4K HDR Titles in K Store Missing Immersive Audio (Dolby Atmos/DTS:X)

Your updates to the front page accurately reflect Cheena's notes, but we do have a few updates on Atmos availability. Status changes reflected below:

- A Quiet Place - Available now with Atmos
- Gods of Egypt - Available now with DTS:X

- Mission: Impossible Rogue Nation - Atmos coming 2019
- Braveheart - Atmos coming 2019
- Warm Bodies - 4K with Atmos coming 2019

- Gladiator - No Atmos
- First Blood - No Atmos
- Rambo - No Atmos
- Rambo III - No Atmos

Luke, thank you for the information on the audio upgrades.

Question on bookmarked Scenes. Looks like most major studios have pre-bookmarked Scenes except Paramount downloads. Is there a contractual reason that there are no Scenes for Paramount movies? Will they be added?
 
Different studios grant us different permissions for extra features. If you don't see Scenes on a prominent film, it is intentional and typically involves rights and permissions.

We don't comment on futures.

As a related topic, here are scenes that I mainly copied over from Paramount disc versions and added to the HD and HDR download versions:

Warm Bodies in 4K with HDR will be available from Kaleidescape on 1/15/2019.

It looks like there may have been a brief permissions error which showed the title as downloadable for UV rights holders. That should be fixed now.
 
Added

Fox
“Widows” (Atmos)
“Bohemian Rhapsody” (Atmos)

Universal
“Dr. Suess’ The Grinch” (Atmos)

Removed from list

Lionsgate
“Warm Bodies” (Atmos)
“Saban’s Power Rangers” (Atmos)
 
Also Removed from list as Disc versions don’t have Atmos or DTS:X...

Lionsgate
First Blood
Rambo: First Blood Part II
Rambo III
 
ATMOS updates coming to the store this weekend on UHD versions of the films:

Ford v. Ferrari
Deadpool
The Greatest Showman
Great news Luke - wonderful to see things moving so positively for K. Hope all this activity results in increased sales.
 
"Hans Zimmer: Live in Prague" - the HD version has the wonderfully immersive Dolby Atmos mix, but the newly released HDR version only has DTS-HD Master Audio 5.1! It's an upgrade to video, but a loss of immersive audio. Pretty please, Kaleidescape gurus, can we have both?

Also, the audio levels are really low on the HDR version - there must have been some problems in the content coming from the studio or during encoding.

I agree that the audio levels are low on the HDR version - half the volume of the HD Atmos soundtrack. Something is off.

John

and yes, give me the Atmos track with the HDR version...
