    Not all 4K D2D upgrades showing in downloads? - UK Store

    The photo shows you have the 4K version downloaded to 'Cabin'. HDR version won't show on the screen when you look at the movie list if your TV / Screen can't handle HDR. Perhaps I misunderstood the point.

    1u server has power but no status light or newtwork connectiob

    Fingers crossed 🤞 On the plus side it is a relatively cheap on compared to the alternatives so good luck.

    1u server has power but no status light or newtwork connectiob

    Sounds like the PSU is gone. Original PSU's were impossible to find (at least for me anyway) so I did find an alternative solution that I posted on the forum a couple of years ago that is still a working solution for a couple of 1U's I have and the cost is <$200 and easy to do, have a search for...

    1u server has power but no status light or newtwork connectiob

    Building upon what Andy wrote it could also be that the PSU that isn't able to supply the needed power, it looks to work but doesn't fully. I had a similar problem but there was also a disk that was producing lots of errors (K-Scape identified the issue) so a new PSU and disk installed and the...

    Planning my Kaleidescape entry – feedback please!

    Fully understand that and have >7000 films and TV series on my Premier servers a lot of which will never be in the store. I have added 2 Terra's to my system but still space there and whilst I still buy DVD's (not often Blu-ray disks) especially TV series as have to have the set!

    1U power supply replacement (maybe)

    For me when it started to fail it would just stop and then when left some time it would restart but sometimes the drives lit but didn't always spin as perhaps there was not enough power available from the PSU. I'm still using the solution I posted back some time ago and it remains working.

    Concerts on an audiophile audio system

    I do the same and use Roon but have dropped the physical media part from my systems. Strato sounds good and the visuals are great I agree for concerts but for a pure listening experience I still prefer the sound from my Linn Klimax DSM

    Movies on Sale...

    Because there is a huge amount of material not available in the store that is / was available on disk and even more so when you compare the UK store to the US one. In the past book marking was free and all users benefited from an owner sending their disks to K, myself especially as I provided...

    Eras and Renaissance

    Go on admit it, your secret is safe here..... you are a secret fan just like people my age would never admit to buying or listening to a Duran Duran album ;)

    Best practice to turn off Terra Prime servers.

    RAID-K is for Premier Line systems, Terra servers are not 'raided' as if the disk fails the content can be restored from the store after the failed drive is replaced so there is no need for Raid.

    1U replacement power supply 'solution'

    I used the Mini-Box PicoPSU-160-XT as it was the only solution could find as the original PSU's are impossible to find and any other open rail PSU's are / were too big to fit in the case. I am still using the solution for the best part of 3 years now without issue in 2 of my 1U's which are left...

    Problem playing back DVD / Blu-ray content from Premiere system

    I agree with Andy, best to wait and see what K Support say from the logs etc. As for library size that isn't a worry (unless you have to reload from disks :cry: ) as I have >7000 DVD titles on my 3U and >2200 CD's without issue. I have very very occasionally had an error reading disk and...

    How many DVD/SD quality titles do you own?

    Around 7000 DVD titles, 100 Blu Ray ones and 2700 CD's on my Premier system of which the majority are not in the store so will stay on the Premier system. Going back to the question around 20 SD disks on my Terra system from the store which are mainly TV series where there is no HD version...

    He is in the NJ in the US and I have bought from him several times in the past and always been happy.

    What's the one feature...

    That is what I do for those that I don't want to pay to be bookmarked, not the most elegant solution but it saves going through all the trailers etc.
