Hrmm...isn't that what that red light scanny thing does? Well, if you're talking about what I think you're talking about...that scans the barcode. All it does is the same thing that typing in the barcode does, only faster. Now, that should tell that you returned the video, but if he lost it before discharging it, then as far as the computer is concerned, it was never turned in. However, if he's not denying that you lost it, someone can (unless they've done something different with the system) discharge it from the list of stuff you have checked out. From there it's all on them.
