To resume playback

Basic operations

When the resume mode is set to [ON]

Press 7 .

The unit stops playback and memorizes the interrupt position.

In this condition, the memory of the interrupt position is not cleared if you press STANDBY/ON (on the front panel) or DVD STANDBY/ON (on the remote control unit) to turn off the unit.

Note that if you press 0 to open the disc tray, the memory of the interrupt position is cleared.

Hints

•The interrupt position is also stored by pressing STANDBY/ON (on the front panel) or DVD STANDBY/ON (on the remote control unit).

•To clear the memory, press 7 while the disc stopped.

Available :

When the resume mode is set to [DISC RESUME]

¶While stopped, or no disc is inserted

1 Press 0 to insert a disc for which the unit has stored an interrupt position.

After loading the disc, the display window on the front panel shows [RESUME STOP].

(If a disc for which you want to resume playback is already set in the disc tray, go to step 2.)

2 Press 3.

The display window shows [RESUME PLAY] and the unit resumes playback from the position where playback was interrupted.

The unit maintains the memory of the interrupt position for the disc, even if you remove the disc from the disc tray and replace it again. The unit also maintains the memory of the interrupt position while the disc is in the disc tray.

•To play back a disc from the beginning (instead of the interrupted position) After loading the disc, press 7 before pressing 3 to start playback.

Pressing 7 while the disc is stopped clears the memory of the interrupted position.

Every time you interrupt playback, the position is remembered as the new "resume" point.

When the resume mode is set to [ON]

¶While the disc you interrupted playback last time* is still on the disc tray (*by pressing 7 or by turning off the power)

Press 3.

The unit resumes playback from the position where playback was interrupted.

If you press 3 then 7 , the unit starts playback after the display window shows [RESUME PLAY]. Note that you cannot resume playback if you interrupted playback last time by opening the disc tray.

•To play back a disc from the beginning (instead of the interrupted position) Do any of the following:

*Press 7 while stopped, then press 3.

*Turn on the unit by pressing DVD STANDBY/ON (on the remote control unit) or STANDBY/ON (on the front panel) then press 3.

NOTES

•If you use the [OTHERS] preference display to change the [RESUME] setting from [DISC RESUME] to [OFF] or [ON], you cannot resume playback of a disc whose "resuming" position is stored. However, if you again set [RESUME] to [DISC RESUME], you will then be able to resume playback of the disc.

•If you open the disc tray while RESUME mode is set to ON, the "resume" point will be cleared.

•The resume function does not work with Audio CD, MP3 and JPEG discs.

•In the case of a SVCD/Video CD disc with PBC function, the unit may resume playback from a point slightly earlier or later than the point where playback was interrupted.

•The unit may not resume playback exactly from the interrupt point.

•For a double-sided DVD AUDIO/DVD VIDEO disc, the unit regards each side as a different disc. Therefore, to resume playback of such a disc, the disc must be loaded with the same side down.

•When the unit memorizes an interrupt point for a disc, it also remembers Audio, Subtitle and Angle settings (regardless of whether [RESUME] is set to [DISC RESUME] or [ON]).

•If you interrupt playback while the menu for a DVD AUDIO, DVD VIDEO, SVCD or Video CD is shown on the TV screen, the unit may not correctly memorize the interrupt position, regardless of whether the [RESUME] mode is set to [ON] or [DISC RESUME].
