Resume and Last Memory

With the exception of DVD-Audio and SACD discs, when you stop playback of a DVD, CD, or Video CD/Super VCD or DivX video/WMV discs, 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 playback the display shows RESUME and playback resumes from the resume point. (If you want to clear the resume point, press  STOP while RESUME is displayed.)

With DVDs and Video CD/Super VCDs, if you take the disc out of the player after stopping playback, the last play position 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.

Note

The Last Memory function doesn’t work with VR format DVD-R/ -RW, DVD-Audio or SACD discs.

If you don’t need the Last Memory function when you stop a disc, you can press  OPEN/CLOSE to stop playback and open the disc tray.

DVD-Video and DivX disc menus

Some DivX media files and many DVD-Video and DVD-Audio discs feature menus from which you can select what you want to watch. They may also give access to additional features, such as subtitle and audio language selection, or special features such as slideshows. See the disc packaging for details.

Sometimes DivX and DVD-Video menus are displayed automatically when you start playback; others only appear when you press MENU or TOP MENU.

Important

Some DVD-Audio discs feature a ‘bonus group’. To play this group you first have to input a password, which you can find on the disc’s packaging. Use the number buttons to input the password.
