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.
