Doesn't seem to work on the app?Usually, pushing and holding "pause" is another way to trigger the intermission display. No need for a separate button for this.
It is run by a group of enthusiastic Kaleidescape owners and dealers purely as a service to this community.

what does intermission button used for? Is it not pause?There's a dedicated intermission button in the app, assuming you're referring to the Kaleidescape mobile app.

Hmmmm. I don't know what you mean about the extended controls sliding away? Are you referring to the controls at the bottom of the screen here? They should stay until you dismiss them.Thanks Mike,
I'm aware of that button, though I usually use the Second Screen app on my iPad / MacBook.
The thing that annoys me is that on that app, the first tab allows me to display the "movie card", but then the extended controls slide away after a few seconds. The second tab has a dedicated intermission button, but that design doesn't look as nice as the first tab, as it doesn't have the movie poster + name in there.
yes, they automatically disappear. It might be when the iPad goes to sleep, and when you wake it up, the app closes that panel.Hmmmm. I don't know what you mean about the extended controls sliding away? Are you referring to the controls at the bottom of the screen here? They should stay until you dismiss them.

That may be true, but the (supposedly iPad-only) Second Screen app happens to be installable and works great on any Apple-Silicon mac as well! I use it just fine on my 2022 MacBook Pro!That’s our Second Screen app. It’s an older app, and is iPad-only.
Absolutely the best way to check/change/set Collections for movies/concerts, imo.That may be true, but the (supposedly iPad-only) Second Screen app happens to be installable and works great on any Apple-Silicon mac as well! I use it just fine on my 2022 MacBook Pro!
See more details on this little-known but excellent feature here!
Gotta agree here. So much of the kscape ecosystem seems to be antiquated. The UI features are in Dire need of an update too. How is it that products much cheaper then Kscape have better UI features and better remotes My Madvr Envy even works in RF and that remote is like the same size, lol.. smh bad form kscape.. bad form indeed.I have to agree... I can't believe in 2023 there would be a new remote control that ONLY communicated via IR. I've long since abandoned IR control... way back like 20 years ago when Plasma TVs were introduced that obliterated infrared signals anywhere near TVs. I redid everything to be RF and IP only.
The AppleTV remote did it right, at least in terms of communicating from remote to its box and from the box to other source components. While it has IR emitters it can use if you absolutely MUST control an amp or TV that antiquated way, it does everything it can during setup to first try to control your devices with TCP/IP, HDMI-CEC, and certainly with RF for reliability of transmitting its own commands to the AppleTV box itself.
And, even with Apple's minimalist design philosophy, they knew they had to put volume up & down (and mute) buttons on the remote if they wanted it to be useful as your "only" remote.
