@Magnetar Concierge Just for your information. I noticed the issue still occurs with some CD's but now only on track 1 and when I restart the CD it plays as it should, without clipping. Maybe that...

@Tiago Soares no prob! The signal is 4:4:4 but what's inside aka the container is 4:2:0 color space information. Make sure you set either 10bit or 12bit too hdr10 is 10bit sdr is 8bit and I think d...
@Marco Reyes Thanks Marco! In the meanwhile I read in the FAQs section of the Magnetar website the current firmware of magnetar prioritizes color space, so it defaults to 444. Maybe they didn...
All blu rays are mastered at 4:2:0 so 4:2:2 is still an upsample. If you play a file that's 4:4:4 that's when the actual data would be there for it. There's less bandwidth at 4:2:2 vs 4:4:4 that's ...
Having issues reading jackie chans police story 2 Criterion édition. Police Story 1 reads well but disc 2 takes a long time to read to ultimately state it's an unknown disc. The disc is in p...
Daniel You have a local settings issue as the Magnetar has no issues sending DTS bitstream Audio from a DVD-Audio disc to an AVR. It is no different than DTS bitstream audio on a DVD. The player p...
MY Magnetar 800 won't play DTS audio on DVD-Audio discs. It will play Dolby 5.1. It will play DTS audio on blu-ray discs. The Magnetar is set to Bitstream and I have no problems with other formats ...
While reading the manual I understood the default color space was YCC 422. But when I connect the Magnetar to a LG C4 it defaults to YCC 444. I understand the difference between these 2 is wh...
When playing 4K blu rays with DV ( warner discs ), if I pop-up the menu mid scene the screen gets slightly dimmer and it doesn’t get brighter again, unless I skip to the next scene. On other ...
@Esteban Medaglia Completely!
I do hope the new models fix this. It is my main gripe with these players. I love the rest. But I was really hoping for an entry-level model without any audio bells and whistles under $1K. I...
Perhaps the new MKII will fix that. I just don't see myself buying a new one in the near future for that price.
Same here. Both of my 800's are *extremely* noisy with 75% of UHD discs. Some discs sound positively loud, almost like an espresso machine. My Oppo 203's are whisper quiet in comparison. I hope thi...
No reply on the above? It'd be great if this could be addressed on the new, MKII model.
With some 4K movies the disc drive gets very noisy for the first 10 mins of the movie and again at around 75% of the duration of the movie. It is probably around 50% of the 4K movies I have. Normal...
can anyone answer this as "no" (does not support) or "yes" (does support)?
By going to SETTINGS/OPTIONS/LOAD DEFAULTS and also turning the physical switch off and back on again, they issue was solved. Seemed like the firmware update did not "stick" until the aforemention...
@Pierre Martinez perfect.
@Magnetar Concierge Thanks. I have mentioned the HDMI case as well in the support ticket.
@Pierre Martinez Hi Pierre, if you just opened the ticket, allow them reasonable time to respond to you. Thanks
