    Stop Making Sense - no upgrade from HD available?

    I watched the new A2 44K HDR version this morning. Outstanding. I feel both audio and video are improved. I compared on Kaleidescape, the 4K HDR versus ultra HD versus Blu-ray quality and you could definitely see some improvement with the 4K HDR version on my 65” LG OLED

    Stop Making Sense - no upgrade from HD available?

    I have both the blu ray disc and the blu ray quality versions. The disc has the upgrade price, there is no upgrade price at this time on the KScape blu ray quality version.

    Stop Making Sense - no upgrade from HD available?

    This is weird. If this is the new upcoming version of the concert in 4k, why is the KScape price so low at $24.95, when the disc price from A24 is $58. Makes me wonder if this price is an error?

    Star Trek: TMP- The Director’s Edition request

    Isn't the issue perhaps Paramount Plus making it available to Kaleidescape - as a special Director's Edition, Paramount Plus may consider it proprietary to their streaming service to get new customers? Of course, as its well known Paramount Plus is selling off some stuff including some Star Trek...

    New Kscape Products

    I suspect that Kaleidescape will come out with a new model of the Strato C only when parts availability necessitates this - one would think in the next few years this will occur. Doubt they want to get into tweaks like I use as this ups the cost of the Strato C and may decrease new owners buying in.

    4K Ultra HD vs. HDR

    When you purchase the movie, you can set it up to download only the HDR version, or only the UHD version (or if there's an HD version only the HD version) as well.

    Why File Sizes are Sometimes Larger for 4k UltraHD vs 4k HDR?

    Could this be because HDR video perhaps uses more compression in comparison to Ultra HD video? https://arxiv.org/ftp/arxiv/papers/1803/1803.04823.pdf

    Why File Sizes are Sometimes Larger for 4k UltraHD vs 4k HDR?

    Credit to a poster over at AVS Forum for raising this question: There are lots of movies that the UHD size is larger than the HDR version: Some examples National Lampoon's Vacation 4K HDR 50.4 GB 4K ULTRA HD 61.5 GB Superman II 4K HDR 68.1 GB 4K ULTRA HD 77.0 GB Training Day 4K HDR 64.2 GB...

    How About a New Subforum for "Concerts & Music"?

    And a subforum specifically for Dolby Atmos & Multi-channel blu ray audio discs not available in the Kaleidescape store - to hopefully show them there's enough interest to look into getting this stuff in the store!
