Title: starting DVD playback from beginning
Post by: nickharambee on June 07, 2006, 12:08:53 pm: hello

is there a setting i can change so that DVD playback always starts from the beginning? at the moment i get a brief opening sequence and then the DVD skips to the last scene i have watched, when i would like it to run through the normal start up sequence, menus, etc.

thanks

thanks

This is much more logical.

I'm with you with this problem. I like MC very much but I going crazy over the resume function. And the bookmark.dat file I don't find on my computer!! I hope this will be fixed soon.

Best regards/ Mats
