some time. They are coming you just have to be patient.
  19. Are you sure? Wheres ur source for this?? They could have just posted the newer titles like they did with everything else and then put the rest gradually like they are doing with everything else. I feel like you are assuming here just as I am assuming they wont be on that site.

    Once Natural high and dandy are on r18.com, it will be pretty much DMM but in english.

    Time will tell.
  20. My source? LOL... you haven't been checking the R18.com blog posts recently have you.

    I WORK at DMM. :coolguy:
