Great to be here! Been a Kaleidescape lurker for years and it was always out of my range.
But now I would like to delve in and need some advice because it is confusing on all the equipment, what works with what and what I can do.
My main goal is to be able to have my Blu-ray collection (and a few older DVD's not available on Blu-Ray) available in the Kaleidescape system on the beautiful Kaleidescape GUI. I have some old TV shows like "Lost in Space" on Blu-Ray you can't get in the Movie store otherwise I would probably just start with a Strato 6.
Based on how I think it works.
Would it be logical to get the following and it would give me what I want?
1. A Kerver-1500 or Kserver-5000- grandfathered.
2. A M500 Player.
3. A DV700 or M700 Disc Vault.
Would that be all I need to get started for what I want?
1. If I got an M700 Vault, would I need the M500 player?
2. If it is grandfathered does that mean it will rip and store Blu-Ray's & DVD's also? I guess I'm confused on what it means to be grandfathered, in relation to the Disc Type (DVD or BluRay).
3. Could I add a Strato 6 or 12 in the future to the system and it would be seamless?
Thank you so much for bearing with me as I learn about this system.
