I have owned the Kiss DP-600 player since the day it came out. So far it has not failed to play a media type thrown at it. Unfortunatly Kiss have only released a few firmware updates. The player is still full of Bugs.
For example - *a Green screen when the player turns on
Difficulty in Upgrading and Downgrading Firmware
HDMI issues still (my HDMI decided it would stop working)
Access speeds from USB port to an External usb HDD make high definition content on the hard disk pretty much unplayable.
Power off feature doesnt always switch to full standby more like a hibernate mote
Dispite a couple of firmware updates to do not think Kiss have taken their time with this product. In my opinion this is now very over priced for its age. And looking around you can buy HD media player which is more up to date than the Kiss 600.
At one stage my kiss player failed to load for about a month i tried to downgrade the firmware to reset it did this about 20-30 times then it came back to life.
On the plus side it has played all the media i have - Xvid, Divx, Avi , Mpeg's , Windows media Files. Plays DVD's fine. I still use it today with all the series i have on my hard disk drive - Lost Prison break etc. I use a 200gb external hard drive on this and it plays Standard def files a treat. I would not recommend this for HD content. And the online content features are pointless and i see no point for them.
To sum this up due to its age and price i would not reccommend the KISS DP-600 anymore. You might be able to pick a bargain on Ebay though.
