    Planning my Kaleidescape entry – feedback please!

    Once you add the Terra, all movies downloaded will go to the Terra (until it's full) and will take advantage of Terra's faster download speeds. (Assuming your internet service and local network support the higher speeds.)

    Best studios for deals D2D?

    With Twentieth Century you are better off waiting for a sale which will be lower than the D2D price. I did that with The Great Escape.

    Store Sort By Price

    The one caveat to this is if you have deleted your cataloged disks in your library because you don't want them listed on your KScape UI movie list along with your downloaded movies, the disks will then show up on K's website as Unowned with your D2D pricing.

    The Expanse

    Don't get me wrong, I am not knocking the series, it was well done. I actually watched the series before I read any of the books. If you like to read and have the time, I still recommend anyone who enjoyed the series to read the books.. It's a great story IMHO.

    The Expanse

    The books are REALLY good. Although the series stayed fairly close to the books at first, the series strayed somewhat towards the end with the last year not really coming to any kind of meaningful conclusion of the story.

    Standard Def (SD) titles….

    Only SD title I have is Jeremiah Johnson. Unwatchable, really bad. I actually deleted it and downloaded it again thinking I must have gotten a "bad" file. So bad I'm wondering if my Lumagen setup is incorrect for SD as I don't think K would let a file out looking like this. I have a Sony...

    What's the one feature...

    Back when I was collecting disks, I cataloged them in a program called DVD Profiler. One of its very nice features was it created a web link associated with my collectiont which I could give out. It just listed my movies, normally latest first (although you may have been able to change that...

    D2D Pricing Question

    Assuming this is not an error, D2D just isn't a perk anymore. $1.50 - $2.00 savings.........I mean why bother? I don't know how much warning K gets on increases, but if you are going to have this large of studio wide increases, a price increase coming heads up would be nice. I'm also...

    DTS and Dolby ATMOS on 4k

    Thanks, yes my real quandary was why object based audio was not always with the better video. I often just pick HDR for downloading. My assumption being if an object based codec is available it's on the 4K disk, so if it's not shown with HDR it's not available. I've noticed that's not always...

    DTS and Dolby ATMOS on 4k

    Dumb question. When a movie is mastered in 4K how is the sound track format decided. Is it always one or the other, Dolby or DTS? Do they ever do both? I'm always surprised when I see a KScape HDR 4K movie in DTS-HD with the HD (Blu-Ray) version in Dolby Atmos. It seemed with disks, the 4K...

    New kOS release supports disc cataloging on Strato

    I don't believe so. I know when new digital offers become available you'll get a notice when you go to K's web site. I believe the movie "Nine" recently became available and it showed up as a new digital offer on my list.

    New kOS release supports disc cataloging on Strato

    You can go to your Movies-Collection-All list in your my-kaleidescape network menu. Select the ones you want to delete and delete. This will remove them from your Strato UI. They will still show up in your Digital Offer list on the KScape website. They will be treated as unowned on the...
