    Stop Making Sense - no upgrade from HD available?

    @MikeKobb is this correct? Possibly due to being released by different studio/distributor? Thanks.

    Set adjustable delay before movie starts (for Trinnov owners)

    When starting a movie with a Trinnov processor, it takes a few seconds for the audio track to lock in. This results in video, but no audio until the audio locks in. The only way to keep it from happening is to start the movie and the hit pause for a few seconds. I’ve jut read that on a Zidoo...

    If you're looking for the Atmos/DTS:X track...

    I know I've run into this before, but there are instances on K where the Atmos is not with the HDR/UHD, but only the HD: The Great Wall First Man Pacific Rim: Uprising

    SOLD: Alto Player (6 TB) $1,199

    Good condition. Works great, both for cataloging discs and having an additional 6TB of storage for Blu-Ray and DVD quality movies/tv/concerts. The decal has come off a bit on the insert/eject button. (It's not worn off, it's not been used that much!) I've included a close-up shot so you can...

    What's the one feature...

    that would really improve the experience? For me it would be the ability to hide Collections (specifically - New, Played, Scenes, Scripts & Songs) from the Collections view, so that we wouldn't have to always scroll by them to see our collections (Animation & Kids, Company, Concerts, Demo, FYC...

    viewing angles calculator

    Ran across this calculator and thought I'd pass it on to any interested fellow K owners. Just follow this link, enter the info and when you click “Create Drawing” a report will download to your downloads folder.

    Who's got 10.14.0?

    Thought it might be interesting to see where it lands first. ...nada here...

    Ability to "hide" Collections (well, just 3 actually)

    We like using the Collections view, but would like the ability to scroll through the collections without "Played," "Scenes" and "Songs" (as they are never selected.) Thank you.

    "Special Pricing" - ability to sort for Movies or TV

    That way, when wanting to look only at movies on sale, there aren't any titles shown 5-10x because they are TV shows. Alternatively, group TV series under a single cover. Thank you.

    Ability to change subtitle position, font size and brightness/color

    Already using the setting to always reposition within the movie image, but would like additional adjustment ability to minimize distraction for guests who are sensitive to subtitles taking up too much of the frame/being too bright.

    Separating Terra & Strato, but keeping them on the same system

    Currently I see a single view of all titles on both machines. As the Alto contains concerts and the Terra, movies, (with the exception of the handful that are UHD/HDR,) I'm considering separating them as I'd like to be able to view only movies from the "my movies" or "all my movies" view. Is...

    Ability to delete (or at least hide) titles - from My Movies and Digital Offers

    For My Movies - Titles that have been watched where we'd be happy to never have to see the title or cover again (i.e.: they are not currently and will never again be downloaded.) For Digital Offers - Like many K owners, we still maintain a small disc-based library. We've stopped trying to...

    SOLD: McIntosh MX160

    McIntosh MX160 in good condition. This is a 16 channel processor with 12 discreet channels and options for matrixed Wides and Top Middles. The primary differences between this and the MX170 or MX180 are the number of discreet channels and HDMI inputs. Point being, there is no sound quality...

    Why K?

    I posted this on another site, and realizing that others here might have an interest, am re-posting. I'd be interested in hearing what brought others to K if anyone wishes to share. Thanks. Personally, I didn't move to K for better quality than I get with physical media (or 1:1 copies with...

    Editing Collections with M1 Mac

    Believe it was @MikeKobb who pointed out that Second Screen (iPad app) will run on an M1 Mac. We've got a limited number of Collections, but always found when dealing with multiple movies that setting the Collection(s) applicable to each a bit clumsy with any of the three ways to do so (the...

    Cinema One vs Alto for blu-ray cataloging

    loading scripts

    When I load a script, it only loads scenes that exist in my library. That's not unexpected, but I can see that I somehow was able to load the Marvel Chronological script, even though I don't (yet) own any MCU titles. Is it possible to load scripts where you don't have all of the scenes? I...
