			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Recently one of my colleagues experiences some problem with his Kiss player. It was and still is not possible to turn it on and in the display it only writes &#8220;KISS DVD&#8221;.</p>
<p>I had a similar problem for about a year ago &#8211; and I found a solution. The Kiss player is not dead <img src='http://techblog.byllemos.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':-)' class='wp-smiley' />  it is &#8220;only&#8221; the Power Supply (PSU) that is &#8220;broken&#8221;.<br />
<span id="more-61"></span><br />
In the building days Kiss has under estimated the capacitors (ex. used 10V instead of 16V), and therefore it is often those that are broken, when having the mentioned error. All you have to do is to replace the effected capacitors.</p>
<p>Often it is the capacitors marked as C15, C19 and C20. Just switch them to some new ones and if you are lucky and nothing else is wrong your Kiss is working again <img src='http://techblog.byllemos.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':-)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>It is not always enough just to replace C15, C19 and C21. Sometimes you also have to replace C18, C20 and C23.</p>
<p>More detailed information can be found a the <a title="MPC Clubs Wiki - Kiss 558" href="http://www.mpcclub.com/wiki/index.php/Psu" target="_blank">MPC Clubs Wiki</a></p>
<p>When buying new capacitors, then remember that in this case, higher voltages (16V instead of 10V) are very good. They will live longer.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>At first I thought that I have bought a too new model, because I couldn&#8217;t find a bootstrap that fits the DS207+ (only one for the DS107). But finally I found a bootstrap that works &#8211; so YES it is possible to use the Synology DS207+ as a Kissdx server <img src='http://techblog.byllemos.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':-)' class='wp-smiley' /><br />
<span id="more-47"></span><br />
Before you can install the bootstrap, you have to enable Telnet. This is done by installing a patch, which automatically enables Telnet. The <a href="http://www.synology.com/enu/support/releaseNote/telnet.php" title="Telnet Patch" target="_blank">patch</a> and install directions can be found at <a href="http://www.synology.com/enu/support/releaseNote/telnet.php" title="Synology's" target="_blank">Synology&#8217;s</a>.</p>
<p>Next you have to download the bootstrap and install it. The bootstrap can be found here:</p>
<blockquote><p> <a href="http://www.maartendamen.com/synoware/ds_armmarvell-bootstrap_1.0.xsh" title="Synology DS 207+ bootstrap">http://www.maartendamen.com/synoware/ds_armmarvell-bootstrap_1.0.xsh</a></p></blockquote>
<p>The downloaded bootstrap has to be placed somewhere on your NAS server. Remember where you placed it, because you have to access it later through Telnet <img src='http://techblog.byllemos.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif' alt=';-)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>Now that you got the bootstrap you are ready to install it.  This is done by accessing you NAS through Telnet.</p>
<blockquote><p>Go into dos write telnet  your-nas-ip ex. telnet 192.168.1.70</p></blockquote>
<blockquote><p>As login use root and you password.</p></blockquote>
<p>At this point you are on the NAS server and the next step is to find the bootstrap file. Typically you would find it somewhere near the /volume1/files.</p>
<blockquote><p>Change to the directory by using the cd command. Ex. cd /volume1/files</p></blockquote>
<p>And then install the bootstrap by executing:</p>
<blockquote><p>sh ds_armmarvell-bootstrap_1.0.xsh</p></blockquote>
<p>Now we have the bootstrap installed and are ready to install the kissdx server. This is done by using the IPKG functionality.</p>
<p>First start by getting the newest list of possibilities by executing:</p>
<blockquote><p>ipkg update</p></blockquote>
<p>and if you are lucky kissdx will be on that list, and can be installed by executing:</p>
<blockquote><p>ipkg install kissdx</p></blockquote>
<p>If kissdx is not on the list you can install it by executing:</p>
<blockquote><p>ipkg install http://ipkg.nslu2-linux.org/feeds/optware/syno-x07/cross/uns table/kissdx_0.13-10a-2_arm.ipk</p></blockquote>
<p>Now kissdx is installed. Before starting the use of kissdx, you have to change some settings. These can be found in the kissdx.conf file which is placed in the /volume1/opt/etc/kissdx.conf directory.</p>
<blockquote><p>cd /volume1/opt/etc/kissdx.conf</p>
<p>vi /volume1/opt/etc/kissdx.conf (edit the file with a vi editor)</p></blockquote>
<p>Look for the settings for audio, video and picture and adapt them to your directories.</p>
<blockquote><p># paths for the media files<br />
audiopath   = /volume1/your_music_folder<br />
videopath   = /volume1/your_movie_folder<br />
picturepath = /volume1/your_picture_folder</p></blockquote>
<p>When you are finished changing the file, simply save it and reboot your Synology. Kissdx is now running as a process on the server.</p>
<p>You can check that Kissdx is running by performing a ps command.</p>
<blockquote><p>ps x | grep kissdx</p></blockquote>
<p>Next thing to do &#8211; is to go to your Kiss, and point it to your NAS in the PC-Link setup.</p>
