This machine also uses the 8 pin din socket. Could anyone out there tell me if AmigaVision will work with this player?

According to the AmigaVision manual, it cannot, but it does have an I/O port on the back for computer control. The I/O port is a round, 8 pin port, which I believe is quite different from most of the other laserdisc controller ports, but it seems that if Pioneer allowed for one type of computer control, they might not just change it completely for its later laserdisc models (the ones which are supported by AmigaVision).
