Can this be set so that the disk in the player does NOT automatically start playing upon bootup?

I went through all the player settings in "setup" for this unit and could not find a way to turn off the "auto-play" feature. There may be a way to turn if off but, if there is, I couldn't find it.

Yes it plays automatically for all of the loaded discs in the tray in sequence. You can also individual discs to play. The following was taken from the Basic Playback section of the manual: 1 Press STANDBY/ON on the front panel. 2 Press OPEN/CLOSE / on the front panel to open the disc loading tray. 3 Place the chosen discs in the tray, printed side up. 4 Press PLAY. &#10140;The disc tray closes and playback starts automatically for all of the loaded discs in the tray in sequence.

I've never had that happen. I do stop the disc from playing first and then eject it because I had read some people were having trouble with jammed discs. I'm sorry.... I don't know how to unjam it.

if you actually turn off the power button it restarts the dvd. If you just hit the stop then it will play from where you stopped it but you have to hit play twice.

plug in the external cd/dvd player and reboot. hit F12 during the reboot and you should go to a menu that allows you to choose the external drive as your boot device, then hit enter to confirm when asked. cheers Larry

No and if you can get the case open you will ruin the player, also if the player just stops working for no apparent reason let the player set for a few hours and then try it again. It's worked for me in the past.

I haven't had to use that function yet, but most blu rays do have that function. When you turn the player back on it should ask you to resume or not. Hope this helps you.

You can set the mode either way. I use it set to "All Disk" + "Random" + "Repeat" to keep music going in the office all day

Yes it does automatically play as long as it is in "USB" mode, not auxiliary.

No, once the unit is turned off all functions e.g. (CD/MP3) will begin from the first track/folder.

The DVD will restart from current point as long as you do not remove the disc from the player.

We just set the Function Selector to "Cassette"...as far as I know, no power is used when in this position, until the actual "Tape" PLAY button is pressed.

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.

Yes, if you hit stop once or hit pause. Then turn off. I have had no problems with this player.

You might try upgrading the firmware on your current player -- that may solve your disc compatibility problems

I always use the disk. Some programs allow you to load program and then play off of your hard drive.

My player is in the car and not with me; however, to stop it from playing, just turn it off. I will keep your question open and get back to you if there is another answer.
