Why does it start to play and then shut off

I got a bad one at first. They sent me out a new one and that one worked fine.

I also got a bad one first and complained and they sent me a new one. It seems to be working fine. I think you also got a bad one. With all these bad ones I don't think I can recommend them.

I think it really depends on the device that's plugged in. My iPhone 4S does stop playing but I think that's because the power input from the cigarette lighter switches off in my car when the car is turned off. Not all cars do that, some leave the lighter power on all the time. Playback on my 4S does resume from where it last stopped (I use the iOS Music Player) but you have to hit the Play icon, it won't play automatically.

As long as music is paying through ours, it stays on, but once it goes idle for a little while (about an hour I'd say, but I never timed it) it will shut off automatically.

It'll probably come on but u might have a problem in it cutting on and off to play It.. &#128534;

Hi Peggy - If you press the stop only once it will continue with the movie, if you press it twice then it starts from the beginning. If you turn off the player obviously it will start from the beginning again. Hope I have answered your question.

The one we purchased plays for 15 minutes I believe, before turning off. To save batteries I assume. It's been about six months, not sure if they are still being made this way.

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.

I find its when the batteries are getting low, the song hits a punch note and it peaks out the power shuts off. New batteries fixes the issue. Had one for about a year, and it so nice. 20 hours plus of play time on those 4 batteries.

You may have to disable PlayBack Control (PBC) in the Preferences menu on the player for this to work.Press "Stop"Go to "Preferences" in the setup menuSet Playback Control to "Off"That may do it.

This uses a battery, so starting your car has no effect on it. Unless the device your using to stream the music from is dependent on the car's power, then likely that device will stop playing. I stream from my phone, and has no effect when the car is started. Hope that makes sense

Hi,The play button acts as an on/off button. All you need to do is hold it down. We love this thing! and the sound quality is great!

My experience is that it does NOT have a restart feature. Press stop and the laser returns to the CD's starting point. You can PAUSE and PLAY but not restart.

My first one did this right out of the box. Sent it back and now my second one does it when I "lock" and then "unlock" the player. Needless to say, I'm not impressed.

If you want it to resume playing, just touch play/pause. If you don't want it to resume at the point you quit, press Stop twice. It will pick up where you left off, even if you remove the disk and reinsert it later. Does this answer your question? I'm not certain I know what you're asking.
