    Kaleidescape's CEO Forum Paticipation

    Lon, We don't comment on rumors, speculation, or concerns, and certainly not in a public forum. I can assure you that we understand your desire for the portability of purchased titles across devices and services.

    Premiere no longer shown on K's website

    Thank you, Jim and 20hertz – I appreciate your thoughts and responses to the concerned comments on this thread. 1. New premiere system sales are a single-digit percent of our annual revenues. We need to stop confusing the channel, and prospective buyers with too many products, and the...

    4K HDR Titles in K Store Missing Immersive Audio (Dolby Atmos/DTS:X)

    I promised a list, but I don't have a MAttHEATLifer on staff to follow through, but we've been working. 1. Update on one major studio whose 4K HDR titles don't have immersive audio on our service: This studio is meticulous with details. They don't do one-offs. They don't play favorites when it...

    4K HDR Titles in K Store Missing Immersive Audio (Dolby Atmos/DTS:X)

    Jim and other respected forum members, We are working on features to make it really easy and have little to no effort on your part to replace movies on your system that have been improved in both audio or video.

    4K HDR Titles in K Store Missing Immersive Audio (Dolby Atmos/DTS:X)

    We love Movies Anywhere. We're in discussions with the studios about Movies Anywhere. Kaleidescape needs to be onboarded by Movies Anywhere. This is not something Kaleidescape could do by itself, nor is Kaleidescape dragging its heels about this important customer benefit due to any internal...

    4K HDR Titles in K Store Missing Immersive Audio (Dolby Atmos/DTS:X)

    We're working on the list. I believe in transparency, but there are matters I can't elaborate or comment on due to confidentiality concerns. Not all digital files are equal. Our support for immersive audio is always in lossless (TrueHD, for example) format. We've not embraced the DolbyDigital+...

    4K HDR Titles in K Store Missing Immersive Audio (Dolby Atmos/DTS:X)

    We understand your frustration and feel terrible about it. Kaleidescape's HD titles are almost always sourced from the original Blu-ray Disc. If this has the lossless immersive soundtrack, our movies will offer the same. Kaleidescape's UHD and HDR titles are sourced from mezzanine files. These...

    Kaleidescape's CEO Forum Paticipation

    Thank you, Jim and Josh. I can't thank you both enough to foster this user group. I've refrained to post because this is an independent site. My participation here is driven primarily by some members feeling that we don't communicate enough. Without our beloved customers and incredibly...

    Alto Movie Player Speculation is bad. Secrecy is bad. Transparency is good. We don't sell very many Alto movie players. Alto is approaching its 4th year anniversary. Alto proved to be a "bridge" product because it supported discs, but it also had its challenges in that it doesn't support 4K...
