Now Playing
Add a movie or an album by placing the disc in a Kaleidescape Player, and it is automatically cataloged. Using Kaleidescape’s exclusive Movie and Music Guide, your Kaleidescape System obtains information about each title, including high-resolution cover art, a synopsis or review, artist details, year of release, running time, and other information. After importing your DVDs and CDs into your System, you never have to touch them again. As your library grows, storage can be added by inserting more Disk Cartridges or by adding more Kaleidescape Servers to provide all the capacity you need. Even if you have thousands of DVDs, CDs and home movies, the Kaleidescape System lets you effortlessly select and enjoy any movie, television show, album or song you own.
Command Performance Once your collection has been imported into your Kaleidescape System, the first thing you’ll notice is that everything happens immediately. No searching for DVDs or CDs, no fumbling with cases. No waiting for a mechanical changer. As you browse, your movies and albums appear onscreen – instantly. Once you’ve made your selection, you simply press PLAY, sit back and enjoy. When you play a movie, there are no DVD menus, no trailers, no advertisements. Start a movie, jump to an episode of a television series, or play a favorite scene. You can personalize your viewing experience by creating your own favorite scenes, and even linking them together to create a video montage.

In the mood for some music? A little soft rock or traditional country, or perhaps some Louis Armstrong. Just select the genre or the artist and press PLAY. You can also select the albums and songs you wish to hear, and quickly create your own Mix Album. While you’re listening, you can explore the reviews of albums and artists provided by Kaleidescape’s Music Guide. The Kaleidescape Experience comes without compromise. All of your content is imported into your Kaleidescape System at the highest quality possible, with no compression, so your viewing and listening experience is exactly as the artists intended.
In Control The Kaleidescape System is compatible with your favorite control system. Whether you prefer a sophisticated touch screen, a simple IR remote, or a web-enabled device, the award-winning Kaleidescape System allows you to effortlessly manage and enjoy your entertainment collection. Even young children enjoy finding and starting their own movies and music.
The Kaleidescape System also provides a number of automation cues that can be used by advanced control systems to automatically control lighting, set screen masking, move curtains, and make all the audio and video playback choices to optimize your entertainment experience. It’s like having your very own projectionist! We even provide parental control so you can rest assured that your children are not exposed to inappropriate movies.
In addition to the Kaleidescape remote, Kaleidescape provides the tools needed to easily control your Kaleidescape System using third-party touch panels.
