    Disney and CEO Bob Iger

    Interesting. Does the Bob Iger realize the deal that was made with Kaleidescape? Not sure if his views/statements in this YouTube interview with Vanity Fair can be reconciled with how Disney content is managed in the Kaleidescape ecosystem. Iger quoting Walt Disney "Technology extends the...

    US Releases for September & October 2015

    Big Bang Theory I understand this thread is not necessarily about TV shows, but it is very annoying that Big Bang Theory season 8 is available in the store as DVD quality, but not HD quality. I've seen the show on TV, but really enjoy watching episodes before the new season. Should I buy this...

    The store has Disney, Marvel and Pixar!!!!

    The movies should show up in any of Google Play, Vudu and iTunes via Disney AnyWhere service to the extent you have linked any of those accounts with your Disney account. The attached screenshot is what I see. The restriction seems to be switching which account at one of the 3 providers you...

    Kscape 3U Unit

    My problem was solved by the time I got home. 3U server not rebooting in a loop like it was last night/this morning. While I was at work, Kaleidescape pushed v5.4.2 to my system. I missed a call earlier from them today, but they left a voicemail to contact them for a fix. My guess was the...

    Kscape 3U Unit

    Note that there seems to be a very recent issue with 3U server rebooting (at least for me started last night v5.4.1 updated on 7/21/14). My 1U seems stable (maybe), but 3U cannot be discovered. The 1U goes on and offline periodically. I talked with K support and they are aware of the issue...

    Second system download question

    A better design would understand the player/system is DVD only and present only those download options. I'm not saying that's simple, only that such a design would be better and eliminate confusion.

    Second system download question

    "Norman argues that in most cases this isn?t so. The designer is to blame because they produced something that?s not easy to understand or something that lets errors and misuse happen. If we have trouble using something then it?s probably because that thing is badly designed, rather than us...

    Kaleidescape now charging to scan unrecognized discs

    And here's some CDs that don't have cover art. At one point, they all did, but not so much anymore. Every time I update the cover art over the years, it gets overwritten at some point. Anthrax State of Euphoria Arcade Fire The Suburbs The Avett Brothers I and Love and You Bon Jovi Cross Road...

    Kaleidescape now charging to scan unrecognized discs

    I have a fair number of mainstream titles - all Region 1. But for the titles that are missing bookmarks, most are certainly mainstream, except for the Supreme Court stuff, Red v. Blue and the poker stuff. Downtown Abbey, The Closer, Damages, House - these are pretty mainstream - Fringe...

    Kaleidescape now charging to scan unrecognized discs

    Wow Peter, 200 DVD/bluray titles. That would drive me crazy. I save them up and send them in when I approach 50 titles with missing bookmarks. With this change it's now like a roulette wheel when you import something. Face to palm if you important a season of a tv series having 6 discs and...

    Kaleidescape now charging to scan unrecognized discs

    Ugh - $10/disc is even worse than $10/title. I bought the series of Red vs Blue and probably 20 of those discs in the series aren't recognized. Processing would cost more than I spent on the series. I've been saving up imported movies to package them together. I have 36 titles that need to...

    DVD CCA appeal "settled"?

    The interview Q&A did answer the question about legacy system repairs and upgrades. I would guess that those words were chosen carefully. It would seem that the concern might be about spawning additional legacy systems in some way. I'll leave it up to others to speculate how, but it's doable...
