false advertising this movie is absolutely terrifying

I tried bringing an old VHS video to 4K, but it looked terrible. 480p video to 720p is much better. 1080p to 4k works well.

I still have my 65" Panasonic viera that converts to 3d, i also have an epson thw 1700 that i project on a wall at almost 190" i use rechargeable active glasses that work on both ,bought cheaply from amazon and work perfectly well. I have around 70 films. One of my favourites for immersive 3d is sin city 2. Just wish they would bring out more films. Avatar 2 showed glitch free 3d , please bring it back.

I have a question, what produces the best quality? Upscaling from 1080 to 4k or scaling 30fps to 60fps in 4k? Which takes longer to render?

Which center goes with bp9040? Thanks.

After their last major price increase, I was only able to buy used 😮‍💨 Most of the movies are 🖕expensive, especially in Canada. Not all movies are on K, disappointing 😒 If you're not watching 4k Atmos, probably stick to Apple TV / Disney better of the bunch for streaming. This company only cares about the 1% and not the little guy. The player is not badly priced, but the HD`s are 🖕 out to lunch... If you only have a 4k disk, you're kind of 🖕 to scan it into your library.

Anhand deiner einmessung kann ich erkennen das deine subwoofer zu laut eingestellt sind. Lautstärkenregler auf 9 Uhr stellen Crossover 150hz LFE

Hm, what does the screen actually do here? It shows the activities through which you can scroll, my Harrnony Companion has 3 buttons for 3 activities - it does not show which activity is active and can only use 6 activities (using long press for activities 4-6) but otherwise the X1S screen seems pretty useless. Maybe useful during set-up only?

LIAR!!!!

Nail on. the head on the storage cost. Makes no sense.

how does this work with fixing soft focus?

I purchased a 5040ub for under $1000 with two extra bulbs. Very happy with purchase.

While i can't afford this , i am very happy to have a 2 petabyte plex server

Why do you have to turn the volume all the way up to about 30 to hear comfortable it goes from -80 to 16 i think

Anyone know if it supports any android boxes like superbox or Vseebox

How do you remove the sock? I have the same issue as you but afraid of damaging the sock.

Can I repair only one part of the video and not the rest, and then merge the repaired and unrepaired parts when exporting? I tried to repair some clips in the video before, but I could only export the repaired parts, and then I had to merge them in the editing software. I don't know if I haven't found a way or it is not supported yet.

Just had the same issue with my Vizio. Sent it off to the repair guy you recommended and within a week I had the repaired board back and a working tv. Thanks!

What hardware specifications are needed to use this software so that the process is not slow.. Is a high processor also needed?

FUN FACT: The “City of Lights” leitmotif was later reused in Randy Newman’s rejected score for Air Force One as the main theme leitmotif. Some pieces that Newman originally scored for Air Force One were reused in Toy Story 3

I bought an HDR1000 Monitor because I was curious about TRUE HDR. But yea SDR is wayyy more consistent, and although some HDR content looks good with bright glowing swords and deep blacks in games, some stuff Is just dark crushed. I think I'll stick with SDR mode until they can figure it out.

Topaz is an excellent product if you have 10 days to spare to enhance a 2 hour movie

$5000 for 8tb? Thats a joke. With fully uncompressed movie files roughlt around 45gb each that 177movies on 8tb. So $22 a movie? With 22tb @ $14000 that $28 a movie. How is that better value. This shit is horrendous and you dont own the media

Great Video - Appreciate you doing this!!!

Great video. Just bought using your link. Thanks.

So mine will handle about 48% slower than the 2080 as I have the A2000 RTX, so that would be just under 24 hours for a 100 minute movie?

Is YPAO useful at all with a 2.1 speaker setup?

I have seen a few 2D converted to 3D using A.I. and they are total B.S. No depth at all. They would just offset the entire right eye view a little from the left eye view. Fake 3D and not one iota of depth.

I have 3 BenQ projectors. The best one being a 4K/3D @ 1080p BenQ. Over the years I have acquired over 550 3D movies. Disc and Digital files. But nowadays they are few and far in-between. Really sucks. Like you said, the bigger the better. I am at 150" on the BenQ 4K/3D Home Theater with 3,200 lumens so the DLP-Link glasses are nice and bright. But I fear the 3D home release days are over with. Really sad.

