    Premier M500 Player + Denon AVR-X8500HA Audio Question

    I upgraded to a Denon AVR-X8500HA this week. Not the largest room so this is a simple Triad 7.2 audio setup. When I attempt to play content from the pre-existing Premier M500 Player the dialog audio via the 7.2 system is quite low. The same also seems to occur if the AVR is off and HDMI...

    Premier 3U Download from Store Issue/Question

    Update. Support came back with a pre-failure on a drive. Oddly enough it is one of the newest drives. JohnJ gets the points for this one.

    Premier 3U Download from Store Issue/Question

    JohnJ: Going bad. But not bad enough to mark the drive bad and use the spare, or rely on the parity drive if you didn't have a spare? This is interesting, was considering such as I have had HDD bad sectors goof up both personal PC and network SAN file copies despite HDD management/firmware...

    Premier 3U Download from Store Issue/Question

    I wish I had the problem of speeds above 100Mbps which might be taxing the K hardware - 3U, but I don't think it's the case here. Just for reference, from the screen grab below, I can d/l a title in about an hour on average; I view that as a solid baseline. But the slowdown initially dropped...

    Premier 3U Download from Store Issue/Question

    After checking the forums for similar issues I recently bought a couple titles from the Store and also noticed I had a bunch of "updates" available for existing content. Had to have those "updates". A few terabytes of downloads later this past weekend, something seems to have broken despite a...

    Yes, the Premiere line is ending....

    Realizing that this is a nearly two year since the last update thread... If we stuck with Option 1 from the OP, what support options, if any, remain for Premier products? e.g. Service kits, 3U server P/S, T&M - out of warranty rate terms via K, et cetera Is there any third party service...

    DIY fixing issues with hardware and D2D

    I am not sure if this deserves a separate post due to thread's age, but I found some of the information on this thread helpful but have a few follow-up questions. My M500 player "died"; meaning it would not respond to a power on request. Unplugging it for 15 minutes appeared to let the power...

    NOTE ABOUT BUYING USED KDISKS (DRIVES)

    Zappati NAS and movie players

    I just ran across an "interesting to me" newsfeed article about a alledgedly shipping commercial product that seems to be a 4K equivalent to a legacy KScape Premier earlier today. Would love to have a KScape version of this due to a growing collection of 4K movies stacking up, but... Has...

    Premiere no longer shown on K's website

    As this phase-out plan has been rolling out, has any information on when Premier software will reach end of support been published; meaning no additional upgrades? e.g. Is kOS 8.5.1.xxxxx it?

    High(er) Bandwidth HDMI Cabling

    As technology matures, often one finds themselves in need of improving some supporting items. In my case I have a couple long HDMI 1.2 based runs (75' and 50'). With new features like HDMI eARC (and ARC) if you have recently completed a project where longer HDMI runs were required and did not...

    1U with suspected dead lan port

    What about the LAN port is not working? Is it a physical issue and the port really cannot be used or is it that you don't know the assigned IP address? If it's physical, well the guys above have answered well enough as I too will assume the 1U is out of warranty. If it's an unknown IP issue...

    Web Security and Kaleidescape

    I have decided to add another layer of security to my home network. What URL (or URLs) does a server or player use to talk to the Kaleidescape service cloud. Can I simply white list kaleidescape.com to ensure it is exempted from this new security mechanism? The good news is that the service...
