KiSS DP-470 DVD/DiVX player/AV receiver - £61.

This is on a weekend only deal at Scan on the Today Only section. Its a cracking price for a piece of kit that plays all your DVD's, CD's and DiVX files - on top of that it is a full AV Receiver with full DTS and 5.1 output and has FM/AM radio to boot. Just connect up a 5.1 speaker system and you have a full home thatre setup for very little cash. It ranges in price from £150 to £200+ elsewhere.

    Wouldn't touch Kiss Players with a barge pole. Had a DP-1000 followed by a DP-1504. Suffered Kiss with buggy firmware updates and playback problems for 2 years. Bought a £20 Targa DivX player and realised just how rubbish and overpriced KiSS players were. :confused:

    I agree I paid a good sum of money for my Kiss DP-1000, it lasted just 12 months and then would not play discs!!! Stay away from KISS.....very overrated!

    thnx will stay away but tell us what is good to buy.

    My cello 815 from sainsbury is getting old and the display is going so I need a nice dvd player that plays DIVXS files so what is best that has some support as cello has 0.0% support.

    I have a DP-1000 which does not do Qpel.
    Does this one do Qpel?
    Anyone tried the multi-region hack on the scan site?

    Does the Targa one (is this the Lidl £19.99 one!) do Qpel. My local Lidl sold out :( The Lidl one came with a 3 year warantee. The Dp-1000 buttons no longer work after the latest firmware I have to use the remote to open and close the unit. Also crashes with some movies and the DP-1000 needs a cold restart.

    The Targa DP-5100x does Qpel and almost everything else I throw at it (I would say about 95% success) and is easily multi-regioned. The KISS used to refuse to play around 50% of my DivX movies and would lock up quite regulary (along with other little anoyances).
