How come it doesn't automatically save my place in the movie when I turn it off?

I'm not sure, the instruction booklet that comes with this is useless, it does not address problems like this or where you can check for an answer. The screen lost it's color on mine, no where to check what the problem is or how to fix it. I am returning mine.

Unfortunately the device I received was defective and I returned it. Sorry I could not be of more help

Yes you can stop a movie, turn it off, and turn it back on & start where you left off

There is an auto off feature. You probably accidentally activated this feature.

The easiest way is to hit Pause when playing the movie. You'll see the settings "gear" in the upper right hand corner. Also, looking at the files in this box on my computer shows 2 files for each movie - one large, one small. I assume the small one is the subtitle file but I haven't had the nerve to delete it yet. Maybe copy and save it elsewhere then delete to find out.

There is an "Auto Power Off" option built in. You must be in "Optical" mode to turn it off. Even if off, if nothing is "flowing" through the device for a certain amount of minutes, it shuts off automatically. One other item . . . . if you are using HDMI IN and are trying to play something that uses DTS Surround Sound, it will shut off automatically - as if nothing is "flowing" through the device. This built in auto power off option should be deleted.

Hello Mark. If you push pause it does. But if you push stop or Power off it completely stops and your place is not saved. Hope this is what you are looking for. Marlyn Bradshaw.

When I first got it, it did. An automatic update seems to have disabled that function. To use the DVD/BluRay I have to load a disc. Then it automatically plays. If you pause a movie and turn off the unit, when you restart you have to eject the disc and reinsert. Not sure why it lost the ability to list it in the menu. May just be a flaw with my unit. You can ask Sony directly. It doesn't annoy me enough to mess with because I normally just stream movies from the internet these days or play CD's and concert videos.

I turn it off when it is my bag, but if you are leaving it sit somewhere it will turn itself off without the switch.

Playback-only is probably the most common use. Some discs now have other features that would require internet connection, but that's probably not why you bought/rented the disc to begin with. As far as the auto-off, I have never heard of it. It's not clear from your question: are you referring to some kind of timer that works if you leave a disc on pause for too long? Because a 30-minute auto-off feature would not make sense if you're watching a 90-minute movie.

You can click to save, but I don't believe it will save it right there, I do believe it will just return you to the checkpoint. I could be wrong though, I usually just use the checkpoints haha

I found that (with you facing the screen) the top left button, if you hold it down for a few seconds it will turn off the screen and keep recording. If you hold it again for a few seconds it will turn the screen back on.

Everything is suppose to automatically save to the memory card. If not go to setting and go to storage after checking if you can't see the way to do it ask again k

The mount save the last date, location and time entered. If i restart the mount, I just must change the time because it stop the time when is turned off.

I put it in my player and push play. After it plays through 1 cycle I take it out and put my movie in.

The movie picks up where you left off. If you turn it off, then it will start over,

Yes it can save position in the movie. I have done it while streaming from amazon so I don't know if amazone video is saving the location or if the DVD player is. I suspect it is amazon. I hope this helps
