Guess I didn't scroll down far enough on
http://mergext.com/home/mergav/ to see the barcode syntax. THank you
for the suggestion.
I wentlooking on MergEXT and the various Livecode
tutorial/lesson/stack-sharing sites for a MergAV sample stack. The
closest I found was a thread on this forum from a year ago where
someone else was having this same conversation (including trying to
find the sample stack) and all the sudden they found it without saying
where and everything was good.
Finally I remembered reading somewhere that sample stacks were
included with the extensions if you dug into the app itself (Show
Package Contents on Mac). Found the sample stack... holy crap, MergAV
is WAY faster and more accurate than MergZXing was with barcodes (and
the blue line on-screen is a nice addition).
It seems like these sample stacks shouldn't be hidden like treasure. I
assumed clicking "Sample Stacks", or "Tutorials", or "Resources", or
even "Dictionary" inside of Livecode would have a reference or entry
for the sample stack.

There are barcode calls in mergav. There is also a sample stack that
demonstrates how to use it for scanning barcodes. All the MergAV calls are
documented in the dictionary.
I believe the other reason why zx was deprecated was because av is faster
and more accurate - at least it would appear to be for me.
