Resume and Last Memory

DVD-V VCD

When you stop playback of a disc, RESUME is shown in the display indicating that you can resume playback again from that point.

If the disc tray is not opened, the next time you start play- back the display shows RESUME and playback resumes from the resume point.

With DVDs and Video CDs, if you take the disc out of the player after stopping playback, the play posi- tion is stored in memory. If the next disc you load is the same one, the display shows LAST MEM and playback will resume. For DVD-Video discs, the player stores the play position of the last five discs. When one of these discs is next loaded, you can resume playback.

If you want to clear the resume point, press (stop) while RESUME is displayed.

Notes:

The Last Memory function doesn’t work with VR for- mat DVD-RW discs.

If you don’t need the Last Memory function when you

stop a disc, you can press (stop) button again to stop

playback and then press OPEN/CLOSE to open the disc tray.
