Highlights & Key Technologies

Reference 4K Video
Strato C is a 4K Ultra HD movie player supporting 4K Ultra HD, SDR, and HDR10 formats, with support for high-bit-rate 4K Ultra HD movies in 10-bit color, with and without high dynamic range, and movies that meet or exceed the quality available on Blu-ray Disc and DVD.

Lossless Audio
Strato movie players provide lossless audio, maximizing sound quality with a range of downstream components. Strato supports multichannel and spatial audio codecs including Dolby Atmos, Dolby TrueHD, DTS:X, and DTS-HD Master Audio. A separate HDMI 1.4 audio-only output is provided on the DIGITAL AUDIO connector, in addition to the combined HDMI 2.0a video-and-audio output on the VIDEO connector.

Requires a Server
Strato C has no internal storage; it accesses content stored on a Terra or a Strato with internal storage when connected via network. Add more players for whole-house entertainment.
