Resume Function
It is possible to memorize the position where you stop playback 
and resume playback from that position.
● Be sure to set “RESUME” to “ON” or “DISC RESUME”. (墌 pg. 70)
1 Press 8 during playback to memorize a resume point.
● The unit enters Resume Stop mode and memorize the position 
where you have stopped playback as a resume point. (The inside of 
the disc status indicator on the front display panel blinks while 
memorizing.)
● The unit retains a memory of the resume points of the last 30 discs 
played back, even though they have been ejected if “RESUME” is set 
to “DISC RESUME”. (
墌 pg. 70)
● To clear the resume points:
(The inside of the disc status indicator stops blinking and lights.)
When “RESUME” is set to “ON”:
• Press 1 to turn off the unit.
• Press x (OPEN/CLOSE) to take out the disc.
• Press 8 in stop mode.
• Press TOP MENU to display the top menu, then start playback by 
selecting an item, etc.
• Press MENU to display the disc menu, then start playback by selecting 
an item, etc.
When “RESUME” is set to “DISC RESUME”:
• Set “RESUME” to “OFF”. (墌 pg. 70)
• Press 8 in stop mode.
• Press TOP MENU to display the top menu, then start playback by 
selecting an item, etc.
• Press MENU to display the disc menu, then start playback by selecting 
an item, etc.
2 Press 4 in stop mode to resume playback. The unit starts 
playback from the resume point.
NOTES:
● “DISC RESUME” setting works on DVD VIDEO, VCD and already 
finalized DVD-R/DVD-RW (video mode) discs. For other types of 
discs, the function under “ON” setting will be applied even if 
“RESUME” is set to “DISC RESUME”. (墌 pg. 70)
● If you stop the playback of a disc for which an resume point has 
already been memorized, the memory will be updated with the new 
resume point.
● After the unit has memorized the resume point for 30 discs, 
remembering a new resume point will cause the unit to delete the 
oldest memorized point. Stopping playback of a disc for which a 
resume point is already stored may change the order in which the 
points are stored. This may potentially change the order in which 
points are deleted.
● When the unit memorizes a resume point for a disc, it also 
remembers audio language, subtitle and angle settings.
● This function may not work for some Video CD.
● When “RESUME” is changed to “ON” or “OFF” (墌 pg. 70), resume 
points of the discs memorized with “RESUME” set to “DISC 
RESUME” will be cleared.
● Resume points are memorized for each side of a double-sided disc.
Marking Positions To Play Back Again Later
It is possible to mark positions (up to 999 points) where you want 
to play back once again later, and start playback from a marked 
position.
To mark positions:
During playback, press MARK at 
positions you want to mark.
● “MARK” appears on the TV screen. 
You can easily locate the marked 
positions using 2 or 6 when you 
play back the disc.
To delete the marked positions:
While paused, press 2 or 6 to 
locate a marked position you want to 
delete, then press MARK.
● Crossed “MARK” appears on the TV 
screen, and the marked position is 
deleted.
NOTES:
● When a monaural program changes to a stereo program while 
recording, a mark signal is automatically recorded.
● When a DVD-R/RW (Video mode) disc is finalized, marked points 
marked before finalizing will be deleted, and programs will be divided 
automatically into “chapters” approximately every 5 minutes.
