Pausing Blu-rays

[smoss469]

There are 2 options.

1) No resume feature.
2) Resume after hitting stop/timeout/screensaver

People who prefer option 1, seem to not want option 2 to even be available; as if stopping the movie is beneath their idea of a view experience and even seem to be condescending to those who want the feature.

Option 2, would make both parties happy. If you watch from start to finish then you'll never need it, however it's there if you do.

Think of it like a safety net for a high wire act. You might never need it, but it's nice knowing it's there.

Where I have highlighted, for those situations you should be able to resume just fine. If you pause your player where it times out and turns itself off after being in screen saver mode for a period of time, then you should be able to change the settings in your player to correct this. If you are experiencing timing out issues with pausing discs from particular studios, where the disc doesn't resume when you press unpause and the film restarts from the beginning, then you need to figure out what button on your remote triggers the resume function for these titles, as these can always be resumed from the discs screen saver mode.

So instead of using pause I should stop and then resume? I will try that and see if that takes care of the problem. Thanks...

That's not what he was saying for you to do, he wasn't offering a suggestion. At least try what's already been suggested to you by myself and others, then come back and let us all know if it fixed the issue or not.
