    Set up question

    Hey folks, you can work around this issue by setting the Chroma to 4.2.2 or limiting the output to 10.2 on the kScape. This worked for me. Its a known issue with the 8k Anthem boards. That said, Anthem told me this morning a beta will be rolling out soon with the fix for this.

    Aspect Ratio Handling for Trailers

    One of the things that brought me to KScape was the ability to signal my projector to change zoom mode for different aspect ratios. This works awesomely for browsing movie posters and playing the movie. Where it breaks down is when you want to play several trailers. This results in waiting a lot...

    Why K?

    I'd add integration to this list as well. I use Home Assistant to control lights based on K's metadata (Lights down for playback, up for pausing or end credits etc). I also track my projector's state, and pause KScape playback when the lens memory changes, or when color space changes, so...

    Store Pricing Feedback & Debate

    I disagree. I have definitely noted a difference between audio when streamed and when played lossless from disk/K. Lossy compression throws away information, and it comes with a decrease in clarity and bass response. It's the whole reason I got into physical media. I'm not a collector, but I...

    I'm also seeing these white flashes. I've checked with other sources and it doesn't happen. It happens both on the covers list and in movie (so not tied to video playback).

    HDR Vs UHD for JVC Projectors

    Hi All, I'm wondering if there's a consensus if JVC Projectors w/ tonemapping have a better experience with HDR versions of movies, or the non-HDR UHD ones? Do you loose more color going to SDR or more brightness sticking with HDR and Tonemapping?

    Newbie help needed on removing cataloged titles without discs in UI

    +1 Vote for being able to filter this list. After cataloguing my collection via a borrowed player, the home screen feels unusable for actually picking a movie I can watch on my Strato C. Can I _undo_ cataloguing discs in my collection? Like remove them completely?
