Basic playback controls
The table below shows the basic controls on
the remote for playing discs. The following
chapter covers other playback features in more
detail.
Resume and Last Memory
When you stop playback of a DVD, CD, Video
CD/Super VCD or DivX video 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-RW 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.
