Kaleidescape announces new Strato E Movie Player
More exciting news from Kaleidescape as the world’s best movie delivery platform announces the Strato E – a new player delivering lossless audio and reference-quality 4K video.
The Strato E movie player introduces a new entry-level 4K option for residential, marine and commercial cinema systems. It supports reference-quality 4K video output with SDR, HDR10 and Dolby Vision.
Like all Kaleidescape movie players, Strato E supports lossless multi-channel and spatial object-based audio, including Dolby Atmos and DTS:X.
Strato E further enhances the Kaleidescape movie player lineup. With the recent release of the Strato M as the reference 2K player, Strato E becomes the entry-level 4K model, while Strato V remains the flagship 4K player. Kaleidescape confirms that the Strato C continues to be the best option for compatibility with its legacy products.
“Our goal is to bring Kaleidescape to more customers by offering a range of movie players that fit the needs of a variety of projects,” says Tayloe Stansbury, chairman and CEO of Kaleidescape. “Strato E stays true to our commitment to performance and quality, with a lower cost of entry.”
The new player functions both as a standalone device and as part of a larger Kaleidescape system. On its own, it offers a single playback zone and includes an internal solid-state drive that can store around half a dozen movies. A movie can be downloaded in about ten minutes over gigabit Ethernet.
The streamlined interface is optimised for navigating smaller libraries and includes automatic offloading of watched content 48 hours after playback, making room for more titles. Purchased movies can be re-downloaded at any time. All Kaleidescape players can also be grouped with Terra Prime movie servers to expand movie storage.
Kaleidescape Strato players offer access to the Kaleidescape Movie Store – the world’s only digital collection featuring lossless audio and full reference video quality. The store offers thousands of 4K and HD titles for purchase or rental, including movies, TV series and concerts. As all movies are downloaded rather than streamed, there is no buffering or quality loss, the company stresses.
The Kaleidescape proposition has never been stronger, so we urge all installers to get in touch. Come for a demo, bring your customers and expand your delivery of the world’s best content platform.
