    Very interesting points to take in. Thanks.

    M500 vs M700

    Thanks for the responses. I suppose the question for me is - Is the price difference worth it? It seems a lot to not have to get off the sofa to change a disc!

    M500 vs M700

    I'm considering an upgrade from the 2500 to either an M500 or M700 - can anyone recommend one over the other? Other than the obvious carousel is there much of an advantage or any other features that would justify the additional cost for the M700? Thanks Mawilla

    DTS Decoder Software Not Hardware in Movie Players...

    DTS & DD I experienced that very earlier on, and what's more annoying is that the menus are not in DTS like the movie, so you can hear the audio over the menu. That had me stumped for some time.

    ideas

    I think providing the original DVD software is sold with the content on the server it shouldn't be a problem, as discussed elsewhere, you need to own the originals. Does booker want to sell his entire movie collection?

    HD Titles

    I agree with JerryL, I would be prepared to pay for movies through a Transport disk. I was told recently that there isn't a plan for an HD Collection as the current players don't play BluRay or HD-DVD and is still an unapproved format and when the collections are bought from Kscape you actually...

    Should Kaleidescape have a remote?

    I would like to see a Kscape remote, as I'm not entirely happy with my Crestron set-up, I only like the Kscape in my house but would rather not have the whole "control" concept for the rest of the house.

    Legal Stuff

    At ridiculous prices I did buy a few but didn't want to put them on for fear of any wrong doings from FBI and Kscape. I suppose technically as I own the DVD it is OK but it will still show up as a rented DVD will it not? Also is the shop (now defunct) in breach of legalities as it sold...

    Legal Stuff

    A small DVD rental shop closed down in our town recently and sold off its stock. It is illegal to put rented software ie. material that you do not own on the Kscape server, if the software has been sold such as in this case does that therefore mean that material can be put on the machine?

    Anyone else's Reader sometimes "possessed"?

    It was always an intention later on once the system has been established and seeing how good it is to add a 2nd movie player, I'll ask Father Christmas!!!

    Anyone else's Reader sometimes "possessed"?

    Thats all very true. I think because the Rotel doesn't handle multiple outputs the audio distribution is being fed through Crestron audio processors which by the sound of things don't do decode or process DTS. I can have DTS in the living room as 7.1 but in doing so it looks as though, if I...

    Anyone else's Reader sometimes "possessed"?

    Josh, this is the installers response: "Just had word back from Kaleidescape. Kaleidescape is unable to decode DTS, so it passes it down to the Rotel (my amp)which can. But the L/R out of the Kaleidescape going to all the other rooms will get no audio. Only fix for this is under the installer...

    HD Titles

    Does anyone know if Kscape are going to release an HD collection Disk? You can buy collections such as "best films of all time" etc from them, but it would be nice, now that there is a lot of HD software available to add these to our servers.

    Anyone else's Reader sometimes "possessed"?

    Josh, I found that DTS doesn't work in the kitchen either. I have highlighted this issue with the installer and they are looking into it, thanks for your help.

    Anyone else's Reader sometimes "possessed"?

    Thanks Josh, changing the setting from DTS to DD or PCM (I don't know what that is?) helped. But is it a programming error why it doesn't output DTS in the Bedroom but it does in the living room?

    Blu-ray and HD-DVD

    I had an email conversation a little while back with K support about this, and it looks as though it will be a new player altogether. However HD content can be stored and put on the server via a transport disk. My dealer is trying ot get hold of the equipment so they can put HD software on to...

    Anyone else's Reader sometimes "possessed"?

    I'm not sure how it all works to be honest! I think the Crestron AV2 controls everything. I'm pretty conviced it is a programming issue, as I tried rebooting the K-player but it didn't work howvere reebooting the AV2 seemed to sort it. I've recently had another problem in that no audio comes...

    How many Kaleidescape units shipped?

    Apple takeover Wouldn't it be great if an innovative company like Apple bought KScape, so iTunes content (Songs, HD movies, trailers etc) could be imported straight to the player?

    Anyone else's Reader sometimes "possessed"?

    Sticky player Has anyone had any problems with their player sticking. I have had a problem where you scroll in the list or art page and you can't stop it from scrolling? I'm unsure if this is a Kscape problem or a Crestron programming issue?
