I have looked everywhere on the net and I just cant get it. I know many have tried and both failed and succeeded.

Here is what I do know

1. You need this convert file http://www.dfwcorvettes.com/DNX8120Install5.asp

2. Best pic size is around 480 x 234

3. File name for pic cannot have spaces.

4. To enter setup Mode, Press and hold FNC & EJECT keys, then press RESET Key.
* Release reset key, and hold FNC & EJECT Key until illumination activates.
* Connect the USB Thumb drive containing image file and convert program.
All files must be in the root directory.
* There is no extension on the convert program.
* If you want to change the opening image to your own image (i.e., company
logo), Press OEM Image.
* The OEM Image will be grayed out till files are seen on USB
device.
* If you want to put original KENWOOD opening back, press KENWOOD image.
* Select the image you want to use.
* When the image is loaded, select Enter Your new opening will remain for
few seconds and then switch to the Source Select menu.



Stuff I dont get

1. How do you know if a file is in the "Root" on the the thumb drive

2. How do you use the convert file? Its on the screen above the pic but does just being on the drive make it work?

3. What is the meaning of life?



I get the sequence, see the pic, save the pic and then BAM...Kenwood screen is back. Now Im using an ice pick to hold down the reset button....there is a possibly I will stab the radio please help.

 

Do you know where i can find a Z picture to put it in the background?

 

this post on avsforum.com is what i used to change the startup screen on my dnx7120. post is specific to the dnx8120. read through it. HTH.

I found the attached one in the DNX7120 thread here a while back.

 

This bump makes me remember how pissed I was that I could not change the start up screen. Then I found out my radio is broke and once it goes all the way down it wont come up. Then the web of lies and hastle I got from Kenwood about a repair. Yup I pretty much hate Kenwood. When I actually do get it repaired I will sell it out of spite.

 

they should make it so you can be able to put any pic

 

Cool... thanks guys

 

I dont know why i can't get into the setup mode, i'm following the steps all it does is ejects the cd.

 

BTW - on my DNX7100, all I needed to do was to put the convert file plus my image on a USB drive, connect it, then use the Setup->User Interface menu to pick the image. None of those steps list above would work.
