To obtain High Definition Playback of High Definition Content, we recommend you to connect your High Definition Display with an HDMI Cable. HDMI supports

Standard, Enhanced, or High-Definition video, plus Multi-Channel Digital Audio in a single cable. Many sources of High Definition Video (as well as DVD upscaling

require that the display product supports HDCP, which is an encryption format used on HDMI and DVI-D signals. To find out if your display device supports HDCP,

please consult its manual. If your television does not support HDMI but has a DVI-input, a DVI to HDMI converter can be purchased separately.

If you do NOT own a High Definition Display, we recommend connecting your player to your television using the SCART cable that comes with your player. The SCART cable is

the thickest cable with the large connectors in the ends. The SCART cable covers various analog video formats up to RGB quality, and analog Stereo audio. Connect one end

of the SCART cable to “SCART OUT” on your player. Connect the other end to the SCART input on your television. Connect the power cable to the power connector.

If your television does not have an HDMI or SCART connector, you will have to connect both audio and video with separate cables as follows:

For connecting video, you have the following options:

• VIDEO (Composite Video)

• S-VIDEO (or “Super-VHS”, provides a better quality than VIDEO)

• COMPONENT VIDEO (provides an even better quality than the above)

After connecting the video, you will have to connect the audio. You can connect the audio to either the television or your Hi-Fi Stereo or Audio/Video Surround System. The

DP-600 outputs both analog and digital audio. Analog stereo audio is the most common format, and is supported by, in practice, all devices. For Surround setup, Digital Audio

Output is recommended as connection to all Surround Amplifiers and A/V-Receivers.

For connecting the audio, you have the following options:

• Connect ANALOG AUDIO OUT to your television using phono (RCA) jacks

• Connect ANALOG AUDIO OUT to your HiFi stereo using phono (RCA) jacks

• Connect COAXIAL or OPTICAL digital audio output to your Surround Amplifier or A/V-Receiver

Connecting your Player

Connecting your KiSS DP-600 DVD & Media Player to your TV can be done using any of the cables below.

(Only one cable can be connected at a time)

Video connection

a. RGB via SCART

b. HDMI (the cable is an extra accessory)

c. Component RCA (the cable is an extra accessory)

c. Composite via SCART

d. Composite Video

e. S-Video (the cable is an extra accessory)

Ethernet Network using a direct connection to the Computer

Having physically set up your player, you will need to conﬁ gure your wireless network in the player Setup menu to be able to communicate with the rest of your network. To do

this, please press the SETUP button to enter the Setup menu, select the network tab in the menu and change the settings according to the procedure described below:

Network Interface: Select “Wireless” from this menu to acknowledge that you would like to use a wireless network.

Wireless Authentication: The Wireless Authentication menu item allows you to set the type of encryption used on your wireless network. Encryption is used to keep data

exchange between your player and the rest of your network scrambled. This is done in order to protect you from exposing of personal or sensitive information to other wireless

users in the vicinity. For the player to be able to communicate with your wireless network, the encryption will need to be set to exactly the same in the player as on the wire-

less router or access point you will be connecting to. If the wireless router/access point is running with no encryption, your player should be set accordingly. However, KiSS

recommends that you always use encryption on your wireless network, so if possible please have your router set to WEP encryption and enable WEP encryption on your player

accordingly. If you do not know what type of encryption is enabled (if any) in your wireless router/access point, please refer to its manual on how to see or set it up.

Encryption Key: If you are running an encrypted wireless network, all devices on your network will need to share the same encryption key in order for them to communicate.

Please enter this menu item to bring up the on-screen keyboard where you will be able to enter the key you are currently using in your wireless router/access point. If you do

not know which encryption key is used on your wireless router/access point, please refer to its manual for information on how to see it or set it up.

Now that you have connected your player to the other devices, you can begin setup. First, we recommend that you turn on your television before turning on your KiSS Player.

This way, the video channel you have chosen will appear on your television screen automatically (SCART or HDMI). Turning on your KiSS Player before your television, however,

has no negative effect on the use or operation of your player. In this case, you would simply have to use your TV remote to search for the video channel you want your player

set to, instead of it appearing automatically.

