Barcode Scanning Capability for Fitness/Dance videos
I workout to my fitness/dance videos and it'd be great if I could just scan the barcode of the DVD's for inputting exercise. Since many DVD's have different workouts on them, these would need to be selectable, of course, but it'd make it so much easier than entering individual exercises/movements or trying to figure out…
