If you shut off power to vehicle, does DVD player resume where it left off or restart at beginning of movie?

The units are battery powered; cigarette lighter cord only function is to keep the battery charged. So if you keep battery charged properly, AND DO NOT POWER DOWN THE UNIT WHEN YOU STOP VIEWING YOUR DVD, then the unit will Resume your DVD at the point you were viewing before you turned the player "off" (stopped it)--assuming you do NOT switch the main power switch (upper right) of the player to Off. The battery in the player will keep the DVD 'memory' active and hold your Resume place until it goes dead (about 2 hours or so.)

There is no battery. The most helpful poster is mistaken. If power is off and turned back on, this player will revert to starting as if a new disc were inserted.

As long as you STOP the movie first...it will resume; otherwise it will start at the beginning again!

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

Yes it resumes where you stopped before. If you pause the DVD, and the player shuts down, it will start where you paused it. Great feature. Also love that it has a USB port.

No, and the DVD player can only be use when the e-brake is on or with a bypass

Sorry but I will need more information. What do you mean by "stop after 15 min" ? Was it no power at all or would not play a DVD? I have been using my Sony for years and occasionally have to unplug it and replug it in to clear internal glitches, but other than that I have had no trouble at all.

Yes, it will remember where you left off when you switch discs. This is usually a standard feature in DVD changers. My particular model is a Sony, but I'd be willing to bet that the Onkyo will do the same thing.

I am not a high tech person. Not sure what you mean by that function. But if it remembering where you are if you stop watching the dvd to return later, then I don't think so. But I just hit the "pause/step" button, turn off the tv. I leave the dvd player on, though. When I want to watch the rest of the dvd I just turn on the tv (channel 3, and then go to the dvd setting, if I moved it out of that to watch the regular tv) and hit play. It starts up. I even think if I turn off the dvd player, it still starts where I stopped it (not completely sure). Linda

hit menu button (top left of the remote) and make sure resume is selected and turned on! from then on it starts where it left off upon returning to the vehicle!! (all you need to do is push the power button! it works for me on dvd's, usb and flash media cards! (my son always continues the film where he left of - not an easy feat i have over 60 kids movies on 32GB USB stick -as i don't think DVD's in the car is ideal because of wear and tear exerted on DVD's)

This unit continues to play CD's and DVD's when you shut the lid down. You need to manually TURN OFF the power after closing the lid, otherwise the battery gets run down if you unplug it.

I used mine to record a recorded movie to another DVDR. I had trouble going to the beginning since it does have a resume play. I even took the disk out and shut off my player. the disk I was playing kept starting over

It starts right where it left off after either pulling the plug or using the button. At least mine does while playing from a USB stick.

If you press the stop button to turn off the machine, it will resume at the point where it stopped. If you open the case to replace the batteries or for any other reason--even after pressing stop--play will resume at the beginning of the disc.

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.

If it is installed correctly (specifically, one of the electrical connections must always have power), it will continue playing from where it left off. If you are in the middle of a video, turn the car off, and leave the screen open, when you start the car again, it will automatically turn on and start playing where it left off, without doing anything.

Yes, it does. If you power off and leave the disk in, it will also resume playing when you turn the machine back on. This is setup in the menu.

If you turn off the switch, it will start back at the beginning. If you press the "play-pause" button, which is a "rolly thingy", it will stop and restart where you left off. If you "pause" it, then turn it off, it will start where you left off.

When playing CD talking books, the player resumes at the last location when turned on. Should work the same for playing DVD's.
