No, not at this point. I even tried to book mark a spot and only got a red cross circle (a you can't do that sign ). And I forgot to ask the Nerd Heard guy (ok, ok, the Geek Squad Guy) if he knew anything about that. But he was already spending way too much time on the Harmonie for free as it was.....

So, my question is.....

Any one else have a Blueray player that they can stop the Blueray DVD, and then resume where they left off? And even better, does anyone have the same player as I do and manage to get it to do this? Is it me or my player, or is it just the way this technology is?

From what I've seen (and tried with a friend's Samsung 2550 Bluray player), along with reading on AVSForum and blu-ray.com, resume is only available on NON BD-J discs, with certain players - I've seen posts of certain Samsung models not resuming even on non BD-J discs.

I use WinDVD plus Bluray for most of my playback, and use bookmarks to resume play.

Thanks Matt, that's confirms what I've been seeing. Perhaps some day they will be able to get the software (and maybe the hardware, I don't know) to be able to handle the loading to allow for a resume function. As it stands it seems to struggle loading the large amount of data as it is.....