KiSS Online

This menu section deals with the online capabilities and features of the DP-600. Accessing KiSS Online

or KML pages requires the player to have Internet access through either a wired or wireless network. For

more information about connecting the player to a network, see the “Connecting your player to a network”

section of this User Guide. More information about each individual online application can be obtained in the

dedicated “KiSS Online” section.

KiSS Online: This menu option gives you access to the KiSS Online portal, where you will have direct access

to a portfolio of online applications. Currently the portal features KiSS TV Guide - an electronic program

guide, WebRadio – a repository containing thousands of internet-based radio channels, weather information,

a stock viewer and a handful of interactive board games.

My KML page: This menu item brings you directly to your personally specified KML page. See next paragraph

for information on how to add one. KML stands for KiSS Media Language and is essentially a language for

presenting online content like text, images and video in a proper way on a TV screen, much like websites do

on a computer monitor. Developing KML pages require some basic programming skills but is fairly simple to

understand. Information on how to develop your own KML pages can be found in the support section of our

website at www.kiss-technology.com/support.

Customize "My KML" Page: Entering this menu item allows you to define an IP address pointing to a KML

page of your choice. KiSS Networked Entertainment does not maintain or keep track of third party pages.

Therefore we do not currently provide a repository of available pages. Instead we recommend doing an

Internet search. Please note that pages are provided “as is” by third party developers and are in no shape or

form affiliated with KiSS Networked Entertainment.

Reveal Player ID: Enter this menu item to reveal your Player ID. A player ID is your player’s unique name and

is used to access KiSS Online features as well as KiSS web services. The Player ID is used for authentication

and storing your unique preferences only, and you will almost never be asked to enter this anywhere. KiSS

would like to advise you NOT to give this out to anyone except when asked for login on KiSS web services or

by request from KiSS Customer Service in the resolving of specific issues.

This menu section contains options for browsing and playing files residing on an USB storage device connected to

the player. In order to use them, please connect an USB storage device (hard drive, USB memory dongle or other)

in these formats will in many cases not look as good as DVD material since these formats were originally

created for higher compression of video and audio. The advantage of this is that you are able to fit more

video on a disc, but at a slight quality loss. Other restrictions also apply, as some of them will not support

interactive menus, subtitles, multiple soundtracks and spoken languages.

Webradio is an application that enables you to browse and choose between thousands of internet-based

streaming radio stations, allowing you to listen to exactly the kind of music you prefer. The Webradio front

page provides you with two different ways of browsing:

Music Genres: Enter this menu item to browse by musical genre. The list is broken up into a number

of different main categories and subcategories to make finding what you wish to listen to easier. Usage

example: If you wish to listen to disco, simply enter the “Pop/Rock” category and select “Disco”. In the disco

category you will be presented with disco related stations. Page information in the top right corner will inform

you of how many pages of channels there are. Press the NEXT CHAPTER or PREVIOUS CHAPTER buttons on

your remote to browse additional pages. Use the BACK button to go back to previous sections.

World Radio: Enter this menu item to browse by geography. Usage example: If you wish to listen to radio

stations from Belgium, enter “Europe”, then select “Belgium” for a list of radio channels streamed from there.

Page information in the top right corner will inform you of how many pages of stations there are. Press the

NEXT CHAPTER or PREVIOUS CHAPTER buttons on your remote to browse additional pages.

Listening: Once a station is selected, the music will commence playing after a few seconds depending on

the speed of your Internet connection. A playback screen will present you with current information about

what song the station is playing, its audio quality (measured in kilobytes per second) and how many listeners

are currently tuned in to the station.

Adding a station to your favorites: Whenever you find a station that you like, you can add the station to

your personal favorites list. Simply enter the station you wish to add and press “Add to favorites”. Adding

stations to your favorites list saves you the trouble of looking for it at a later time. To remove a station

from your favorites, simply enter the particular station and press “Remove from favorites” on the playback

information screen.

Favorites list: You can always access your favourites list either in the top of the screen or in the right hand

menu on the front page by pressing the “Favorites” button. From here you can simply pick any one of the

stations you have added to play it at your convenience.

