Not my purchased library. Same as the TV UI. Under ready to play it shows downloaded, and store (which should be my library as there is an entire movie store). Unusable. ### 5/5 — Words cannot describe... *2015-10-11* Believe me, if you can afford a Premium System, look no more...5 Stars, Flawless... Go see this system in person. ### 4/5 — Great app, needs streaming option! *2012-09-12* This app is a fantastic interface for our Kaleidescape system. The only improvement would be an option to stream movies from our system onto the iPad, much like you can through the HBO Go app even when out of our home. I would pay for that app, so please make it happen! ### 3/5 — iPad 3 connection problem *2012-04-03* I can happily get this app to work on my iPad 2 but it will not connect on my iPad 3. Have you made any updates to the iPad wifi since the new version was released. ### 5/5 — Excellent companion app *2012-01-21* This app is a great companion to the Kaleidescape system. It is wonderful to be able to browse my collection on the iPad, and be able to control music playback without using the TV or control panel. ### 4/5 — Nice App But…….. *2012-01-17* The wait is over and the App download smoothly with no problems. One thing I would like to see the next SW update is the ability to preview movies and music on the iPad before you present it on the screen. other then that request the app is nicely presented. ### 5/5 — Olive AV London *2012-01-16* This is a great App which has been long awaited in the industry. You can now control the worlds best movie server all on your iPad. Not got a Kaleidescape or need help setting up? www.olive-av.co.uk ### 4/5 — KSCAPE!!!! *2012-01-15* The wait is over! It's finally here! Very smooth integration to the KSCAPE os. There is not much missing in version 1.0 but I have to wonder if we will get a live stream option for movies? ## Frequently asked questions about Kaleidescape Second Screen ### What is Kaleidescape Second Screen used for?
