[QUOTE="smarty12345, post: 1134348, member: 116919"] I wonder if its to do with Drive letters and the "temporary" nature of discs. The resume feature works from "Videos", so something is obviously working. (until you eject the disc of course) It seems like some how the "shortcut" on the menu for "play disc" can't find the correct path to the drive letter the disc is in once its played the first time and Videos has snatched the job and recorded the resume point. Give the resume does work, it seems like the most comlicated bit is already coded and working correctly. I know nothing about coding though. There may well be a good reason the "play disc" option can't work from the resume info. However, if that were the case, I would much rather just be able to start the disc from the begging each time and skip forward if I had to. The fact I have to restart media portal each time before play disc works again is a pain. Yes, autorun works, but that still isn't ideal just on its own.[DOUBLEPOST=1430056808][/DOUBLEPOST] Do you use PowerDVD launched as a 3rd party player from withing Media Portal? or do you just close media portal and lauch PowerDVD when you want to watch a disc?
