Resuming playback

The unit can memorize the position on a disc where you interrupt playback, and resume playback from that position later.

There are three resume modes; ON, OFF and DISC RESUME. The mode is initially set to ON when you purchased the unit.

•You can select the mode using the preference display (see page 40).

When the resume mode is “ON”

When you press 7, the unit stops playback and memorizes the interrupted position. The TV screen shows [RESUME STOP] and the display window shows [– – – – RESUME] (for DVD AUDIO/ DVD VIDEO discs) or [– – RESUME] (for SVCD/Video CD/VR format discs).

The memory of the interrupted position is not cleared if you turn off the unit.

When you turn off the unit after setting the resume function, simply press 3. The unit is turned on, and playback starts from the interrupted position. If you turn on the unit by pressing then press 3, playback starts from the beginning of the disc. Note that the memory is cleared if you open the disc tray.

When the resume mode is “DISC RESUME”

When you press 7, the unit stops playback and memorizes the interrupted position. The TV screen shows [RESUME STOP] and the display window shows [– – – – RESUME] (for DVD AUDIO/ DVD VIDEO discs) or [– – RESUME] (for SVCD/Video CD discs).

The memory of the interrupted position is not cleared if you open the disc tray or turn off the unit.

Hint

The unit memorizes interrupted positions for the last 30 discs played. Storing a new interrupted position will erase the interrupted position stored for the first disc.

To clear the memory

Press 7 while the disc is stopped.

To resume playback

When the resume mode is “ON”

While the disc you interrupted playback is still on the disc tray, press 3.

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

To play back from the beginning

Press 7 before pressing 3 to start playback.

When the resume mode is “DISC RESUME”

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

The TV screen shows [RESUME STOP].

2 Press 3.

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

To play back from the beginning

After inserting the disc, press 7 before pressing 3 to start playback.

NOTES

•If you change the [RESUME] setting from [DISC RESUME] to [OFF] or [ON], you cannot resume playback of a disc whose “resuming” position is stored. However, when you again set [RESUME] to [DISC RESUME], you will then be able to resume playback of the disc.

•If you interrupt the playback of a disc for which an interrupted position has already been stored, the memory will be updated with the new interrupted position.

•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 inserted with the same side down.

•When the unit memorizes an interrupted point for a disc, it also memorizes Audio, Subtitle and Angle settings.

•The unit may not resume playback exactly from the interrupted point. In the case of an 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.
