Is there a way to get barcodes working in this version of amanda so that it
wouldn't even have to do the reads, and if not, is there a way to tell it to
stop reading until it gets to 16 (ONLY READ FULL SLOTS)???

You have "havereader = 1", so as long as mtx and your tape changer
support them, barcodes should be working.

Can you post your changer log file?
