DVD Receiver KiSS DP-470
english français
Congratulations on your new KiSS DP-470
The many different functions provided by your new DVD receiver will be a source of pleasure to you for many years to come. Naturally, you can play and watch
DVD films with superb audio and visual quality. You can watch films in many other formats than DVD, such as MPEG-4, XviD, DivX. The audio features also give
you the option of playing music CDs, MP3 or Ogg Vorbis files. The DP-470 automatically recognises each format and can read CD-RW and DVD-RW alike. Your new
DP-470 also supports Picture CDs (jpg), which means that you can display your photos directly on the TV screen. This includes the pictures developed at the photo
shop and any photos you have scanned and saved on a CD yourself.
Note: Do not use the DVD Receiver until you have studied the quick setup menu. To do so, the DVD Receiver must be connected to a TV set.

advanced setup
You can always access the Setup menu and adjust the DP-470 to your specific requirements and hardware. When the KiSS logo appears on the
main screen, press the SETUP button on your remote control, and a menu will appear with the available options. The orange frame shows your
5
position on the menu. Use the arrow buttons to move the frame and select by pressing the ENTER button. The settings on some of the menus have
already been determined under Quick setup, but there are several settings available under Advanced setup as well.
Language Settings
The first menu is the Language settings menu. Here you select the language you wish to use for the menus, that will
appear on the screen, and your preferred language when playing a DVD film – for subtitles, speech and menus (they will
only be used if the film supports the language).

Video Settings

You can select the TV type (16:9 or 4:3 aspect ratio), video system (Pal or NTSC) and video output (Scart, S-Video,
Component Video or Component Progressive (Progressive Scan)). Composite video is available in all modes except in
progressive scan mode. Component Progressive delivers the best video quality, but be aware that if your TV does not
support Progressive Scan the picture (and menu) will disappear. You can reset this to the factory settings by pressing:
LOAD, INFO, 1, 2, 3 on the remote control.

Audio Settings

KiSS has tuned the product to give you the best possible sound experience (Loudness). Under acoustic setup, you can
neutralize these settings or enhance them further by selecting dynamic sound. Speaker size is used to make the right bass
management. When using small front speakers, try to place the subwoofer between the front speakers. Speakers level let
you change the level on the speakers individually. Select the channel you want to change and use the volume buttons to
adjust up and down.
Miscellaneous Settings
This display lets you set your preferred level of protection on the films. Some films are divided into levels, so that parents
can prevent their children from seeing a specific type of film. In the next menu item, you create a password that is
required for editing this setup*. The light in the DVD Receiver's display can be modified from max to normal to min or off.
All settings can be reset in the "Restore settings" menu, and the Quick setup can be re-initiated from the last menu.
*If you wish to modify this setup later on, you must re-enter the password.
Note: Progressive scan only works on Component video output. This connection gives the best video quality. Only select Component Progressive if your TV
supports it. To leave a menu, press the left arrow on the remote control.

The DVD Player supports the following media: DVD Video, DivX, XviD, ISO MPEG-4, Audio CD, MP3, Ogg Vorbis and JPG.
DVD Menu
If you have adjusted your DVD Receiver according to the instructions above, you can now insert a DVD into your DVD
Receiver. A moment later, the DVD menu will appear. Use the arrow buttons to navigate in the menu and start the film.
Note: As this menu is part of the DVD itself, it will vary from one DVD to another.
When you insert an audio CD or a disc with MP3 or Ogg Vorbis files, the player will automatically recognise the format
and start playing it. You can use next/previous track or you can use the menu to navigate through the file structure, and
select the song you want to hear by pressing enter.

DivX, XviD and MPEG-4

The DP-470 recognises the format and automatically starts playing the CD when you insert it into the drive. Use the
counter in the display to help you to see where you are in the film. You have access to the usual playback options, such
as stop, pause, go to next, time search, etc.
The DP-470 can show photos on your TV. The photos must be stored in JPEG format on a Disc. The player will
automatically recognise the files, and start showing them as a slide show. In the menu you can navigate to find a
specific photo, and start the slide show from here by pressing enter.
