    Updates from Kaleidescape Marketing

    Yes, indeed. I was putting it out there, assuming that Amanda is involved in this aspect of marketing.

    I did not know about the document; thanks for posting the link; it looks like light reading. :)

    Updates from Kaleidescape Marketing

    Let me rephrase: It would be helpful if the movie store provided details about the upgrade. List the enhancements, including color grading, clean-up, or other preservation efforts. Many enthusiasts would appreciate the kind of nerdy stuff about movie preservation. They must provide you all...

    Concerned about the longevity of the Server.

    Indeed, a comprehensive warranty like that would cover everything from minor repairs to major issues. It's challenging to base it solely on usage, considering these drives operate 24/7. I ensure mine is always connected to a battery backup, similar to how servers are set up, providing stability...

    Updates from Kaleidescape Marketing

    Amanda, when a movie transitions from HD to UHD, what's the process like? Is it a full rescan of the source film to 4K or just an upsample? Also, how does color grading and VFX enhancements factor into the upgrade? If Audio is also upgraded? It would be nice if the movie store would provide some...

    Concerned about the longevity of the Server.

    I would like to see a service agreement similar to Dell and other companies. I would be willing to pay an annual fee to ensure coverage for drive repair or replacement past the five-year mark, at least, or a generous trade-in model.

    Godzilla - Minus One

    I wrote to Movies@ about the Godzilla Minus One. "Thank you for your Inquiry" "I do not have specific information about if/when the title may be available. Please keep an eye out on the recently added categories for further details."

    What's the one feature...

    To turn off the menu “fly out” while browsing titles. I hate this SoMuch that I have keep scrolling to avoid it. Blocking the two adjacent tiles kills me a little each time.

    How many UHD will fit on a Terra 48 - ChatGPT

    ChatGPT is limited to data from 2021 or some such cut off date, its not using current info to deliver the information. It took a while to pull up the response, I suspected it would fail to answer, I thought the numbers are conservative.

    How many UHD will fit on a Terra 48 - ChatGPT

    I asked ChatGPT, (whom I think of Douglas until I find a better name) how many disk will fit on my 48. Here for you amusement is Douglas's answer. "The number of movies in UHD that will fit on a Kaleidescape Terra 48 depends on several factors, such as the length of the movies, the resolution...

    Store "Hole" Feedback

    Exorcist 3, which I think is the best, it has a particular scene that literally gave me goose bumps the fist time I saw it.

    Seat Actuators or Video Processor

    I love my Crowsons, I have 3 subs plus the Crowsons, you have to make sure to not over do it, when tuned correctly they are excellent for the really low bass. A room changing add for us. I drive them off the Sub-outs on my JL Audio subs, which are controlled by a Trinnov AL16, a very tidy...

    Storm MK3

    That is inherent with Software decoding vs chip based. It does take about 30 seconds to boot my AL16, but that is hardly an issue, it takes that long from my OLED to come alive and be ready. I guess you can include AMP warm ups for optimal sound.

    Lip Sync Test Disc in the Store

    I have recently changed to Video out direct to Screen on my OLED and then Audio out to Trinnov. The lip sync issue that was not an issue, is now that I am direct. I watched Thor Love and Thunder, it was bad. Then last night Harry Potter Order of the Phoenix and was not distracted by sync issues.

    Storm MK3

    You will miss: Software decoding that keeps up with evolving codecs vs chip based, a multi channel microphone (4 mics on single mic base) for precise alignments, I can do a room scan from a single location or as many as I have seats I typically do 3 one on ether side of prime listening seat and...

    KEAOS (Software) UPDATES

    I think that they need to offer this in the future, could be a phased rollout and most likely the DV info is already in the films and only needs to have the licensing.

    Will we ever see SSD's instead of HDD's in new or repaired systems?

    Oh gosh, how embarrassing, I have misremember the size of my Terra, you are correct its a 48, not sure why the 54 is what I remembered. So they are RAID 0.

    KEAOS (Software) UPDATES

    I too would like to see DV on K, our screen is a modest 77" OLED. I would be interested to know the K user data on screen size and type.

    Will we ever see SSD's instead of HDD's in new or repaired systems?

    After a bit of playing around, it could 5 16TB disks in RAID6 for 48TB available