This is without a doubt one of the best reviews of the Kaleidescape system that I have ever viewed. It was also one of the most painful to watch. I encourage you to learn to edit your videos and make a great video into a fantastic one by streamlining the information. This video had 10 to 15 minutes of simply outstanding content, with all the research, calculations and analysis that you did, 10 minutes of decent review and the rest was repeating yourself or providing information largely necessary. Again, it was still fantastic video, but it could be simply amazing. With this video, you solidify my decision to avoid Kaleidescape. Yes, I would love to have one, simply because it’s the highest quality, audio, and video available to consumers for the home. But their model of forcing you to buy very expensive equipment to do so still has me resisting. You bought the piece that I certainly would, the Strato S. I hope that one day they will come out with a new version that is, in my opinion, the perfect solution. With the wide availability of high-speed Internet, 2.5 and 10 Gb LAN ports and network cards and solid-state drives, the player would not be the bottleneck that the old Strato S is. As a result, Kaleidescape owners could choose to simply stream purchased or rented content without having a need to store it on a server. This is the ideal scenario. I don’t want to physically HAVE to own a server to watch my content anymore. I used to want to own everything physically, but now I am content to just have access and stream it. It would also lower the price of belonging to the Kaleidescape ecosystem. That would save customers so much money in the kaleidoscope system and increase customer base.The market for servers would still remain for those who want a download in their personal digital library. Your analysis of Gone With The Wind movie, highlights the high true cost point. I hope Kaleidescape watches this and looks at these comments as they have been remiss to not offer a better streaming player. Keep up the fantastic work and I look forward to seeing more of your content.

Its a monopolistic power-grab... so they charge as much as they can with every possible excuse. Introduce an alternative and theyll crumble instantly.

Кирби такой же как Сквидвард. И неважно, ворчливые они или нет, но они очень добрые.

Can you connect the speakers with regular speaker wire? not RCA thanks

Nothing but mad stutter for me on the series X

They price it like this as they don’t want us as customers. They want to deal with the rich, people that will drop $25k to watch a movie are few and will pay whatever, zero issues, easy They are likely also running high end data centre drives not consumer drives like your buying, significantly more expensive and last far longer

don't compare itunes with kaleidescape....itunes movies are compressed, but kaleidescape movies are better than even the bluray disc!!!

i'm currently using the AWOL vision LTV 3500 Pro 3-D absolutely awesome I have pretty much all the 3-D movies that I've been produced including in the ones from overseas and the hard ones like predator with Arnold Schwarzenegger in 3-D but you mentioned 3-D movie theaters well there's a problem with that and that is it's not active 3-D. It's passivelacks all of the depth that active 3-D produces and that's why it didn't catch on to charge batteries in 3-D glasses of time effort and money. Also the lenses on active glasses scratch much easier than the passive 3-D glasses used in theaters so most people have never had a real 3-D experience anyone that comes to my house and watches a 3-D movie in active 3-D on my 150 inch screen is blown away. They said they've never seen anything like that movie theater and that's exactly why.,, OK finishing up your video. I'm confused. They do make three televisions so that is one thing that's incorrect. You do not need Epson glasses to watch active 3-D formats any active 3-D glasses will do you can buy four pairs for $79 at Amazon I use them myself they're quite effective, the most important thing about 3-D glasses is the size of the lens. Some of them are quite small. The three televisions I mentioned are just prohibitively expensive for their sizes.

Speaker size does not have to do with actually being large or small, if you set the speaker to LARGE, then they'll be considered full range speakers and all frequencies will attempt to play through them, this will cause distortion and excessive power draw typically. If you set them to small, then they will use a crossover. Example, set front and centers to SMALL, set crossover to 80hz, now anything below 80hz will play through your subwoofer instead of those speakers (there will be a roll off, not a hard stop). This will allow more power to be used for the mids and highs on the speakers, will prevent distortion, prevent over exertion and protect your speakers. It's weird wording but really has nothing to do with speaker size. 98% of the time, if you have a subwoofer, set all speakers to SMALL, and crossover to 80hz. Set subwoofer to LFE (default). You'd only set the speakers to large if they had an actual capable subwoofer, which if you're reading my comment and don't already know how to set it up, they probably don't.

I plan on deinterlacing and upscaling to 720 60p via AVISynth, but want to de-noise and sharpen in Topaz. How does Topaz handle 480i video from a laserdisc or vhs?

Wait you are saying TURN OFF passthrough to get ATMOS?

Kaleidescape is nothing but a gloria fied netflix you dont own the content you buy

Horrible accustics 😎 dude ...

Kaleidescape was the biggest audio improvement I made in my home theatre. It is much cleaner and more detailed. Kaleidescape is a product I said wasn’t necessary until I dipped my toe in the water (with used gear) now it’s almost all I use. The platform (web, mobile, onscreen), ease of use, and quality make it a great experience. Used hardware is usually readily available over the three more modern generations so is accessible and rumors are there may be a more entry level player on the horizon …

Great info. I'm also a dad that can't go out to theater much so having this one day at a lower cost is key. I have many discs but do we only get 1080 for disc to digital unless it's 4k? So if i have old school DVDs I'll get 480😂?

Spending this much for no Dolby Vision or HDR10* is insanity

Your speakers are really small for that room. That room could use pb4000’s or pb16’s and R700’s

Hello sir. do you prefer this one over xiaomi tv box 2nd gen ?. my most uses for plex and playback from external hardisk.. and i was looking for 32gb storage

With the amount of money they are charging I rather use that get movie from my physical collection with Usenet and have a backup at 2 different homes and online encrypted backup use zidoo at home and Emby or Plex on the road and call it a day I’m currently seating on 4 thousand plus movies and 85 percent of them are lossless video and audio get a madvr to upgrade tge visual to another level

Nice how to work that xternal disk
