Auto-Resume

If you stop or close CyberLink PowerDVD during disc playback, and even play other files or discs immediately afterwards, the next time you play that specific disc title, you may resume playback from the last viewed scene.

The auto-resume feature remembers exactly where you left off the last time you watched the disc. The auto-resume feature includes the following options:

  • select Resume to continue from the point where you previously stopped watching.
  • select Restart to watch the disc from the beginning.
  • if you are watching a DVD, use a remote control, notebook touch pad, your keyboard, or click and drag a thumbnail with your mouse to scroll through the chapter thumbnails in FancyView. Select a specific chapter to begin playback from that chapter.

Note: the resume function is not supported for video files and only for DVD files located on the hard drive if an IFO file is present.

If you do not wish to see this feature every time you insert a disc, you can configure the Auto-resume setting on the Player settings tab. See Player for more information.
