Now...watching a DVD, deciding you have had enough for tonight and you turned your DVD player off, when you returned the next evening and turned the DVD player on, the programme started and carried on where you had left off the previous evening.

BUT...if you had taken the DVD out and reinserted it the next evening, would it STILL carry on where you had left off?

No. It would see it as a new session and start from the beginning.

I'd be amazed if it did, not that I'm an expert, mind.

Mine doesn`t. It starts over again and I do that if I want to re-start the film (for example if I forget to switch off the subtitles etc)

If you had software that remembered its place on every DVD youu ever played and recalled them when the DVD was re-inserted, your player would probably be the size of a Ford Transit!

Back in the day, my mother was losing her sight and subscribed to the audio books service run by her local library. Brilliant when the books were delivered on tape. Then the CD came along and the problems began. With the CD player they recommended (Big buttons and dials), if you turned it off you went back to the start when you turned it back on. Very frustrating.

Somebody in the local library advised her, For Funks Sake, that she should write down the position on the CD that she'd reached before turning it off. This to a blind woman. I completely stripped every shop in Essex of books on tape for her.

Sometimes the older technologies are better.

Watching DVD's on the PS3 was rather good,it could remember the position of about the last 2 or 3 disks put in there.It also upscaled them if you wanted.For a machine that,to me was supposed to be a games console,I was impressed,but I am old school and remember when a phone was...just a phone!
