    KEAOS Software Comments and Requests

    Quite correct. I recall someone mentioning a few years back that Lumagen can't do Dolby Vision because Dolby won't even license it to video processors, Dolby wants it limited to the display or player. Shame! Though both Lumagen and MadVR accomplish in effect what Dolby Vision could at best do...

    The Last Picture Show

    Brings back memories. 1971-72. I was a freshman at University of Minnesota, Minneapolis, walking down the main campus, and a gorgeous blonde was walking maybe 20 feet in front of me, with cameras on her. Turns out it was Cybil Shepard, then I think 19, and they were filming this movie! Recently...

    Extended Warranties from Kaleidescape

    I've seen a few posts indicating that if you have a Kaleidescape component currently still in the original warranty period, that you can purchase an extended warranty from Kaleidescape. So is this so and if so, what's the price and extended warranty period per component?

    Billy Lynn's Long Halftime Walk - 4k HDR Listed, But Only 1080p 59.94 Hz?

    I was just surprised to see my 4k HDR KScape version of this 4k HDR blu ray, on my Lumagen Radiance Pro 5348 info menu, shows its only 1080p! Can others check on this, as it could be a Lumagen bug since there's so very few 4k HDR 59.94Hz movies.

    Could K combine the audio track from HD and the video from the 4k HDR to give us the better audio even if the studio hasn't provided it all in the 4k HDR file? Obviously their contract with the studio would have to permit this. Brett, how about checking into whether this might be feasible? I...
