    Network Flattened

    Yesterday, I decided to purchase an HDR movie. After making the purchase I went about the rest of my day working online. At some point later in the day, I noticed I couldn't hit any websites. I experienced complete internet inaccessibility. After starting to troubleshoot the issue, the issue...

    DIY fixing issues with hardware and D2D

    "Pogo board" - interesting. Never heard of that. How should I clean them. Actually, is there some guide / manually that describes what / where they are and how to maintain them?

    DIY fixing issues with hardware and D2D

    Yep, I'm sure. Actually, slight correction - I can see the blue lights in the dark, but they are very, very faint, even if set to the brightest setting on the web configuration page.

    DIY fixing issues with hardware and D2D

    I have an older M700 and the blue LEDs don't light up anymore. That said, when the unit loses connectivity with the server, the amber lights show up just fine. I always figured the same LEDS were used but just displayed different colors. Is there a separate set of LEDs to handle normal...

    Replication?

    Folks, thanks so much for this additional information! I really do appreciate it. Everything from confirming the order of import, to this additional information about stopping and starting the replication. And yes, having every movie be marked as new really is annoying because we use...

    Replication?

    That is interesting information. So, I wonder in what order it does the replication. Looks like it started replicating the last item I bought for the 3U server. If it’s working in reverse chronological order, then I might follow your tips, leave the replication going, and just pair all the...

    Replication?

    Sigh... Got tied up and was unable to kick off the replication until now. According to the replication projection, it will take about 27 days to complete. Unfortunately, it looks like the players are not allowed to connect during the replication process, which I guess makes sense. It's just...

    US BR & 4K Releases for November & December 2020

    Just saw that Wonder Woman: 1984 will stream on HBO Max this Christmas. I wonder if we might see it pop up on Kscape too.

    Replication?

    Nice! I went from 2 racks back down to 1. I had a sprawling Crestron system that was aging. Ditched that for consumer stuff (SONOS connect amps, Ring doorbell, etc) all working with Alexa. Only thing in the rack is that stuff, Anthem pre-pro/amps and the k-scape gear. Would have loved to...

    Replication?

    @sirgadget I would entertain that but I have to send Kaleidescape my old 3U as part of the upgrade deal, unfortunately. I'll miss that server. It has served us well for a long time and (I think) looks more attractive than the 1U+. Still looks impressive glowing in the equipment rack. Oh...

    Replication?

    Wow, what a detailed response. Thank you SO MUCH for this! One question, when you say music CD's and Blu-Ray discs are not affected by DVD CSS support status - you mean I'll be able to import them without issue, right? Just want to make sure. Thanks again for taking the time to provide this...

    Replication?

    Folks, I was just informed by my dealer that my new 1U+ servers are ready for delivery. I ended up getting 2 30TB servers to replace my 1 48TB 3U server. So, I was wondering how replication works. Let's say I get these servers, put them on my network and fire them up. How do I get my 3U to...

    Strato C & Harmony Elite

    Thanks so much for the suggestion. That was it. Works flawlessly now. I completely forgot about the button configuration functionality in the Elite. Everything works perfectly and all with the flashers that came with the remote. Outstanding! Thanks everybody for all your help!

    Strato C & Harmony Elite

    Interesting. I guess that’s done by default on the M 500 harmony device. I don’t recall having to map the physical buttons ever before. OK, I’ll certainly try that out and report back. Thanks!

    Strato C & Harmony Elite

    Folks, Again, thanks for all the great suggestions. I went back and deleted the M 500 device and only included the Harmony device associated with the Strato C, which again, appears as a rather generic “Kaleidescape DVD player“. Still the problem remains. I am able to fully control this Strato C...

    Strato C & Harmony Elite

    Thanks so much for all the info! So, it looks like I have full control - including during movie play - both from the Kaleidescape remote AND the Harmony Elite, but for the Elite, I have to go into the K-scape player device and push nextt/prev/stop/etc on the remote's touch screen. I don't have...

    Strato C & Harmony Elite

    Ok, this is all very interesting. I really appreciate all your insights on this. So, I am able to move around on the Covers page and on movie lists. I can even start / resume movies - but i lose control at that point. What's really weird is that I thought the Strato responded to flashers, so...

    What kind of cable are you using from the Hub to the Strato C IR Input?

    Strato C & Harmony Elite

    So, I'm having trouble getting the Strato to respond properly to the Harmonmy Elite. I just got a Strato C and Co-Starred it to a M500. Previously, i had full contro of the M500 through Harmony Elite - that means full navigation through the player's menus and full control while a movie ois...
