When you’re ready to play, you’ll be rewarded with full bit-for-bit audio and video quality. And the fastest start: Kaleidescape movie players go from zero to glorious Blu-ray in just seconds. The Kaleidescape System also knows exactly where your feature film starts, so you’ll skip all those warnings, previews, menus, and ads.

The Covers View improves your experience as you browse your collection.
Protect Designed with your family in mind.
Take control of the titles your children can watch. The movies on your Kaleidescape System retain their MPAA rating categories (such as G, PG, and PG-13), so it’s easy to scan for appropriate films. Want to keep inappropriate material out of reach? By setting a rating limit on a room-by-room basis, you can prevent the Kaleidescape System from even displaying the movies you don’t want your kids to see. Want to know more about the potentially objectionable content in your movie collection? Kaleidescape attaches ratings and parental guidance from the experts at Common Sense Media, allowing you to make an informed choice about each movie you make available to your kids. Kaleidescape also empowers the youngest members of your family to choose what they want to see. A special child remote activates a user interface designed just for toddlers. At the press of any button on the remote, your little ones will see a text-free Covers View, showing only the movies you’ve selected for them in advance. Toddlers will be thrilled (and so will you) that they can play their movies all by themselves.
Continue navigating for additional information.
The newly shuffled order removes unrelated movies from your view and replaces them with similar and relevant movies.
Enhance The ultimate home theater.
Kaleidescape plays well with others, adding value to the rest of the quality gear in your home theater. When you press Play, the lights go down, the screen masking is set, the curtains open, and the audio track and subtitles are perfectly optimized—automatically. The Kaleidescape System communicates with all popular control systems in your home, so you can relax and enjoy the show. For a truly cinematic experience in theaters with 2.35 screens, Kaleidescape offers CinemaScape. This advanced video processing technology eliminates the disruptive mode switches and anamorphic lens movements typically associated with 2.35 projection in home theaters. With CinemaScape, you can enjoy each and every film in its original aspect ratio—no waiting, no interruptions, no hassles. It’s all part of the Kaleidescape Experience.
