When recording stops does it go back to the beginning of the file like most recorders or do you have to push "back" first?

You have the control of when recording stops. When you do, it automatically sets up to start a brand new recording file.

No, this recorder doesn't have such function. Click "on" and it will start recording only

It records one video, as long as there is motion to record. Once it stops, it does not restart, so is not actually motion activated, which would continue to start and stop, each time there was motion to record.

Yes. There is a small switch on the side. When you set it to the "record" position, you press the large button to begin the recording and again to stop it. When you set it to the "play" position, it plays your recorded audio.

I normally pause via the touch screen. In recording mode, you can use the record button as it is a toggle between record and pause. In play back, the pause is activated via the touch screen.

it is a loop recorder, once the memory is full it will start recording over from the beginning

From record to stop is one file. I have only recorded an hour and a half straight, though.

I do not know, but one would think it would stop recording. Nothing in the book so it is just something to test. I use a 32gb card, gets about 90% filled in a month. If there is no event to look back at, I just delete and start over again.

It records in a first in first out. So once the card is full it starts over. You have the ability to select the file size in minutes and yes there is a slight overlap between each of the files, so no data is lost. Lastly, you can select KPH or MPH. I have had mine for several months and it works great.

If you are playing a video of course you can pause it and resume it. If you are talking to do that while you are recording a video I did not see that option.

Does the player have an automatic return to stop when the record is finished?

I tested this function. It recorded one straight shot for 24 1/2 minutes and then stopped recording. It did not automatically start recording a new file but the camera did stay on. Pressing the record button again starts a new recording file.

1st souloution when you hit record once, it goes into a pre record mode, the rec light should blink, this is so you can check the levels etc, once you hit record a second time it will start recording 2nd soloution: there is an auto record setting, at first you might think than means like a camera on auto to just set levels etc automatically but its not. The auto record means that it will record when it "hears" something, and the sensitivity is adjustable. so once you hit record it may be stopping because the sounds is to low against the sensiotivity asettings. Disable the auto recording and you should be fine. This recorder is one of the nest on the market for a lot of reasons, i have 3 tascams models and 2 zooms, it take an hour or 2 to read the manuel but when your on location it pays to know your stuff

It takes a few seconds before recording starts after you push record. As for looking at it, I don't think it knows if you're looking at it or not. Just push the record button, look wherever you want.

If you hit the rewind button while playing, you should be able to put the recorder in rewind mode. Otherwise its hit stop and then rewind. Since I returned the unit, I am assuming you would be able to go directly from playing to rewind without stopping and then rewinding for any period. Similar recorders do have that feature.

Yes starting and stopping will result in a new file. This allows you to name each scene for easier production, remember you want short scenes 10-12 seconds. You can always piece together in your editor software and transition to a new scene. The other option is to keep the camera filming and cut out the section you don't want, but this waste battery and storage space.

The camera makes one contiguous file when you pause and then continue to record. If you're trying to use the camera with a program like HUDL, etc it works fine. The start/stop recording action sets a marker which the programs read to fragment the single file on upload.
