    Songs missing from CD import

    I've reported an issue where songs are now missing from a previous CD import. The fault has been likely attributed to a recent change in vendor who provides the metadata service. Has anybody else experienced this issue? What you'll find is, say a CD contains 15 songs, about half of them will be...

    Kaleidescape and Krell Foundation 7.1

    By any chance do any Kaleidescape system owners here have a Krell Foundation 7.1? Why I ask is I have a bit of a whacky audio issue with my M700 and the Krell has something to do with it. I listen to music via the M700 analog audio outputs connected directly to my Halcro dm8 preamp. I only use...

    Tip: Empty Trash before grouping servers

    When grouping servers, any content that is in the trash of one server, kOS will automatically move any duplicate content in the movie/music library of the other server into the trash as well. Resulting in that content "disappearing" from your library! My scenario was this. File systems A and B...

    "Problem Reading Disc" Error

    I don't understand this error message when playback is from the server (playback pauses and this message appears in the top right corner of the display). Is the error related to reading data off the HDD, or is it related to the Vault verifying that disc in the slot?

    Coverart presentation with missing BR

    If I recall at one point in the past, if a BR disc was missing from the vault then it would be "greyed out" slightly in the covers and list views, to make it more evident that the movie can't be played. Has something changed recently? I have just sent off a number of BR to Kaleidescape for video...
