    App Purchase Auto Download Decline Option

    Hello. I bought a couple of movies on sale via the app and realized that when buying in the app, it automatically forces a download. When you buy on the web page, you get an option to download or not before completing the purchase. I'd like to be able to decline the download through the app as...

    Apple TV 4K Discussion Thread

    The new Wi‑Fi 6 (802.11ax) with 2x2 MIMO is basically 1.2 Gbps Wi-Fi, so it's plenty quick for carrying higher/lossless audio/video bit rates without a port. I'm still buying and will be using the wired port version though. I kind of wish they had just made a single box at $139 given $20 isn't...

    K, Control4, & Scope Screens

    I was working on my system programming last night between K, Control4, and my JVC NX7. I established better aspect ratios lens memories for 1.78, 1.85, and 2.35/2.4 content discretely to change based on playback via K when starting a movie. It works great. I didn't have 1.85 set up before and...

    CEDIA is around the corner now (about a month away) and represents the right place and time for interesting Kaleidescape news to release. What are your hopes for CEDIA from K in terms of announcements? I'm hoping we see some real major advancements in software and UI features. I would do...

    Request for Spears & Munsil 4K Store Content

    I was thinking about 4K UHD demo content and such with K and this disc in particular: https://www.amazon.com/Spears-Munsil-Benchmark-Blu-ray-Disc/dp/B07Q2KBDKV/ref=sr_1_2?crid=1MB0H0BBXJADP&keywords=spears+munsil+4k&qid=1661182956&sprefix=spears+munsil+4k%2Caps%2C69&sr=8-2 It might be neat to...

    Collection Management in App?

    The new mobile app release notes talk about putting movies into and viewing collections. I’m not finding any new controls to manage collections, put movies in them, or see them. Anyone else? Or am I embarrassing myself by missing something so obvious? Or maybe misunderstanding this feature...

    Bundling Existing Movies

    Figured I'd make a dedicated thread on this request since the concept is spread across a few places. Many folks already have large movie libraries (myself included), which means when a bundle comes along, we may only "need" one or two of the titles. The way super bundle pricing is though, you...

    Cataloguing New Releases

    I'm curious if anyone has catalog/D2D on more recent movies. Consider the last Spider-Man, The Batman, Everything Everywhere, and new titles like that which have hit disc. Wondering what the D2D conversion prices are on these if you did them or other new releases? Thanks.

    I upgraded a while back to the EA5 and NEEO remotes and this has been sitting for too long. Can anyone make use of them? The controller has the rack ears. Maybe $150?

    Current D2D Pricing Check

    I was curious what the current state of D2D pricing is? Does it remain heavily discounted? What kind of prices per studio exist now? Are they applicable to newish releases as well?

    Strato S Discontinuing

    Seeing this being discussed around. When current stock is gone, Strato S is EOL. Seems pretty smart. A C + a Terra 6TB is a preferable buy likely for most folks, other than cost or if the single chassis is really desirable. Wonder how the S resale will go. I guess a used S can't get too close...

    Strato & Electrical Noise

    Hi all. I'm curious if anyone has noted electrical noise in your spaces with Kaleidescape equipment. I think my space is a little sensitive to this overall. I hear noise floor from my speakers in general, more than I would expect. I have also continually fought electrical noise/hum when using...

    K + Trinnov Support

    So, is there something special I need to do here? I‘ve started initial set up of the Trinnov with speaker config, bass management, and some input renaming and so on. My Strato though indicates no HDCP and the playback and everything is locked down. I didn’t move anything else or change any...

    Millennium Club (Who's With Me!)

    I was chatting with another owner and made a comment thinking I was closing in on the millennium club with 1k+ movies, so I decided to check. 1,074. Already hit it. Anyone else in the club? I benefited from getting into Kaleidescape with a hefty UV library before UV went away. Then a bunch of...
