Movie Updates

Deadpool showed up as an update for me
Tried downloading the hdr10 version twice and both times failed
Anybody else have trouble with the hdr10 update?
Strange that you and @thrillcat encountered an update failure. I just updated Deadpool HDR successfully in 9 minutes.

It had failed earlier today. I just tried again and it downloaded.
I saw something similar - I initiated the update (yesterday morning, I think), and I saw that the process started. But then later in the day, it showed up again as an update. I didn't see any notice about it failing per se, but it must not have completed for whatever reason. I initiated it again, and it completed successfully. Odd...
 
Deadpool (2016) from Twentieth Century updated to include DV/UHD with Dolby TrueHD Atmos
 
Nice! I think the only place this was previously available in DV was on Disney+. Looks like it’s not available (yet) on iTunes / Vudu yet either.
Way to go Big K!!
 
A Beautiful Mind (2001) in HD from NBCUniversal updated to Dolby TrueHD Atmos
 
Did Ben Hur with Charlton Heston on Blu-ray get an update or did they only change the movie cover? Does anyone know?. And how can you tell when an update has happened. I know it used to be for me you had to check for updates a click yes update, but I’m surprised to see the movie cover change and I never clicked on any update. Thoughts or answers ? Thanks
 
Live by Night (2016) from Warner Bros updated to include DV/UHD with Dolby TrueHD Atmos (previously (HDR/HD only)

The 1959 version is still in HD so it hasn't been updated yet.

Thanks for your response. But the cover art changed to which I have never really seen that before without an update. The far left cover for the older original movie was not the cover that was originally on there when I purchased the movie a few years ago. So I was just wondering. I guess they just changed the poster.
Thanks

It's been stated in a different thread that Ben-Hur and All the President's Men had issues with the files that were provided by the studios and they will be added when corrected files have been received and transcoded.
 
Fwiw, I’ve seen covers change a few times without a change to the content.

I.e.: the Mission Impossible series changed to what is shown currently. (Fortunately, we could, and did, change it back!)

Oh I guess I missed that. Thanks for the info.

That's good news.

IMDB and the UHD indicate this is a 2.76:1 aspect ratio movie, while KScape lists it at 2.40:1. Does anyone know if KScape is therefore cropping it, or is that 2.40:1 label not accurate?
