Kaleidescape KEAOS 3.7 Operating System

 

Kaleidescape announces version 3.7 of the Kaleidescape Entertainment Appliance Operating System (KEAOS).

KEAOS 3.7 includes the following new features:

• Multi-channel Audio Over an HDMI™ Connection
  Dolby Digital and DTS multi-channel audio can now be sent over an HDMI connection. In versions prior to KEAOS 3.7, only decoded two-channel Dolby Digital audio was sent, and DTS audio was not sent at all. KEAOS 3.7 will not change the behavior of existing Movie Players, but HDMI multi-channel audio can be enabled in the Installer Web Utility at http://my-kaleidescape/installer/components.html (or http://my-kaleidescape.local/installer/components.html on a Mac). New 1080p Movie Players will ship with HDMI multi-channel audio enabled.
• Play Multiple Genres or Play Multiple Artists
  When selecting music, you can now play multiple genres or play multiple artists. In versions prior to KEAOS 3.7, only a single genre or a single artist could be added to the Now Playing list.
• Replication (beta)
  Replication enables you to copy content from a Server to a System. It is useful for moving content from a Server before retiring or replacing it, and for importing the same content to Systems belonging to a single owner. To enable the replication feature you must visit the Kaleidescape Extranet and register on the replication beta test webpage.

 

Over the next 30 days, KEAOS 3.7 will be installed automatically via the Internet. To determine the KEAOS version running on your System, view the System Summary tab on the onscreen display (OSD), or view the System Status area on the Web Utility at http://my-kaleidescape/ (or http://my-kaleidescape.local/ on a Mac).
