Linksys Kiss DP-1600

Some more playing with the linksys.

It is not so bad. Only had problems with a few files to play. HD stuff I have will not play without converting, something I will not do. But the solution for this can be media servers like Tversity, that can convert on the file. Will test this later on. But in general I like it. The dvd player is good.

You also find some media sharing software like freekiss on internet the make sharing of the files easier then the default software of Linksys. I also did some test with wireshark to see how the linksys is communicating with the software and it is looking easy. So later on I will try to create some thing to do the sharing myself. When it is done, or started, I will publish the software some where.

The negative point about the linksys is support of the linksys it self. This is very poor. No new firmware sins a will now. And there are still a few bug to solve. Also missing a timer on the player.
