Kissd kissdx

Abstract

This article explains how to get kissd or kissdx running on the Linkstation/Terastation/Kurobox. There are only slight differences in the procedure...both need the same libs (libdvdread,libdvdcss), only the source of the apps itself is the difference.

kissd is a replacement for the PCLink software for Kiss Network DVD Players.
kissdx is an enhanced version that is even capable of handling dvd-images.

If you need to install the libs + kissd(x) from source you need the development tools installed.
