funwithmedia 352 Posted December 31, 2016 Share Posted December 31, 2016 Since External Players may vary in their ability to resume certain forms of media (eg, full DVD VIDEO_TS folder rips) it could be nifty if one could enable (on a per-external-player basis) to be prompted by ET for the Stop Time, so that when coming back to the item later there's a record of approximately where you stopped watching. I'm thinking it could go something like this.... "Would you like to enter your stop-time for easier resuming later?" There'd of course be a Cancel/No button, but pressing Back on one's remote (whatever that hotkey is in ET) should just exit out of the dialog. We could potentially use something like this for the incrementing/decrementing time interface: http://www.jqueryscript.net/time-clock/Simple-Time-Input-Spinner-Plugin-With-jQuery-TimingField.html And it might not be a bad idea to have a simple select between whether this was the "Main Feature" or not (this really only applies for things like VIDEO_TS rips, where there are multiple videos in DVD structure). But I'd be happy just having the prompt even without that additional clarification. Thanks for considering my idea! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37065 Posted January 1, 2017 Share Posted January 1, 2017 Yes the mobile app does this. I'd like to add it to Theater in the future. Thanks. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
