KiSS Technology has announced a new model of their DivX player. Previously we already reported about the DP-450 DVD player and today we can read in a press release that KiSS has announced their DP-500 DVD player.
This player of course also has support for DivX but it will also be the first player to offer an Ethernet connection. With this connection it will be possible for instance to download files from a computer and watch movies:
The DP500 introduces a series of new features including playback of videos encoded in DivX versions 4 and 5, and a new Ethernet 10/100 connection. The Ethernet connection will soon be used for a range of new functions, including Internet radio and PC connectivity for music files, pictures and video material. |
"Our new progressive Scan DP500 DVD player with Ethernet and DivX support is the second product in four months to set the trend with first-to-market features. The Ethernet 10/100 port will give the user new possibilities for entertainment in front of a TV. Users will be able to download files from the PC and watch movies, listen to hours of recorded music, share family pictures, or jump on the Internet and listen to Internet radio stations," said Bo Lustrup, marketing manager, KiSS Technology.
Besides support for DivX and Ethernet the DP-500 player will also support CD/MP3, CD-RW, SVCD, VCD and DVD-RW playback. Read the full press release here. The KiSS Technology homepage can be found here.
