Sure does:

In addition to the methods noted, double clicking the stop button clears the bookmark.

For your ongoing journey, I'd suggest that you keep this page handy (I do):
http://wiki.jriver.com/index.php/Category:Frequently_Asked_Questions (http://wiki.jriver.com/index.php/Category:Frequently_Asked_Questions)
It has a wealth of good info, the trick is getting familiar with the terminology.

Have fun ..  ;)

No, it won't.  Bookmarking is for your library entries, not random URLs.

thank you.
I have been using xmbc. That has some things that I like that jriver hasn't , and vice versa.
Maybe one day, i will come across a media player, that will do all i need.

MC will import and convert youtube files that then become part of the library. Do that step and you've got the functionality. Job done..  ;)

Thank you for replying
do you mean if i download youtube videos.
I want to be able to stream them, stop somewhere on the video, and tomorrow or whenever, replay the video from where i stopped.

Yes, any file you have in your MC library is a candidate for Bookmarking.  Different media types have different default settings for automatic bookmarking; video has bookmarking on by default, for sufficiently long videos.

Thanks. Unfortunately, as indicated. That['s not what I am looking for. The program is very nice. But overall i think x,bc suits me better. Thank you for all the help, and prompt answers to my questions I received.

He Astromo.

Does this mean that I can download a Youtube video and save it to the computer if I am watching it via MC?

Just had a look at the proposed hardware. It lacks spdif output, so it is a no go for audio setups. I would require electrical and optical spdif in such a box. Also bundling hardware will make sales outside of the us more difficult. Would you might consider instead is a headless software package with two or three recommendations on hardware. You might sell that on a premium, depending on added value and or saved time / ease of installation.