Settings: Accessible from the Webradio main page only is the “Settings” page. Pressing it will enable you to

set a minimum quality criteria for the stations displayed while browsing. Usage example: If you would like to

avoid listening to radio stations streamed in a quality below 80 Kbps, please select “80 Kbit or better”. You

can always go back and redefine your criteria at any time.

TV Guide

The KiSS TV Guide is an online Electronic Program Guide (EPG) that enables you to browse information on

current and upcoming TV programs. To use it to browse program information on your available TV stations,

you will need to add some stations first.

Adding stations

1. From the TV Guide main screen, select “Add a favorite” from the “Favorite stations” menu bar. You will

now be presented with a list of countries. Select yours. For additional countries, press the NEXT CHAPTER or

PREVIOUS CHAPTER buttons on your remote control.

2. After selecting your country you will be presented with a list of available channels for your country. Select

a channel available to you.

3. Select “Add favorite” from the bottom of the screen that comes up.

Repeat steps 2 and 3 for adding additional stations. Stars will appear next to the stations you have added to

the list so you do not have to remember which ones you have added. Press BACK to return to the main screen

when you are done adding stations.

THE FAVORITE STATIONS BAR

What’s on now?: Once you have added some stations to your favorites you are ready to browse the TV

program. Press “What’s on now?” from the “Favorite stations” bar to get a full view of what is showing on

your stations now and in the next two hours. If you have added more stations than we are able to show on

screen, press the arrows in either the top or bottom of the left hand stations list.

As a default the grid view will show you two hours of programming at a time. The vertical white line on the

screen indicates the time right now. To reduce the screen to a one-hour view, just press the ZOOM button

on your remote. Pressing it again will return the screen to two-hour view. To browse programs later in the

day, press the NEXT CHAPTER button on the remote. To see programs earlier in the day, use the PREVIOUS

CHAPTER button.

the directional buttons on your remote, then press OK on the item you would like to learn more about. You

will be able to see date, time of broadcast, duration, and - depending on the information available - episode

number and a description. If what you have selected is a movie (movies show up as purple blocks in the grid

view), you will be able to do an IMDb (Internet Movie Database) search on the particular movie for more

information. To do this, simply press the IMDb button in the bottom of the screen.

What’s on?: The purpose of the “What’s on?” screen is to give you an overview of what is showing on your

favorite stations on different times of the day or up to six days ahead. Want to know what is showing tonight?

Just press “Evening” and you will be shown everything showing on your stations from 8 p.m.

Favorites: Enter Favorites to see a list of the stations you have added. If you are unhappy with the order

in which your stations are listed, just use the left or right navigational buttons on your remote to move a

selected item up or down the list.

Press either one of the items on the list to enter the “What’s on?” screen for that particular station. Should

you choose to remove the station from your favorites, simply select “Delete favorite” from this screen.

The Favorite shows bar: Before you are able to browse information on your favorite shows in this bar, you

will first need to add some to your favorites.

Adding favorite shows: There are two ways of adding favorite shows: Searching and browsing.

If you would like to search for a show to add to your favorites, please enter “Add a favorite” from the “favorite

shows” bar. This brings up a search menu from where you are able to enter either part or the entire name of

the show you wish to search for. Once you find what you are searching for, press the name of the show you

wish to add from the results screen. Pressing a show brings up all instances of the show for this week on

the channel. From here you can either press “Add for this channel” to add this as a favorite for this specific

channel or press “Add for all channels” if you would like the show to be added as a favorite regardless of

which channel it is on.

If you would rather like to add shows to your favorites by browsing for them in the grid view, this is also

possible. Just enter the grid by either selecting “What’s on now?” or “What’s on?” from the “Favorite

stations” bar and browse your way to the show you wish to add. Once you have found it, enter it and press

the “When is it on?” button in the bottom of the screen. Select an instance of the show on the results screen

and press either “Add for this channel” to add this as a favorite for this specific channel or press “Add for all

channels” if you would like the show to be added as a favorite regardless of which channel it is on.

Favorite shows will turn up in an orange color on the program grid.
