We advise you to watch the television through the DP-558. Just use your TV as a picture display while the KiSS DP-558 will be at the center and host all the commands you need to change
channels. It will make it easier and quicker to use the recording functions.
- The Quality Chart figures are based on recording on an empty 80GB and 200GB Hard Disk.
- These figures will change if content is already present on the player’s built-in Hard Disk
- The KiSS DP-558 encodes movies in MPEG-2 format. (.vob files)
- Before recording, check the status of the Hard Disk and scheduled recording by pressing SETUP or MENU. The status appears on the top right hand corner of your screen.
Time Shifting makes it possible to pause live TV if you need to go away from it for any reason. It allows you to pause the running
program and start it again at any given moment. It works by saving the watched TV program on the DP-558's Hard Disk while the
television screen is on pause mode. For that you need to watch a TV program through the DP-558. Just press PLAY/PAUSE. The
TV will freeze, recording will start in the pre-set quality. Press the PLAY/PAUSE button again to resume watching. You will be
able to carry on watching your program while the DP-558 carries on recording. You can navigate through this on-going recording
by pressing the FAST FORWARD and REWIND buttons.
