Does this player have a resume play feature that picks up where you left off? Need for listening to audiobooks.

No. You can pause the player for a short duration, but you can't stop and expect to start where it left off. By the way, this is a very poorly made CD player. I think you will be more happy with a different player.

This item will not work long enough for you to find out. Very disappointing

Resume mode is only active when an episode is also selected to play again after stopping. The player does not have a function to highlight any file while playing and replaying after a stop.

I have used this for audiobooks for more than a year. It is important that it is not paused while you fast forward or it will skip. It also seems that I have the best luck while pressing gently and steadily down on the right arrow key. If I press down without holding, the player skips to the next section. I have found that the player starts up right where I left it off if I hit pause and let it power down on its own. The only times I have to find my place are when I accidentally skip to the beginning of the next section or when I recharge it. I always have a pad by my computer and just write down the section and hours/minutes so I can find my place easily after charging.

Depending on how the programing is formatted... on my MP3 DIY programs, the only way to resume is to "pause" the playback & leave the player on. If the power switch is turned off, the playback doesn't always start from where it was paused. What's even more annoying is that the "skip" forward or backwards does the same thing... restarts from the beginning! Your results may be different, but this is how my MP3 DIY programs work. Really not an issue, once I figured out the workaround. :)

The stop button is with the power button below play/pause button. If the cd remains in the player it will resume where you left off. Otherwise it'll start at the beginning. Hope this helps.

The answer to both questions is "no". I have a question for you; have you found a way to "pause" when you are listening and then pick up where you left off. The instructions say you can but I have found that it to be true.

It will shuffle the playlist, but if you turn the player off and then back on again, it plays the "shuffled" list in the same order, and there is no way to re-shuffle the list.

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

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

Yes, it gives you a choice - "resume playback yes / no". This happened to us even after powering off the device.

If somebody finds a system that will resume the CD playback please do post here. I am on the lookout for one with that feature.

Yes you can. I've never done it but I know many who have. A couple of the previous generations didn't remember where you paused your audiobook, which was a nuisance, but apparently the 7th Gen Nano has fixed that :)

It does have resume play. It is a great price for the product. It's a little loud at start-up, but good deal. We're happy with the product.

Yes. I found the shuffle works best when I put one playlist on it. You could load a single book the same way, just do not program it to shuffle. You want to get to the ending in the old fashioned way.

The player remembers where you were, and gives you the "option" of going back to the beginning. If you simply press stop and walk away, the players shuts itself off after a period of time---and when you power up again, it plays fro where you left off. Hope that helps.

(For listening to audiobooks) Does this resume at the same place when you restart the car?
