    So many great movies not on Kstore in 4K

    Moving content from Terra to Strato

    7 hours is not what you are referring to when it is not the internet. I understand what you wrote but it doesn’t apply in this case. I can live with 70-80 minutes. Not 5-7 hours for one hd movie.

    Moving content from Terra to Strato

    Why are the alto speeds so slow with a direct connection?

    Help - Opinion on Strato S - Would appreciate feedback

    I’m not sure but K is easier than S because no one would know what it stood for. Also, look at the bright side. The 18 TB will probably cost more than a 12 TB stratos S so you save the money between the 12 and 18 that you can put towards the Terra :)

    I don’t know where they get that. I personally have an ALTO (because of a very gracious member on this board. You know who you are. Thank you) and I have cataloged 1008 movies so far so I talk from a lot of experience. I cataloged 34 movies yesterday. I understand that but I will say this. You...

    I realize that but I don’t see how that had anything to do with the question. Most movies are still not in 4K. I want something better than those offerings. Also I’ve seen video drastically affect video quality.

    Help - Opinion on Strato S - Would appreciate feedback

    do you mean 4K to 4K or quality of blu rays vs your player? I would say 4K a 6 and blu ray a 7or 8 depending on title. I do wish they would add a high quality power supply in the unit so we could take advantage of better power cords.

    Some points I wanted to point out as well. I will do it within the original post below. Most of this is copyright issues or a staff overtaxed and will get to the movies but it takes time. I have over 200 movies cataloged that are not available to be purchased. And other ms are only available...

    Indiana Jones collection

    Also, for the record, thank you for technical explanation above. That is the type of information that I love knowing so I know what to expect to put performance in an accurate expectation.

    Indiana Jones collection

    The only reason I didn’t have the discount from the cataloged disc is because I took the Blu-ray offer one week before the 4K came out but If I waited one week then it still would’ve been cataloged. So you were saying if I waited one week I would have save $20?

    Indiana Jones collection

    I have two separate systems because they are in two separate locations. the reason they are on the same networks for a short time is because I can connect the stratos S wired to the router in the current network but where it is usually it will be over WiFi. Therefore I wanted to download 100 to...

    Indiana Jones collection

    Also for the record, I had the Indiana Jones blu ray discs cataloged on an alto. I bought the HD quality for 3.14 on a disc to digital deal. I had to pay 9.99 for the Indiana Jones 4k HDR versions. I didn't get the deals mentioned above. I thought for sure, it would have been less because it...

    Indiana Jones collection

    Two questions: 1.) Why would it be a hardware limitation as a necessary? I am not debating that it is happening. I just would like to know why? 2.) Is there a way to copy movies from a Terra server to a Strato S?

    I have a Terra Server and a Stratos S. No matter what I do the stratos S downloads slower. They both hardwired into the same router and I even swapped cables to make sure. The stratos is slower. The first 3 pics are from he Terra Server. The last pic is from the Stratos S

    Titles Not in Store

    Thanks John. That is my only fear of buying into the K experience. What if all of the content developers say, screw Kaledeiscape? I have the disc of Ransom and I can enjoy watching it on disc but with the new K hardware not having disc drives, then it points us into a direction that we have...

    Titles Not in Store

    I understand scarcity and I definitely understand how the studios couldn't care less about us K owners. There are only a few titles that surprised me. Ransom being one of those. A Ron Howard film with Mel Gibson, Rene Russo, Delroy Lindo, and Gary Sinese (spelling I'm sure is off). Great...

    If you are not running a video processor of any kind, then the stratos will provide you with a better quality video overall. The only thing I don't know 100% sure is, which one has the better audio. I use an outboard processor as do most probably on this forum. I would give it between a 5 and...
