The Kaleidescape SystemThe Ultimate Entertainment Experience
Reclaim precious cabinet
and shelf space throughout
your home once your DVDs
and CDs are loaded into
your Kaleidescape System.
The Kaleidescape System
Presenting the Kaleidescape System
It’s been called the Best of the Best by Robb Report. Others have described it as a one-of-a-kind entertainment experience. It’s been identifi ed as one of the hottest trends in home entertainment. It’s the Kaleidescape System–the award-winning entertainment server that delivers movie and music experiences that are more exciting and compelling than ever before.
The Kaleidescape System will simplify the way you collect, manage and enjoy your movies and music. You’ll say goodbye to the clutter of all those DVDs and CDs, and to the frustration of having to organize them over and over. You will be able to reclaim the valuable space used to store all those discs because your DVDs, CDs, and home movies will be readily accessible on your Kaleidescape System’s fail-safe hard disks.
The Kaleidescape System can deliver movies and music instantly to any room. And because the Kaleidescape Interface is well-designed, simple and intuitive, your family and guests can enjoy your movies and music at any time.

Elegant and Compelling
The extraordinary Kaleidescape Interface is simply the best. It provides the easiest and most entertaining way for you to re-connect with your treasured movies and music.
To add a movie or album, simply place the disc into the DVD reader in a Kaleidescape Movie Player or Music Player, and its contents will be imported and cataloged automatically. Using Kaleidescape’s exclusive Movie and Music Guide Services, your Kaleidescape System obtains information about each item, 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 Kaleidescape System, you never have to touch them again.
As your collection 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, album or song you own. Instantly.

Command Performance
Once your collection has been imported into your Kaleidescape System, the fi rst 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. Kaleidescape’s Movie Guide Service provides patent-pending video bookmarks so you can instantly 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 collage.
In the mood for some music? A little Soft Rock or Traditional Country, or perhaps some Norah Jones. Just select the genre or the artist and press PLAY. You can also select the albums or 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 Service.
The Kaleidescape experience comes without compromises. 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.

Even small children enjoy fi nding 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, from manufacturers like Crestron and AMX, 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 controls so you can rest assured that your children are not watching inappropriate movies.
