I tried out some more types of content and discs for the new Kaleidescape disc to digital program. Check out the results.

Couldn't help but notice on the Bruce Lee collection the one with the better D2D price was the only rotten tomato.

Warner isn't always the shiniest gem on D2D either, certainly not for shows (even ignoring all the DCAU not available in the store in HDR.)

• Kung Fu S1-2 $24.99 > $19.36 (DVD-SD)
• Westword S1 $29.99 > $24.07 (BD-HD, more ironic since the disc is from the 4K set)
• Smallville S1-10 $29.99 > 24.59 (DVD-HD or BD-HD)
• Batman Beyond S1-3 $19.99 > 17.27 (DVD-HD)
• Batwoman $24.99 > $20.93 (BD-HD)
• Young Justice S2 (the only one currently in the store) $19.99 > $17.27 (BD-HD)
• True Blood S1-7 $29.99 > $20.93 (BD-HD)
• Titans $29.99 > $24.59 (BD-HD)
• Krypton S1-2 $24.99 > $20.93 (BD-HD)
• gen:Lock S1 $19.99 > $17.27 (BD-HD)
• Lethal Weapon S1 $24.99 > $19.03
• Gotham S1-4 $24.99 > $20.93 S5 $19.99 > $17.27 (BD-HD)
• Superman S1/3 $9.99 > $8.37 while S2 $19.99 > $15.87 (DVD-SD)
• Superman: Braniac Attacks $19.99 > $9.80 (BD-HD)
• Lois & Clark: The New Adventures of Superman S1-4 $24.99 > $23.02 (DVD-SD)

To name a few, so it's not just a House of Dragons thing. That said, RWBY (later seasons,) Batman: Long Halloween (Parts 1 & 2 - but not Deluxe, before it disappeared anyway,) Deathstroke, MK Legends, and some others are properly pi'd. Conversely, there's movies like Superman IV at $9.99 > $8.64 for BD-SD, and The Batman (2022) $24.99 > $21.15 for BD-HDR (again from a 4k set,) so really hit or miss and hard to gauge whether going the D2D route is cheaper than just buying straight-up.

My take on the new addition of Content Sets to the Kaleidescape movie and TV series store. A great new addition and effective price reduction!

I wrote up a neat macro in my Control4 system for Kaleidescape that folks might be interested in trying out. It replicates the Apple TV "what did they say" feature. Check it out in the video.

Also, Techthusiasm just hit 10K subscribers and 2M+ total views. Pretty cool. Thanks for your support!

It is annoying that K doesn’t have discreet subtitle on and subtitle off commands.

I put this together for all the new folks coming into the Kaleidescape platform. Here's a list of a few tweaks and tips to get the most out of your system and platform experience.

New, full, deep dive Techthusiasm home theater tour is live on the YouTube channel. Check it out! Of course, Kaleidescape is front and center, but I've made a ton of great updates in the last 6 months.

Great job Jeramy... very well done video of your amazing theater room. Impressive project and more so that you did it as a DIY'er.

As a new Kaleidescape owner, I’ve found your setup and deep dive videos incredibly helpful. Now I need to learn some self-control. It’s just too easy to buy movies.
