Displaying non-catalogued movies only in the KScape app

[sumitc]

I catalogued several movies and they now show alongside the ones that I have purchased in the iPad app. What I would like to get by default is the list that gets displayed on the Kaleidescape website under Manage/My Movies. Is there a way to filter out the catalogued movies that I have not purchased? I could create a Collection with the movies that I have purchased, but it seems like I would have to keep adding new movies that I purchase to this collection.

Folks, any thoughts on what I can do here? Thx.

Once I catalog a movie, I go back and delete it right after so it doesn’t show up on the iPad app. You still keep the digital offers.

This is what I do as well works fine

I deleted a handful of catalogued movies and interestingly all the catalogued, but not purchased, movies disappeared from the "All Movies" list on the iPad. Not sure if this is a bug, but either way, this approach is good. I am just going to delete all the catalogued movies. Like you said, the digital offers still show up for the catalogued movies I deleted. This is exactly what I was looking for. Thx!

Yup, Kaleidescape keeps track of your cataloged movies on their servers. As long as they have the licensing deal active, they will keep those movies in your digital offers. I had cataloged titles that didn’t exist on the store and they magically showed up in my digital offers later when K started carrying them. I suggest cataloging everything you got, including the titles not on the store, you will get the nice D2D discount as they become available.

This is indeed a great feature! There might be a bug though as deleting on a handful of catalogued titles resulted in all catalogued titles disappearing from the iPad. The good part is that this is exactly what I wanted. In any case, I will follow your advice and just delete titles that I don't purchase right away. Thx again!

You should only need to do this for dvd movies. Bluray behave properly.

I was seeing both Blu-ray's and DVDs show up in the list.

The list yes, but on the movie wall it would show dvd’s that you cataloged but had not purchased. It you cataloged a bluray it would not show on the movie wall until you purchased it.
