8.8. Automatic resume
The automatic resume feature stores and recalls resume positions for all tracks without
user intervention. These resume points are stored in the database, and thus automatic
resume only works when the database has been initialized.
When automatic resume is enabled, manually selected tracks resume playback at their
last playback position. It does not matter in which way you start the track; tracks are
resumed whether they are navigated to through the database browser or file browser,
by starting a playlist, or by skipping through tracks in the current playlist. (As an
exception, when a track is resumed by loading a bookmark, the playback position saved
in the bookmark takes precedence.)
Optionally, you can also enable automatic resume for automatic track transitions.
In this case, the next track will be resumed as well instead of starting playback at its
beginning. This is most useful for podcasts, and can be enabled on a per-directory basis.
A track’s resume position is updated whenever playback of that track stops, including
when explicitly stopping the track, powering off the player, or starting playback of
another track.
If you intend to start a track from its beginning but notice that it was resumed, you
can press
Left
in the WPS to skip back to its beginning. When pressing
Left
again
in the first few seconds of a track to go to the previous track, the previously (on first
button press) saved resume position is retained. Therefore, you can also use
Left
and
Right
to skip across tracks in a playlist without losing their resume position.
Automatic resume.
This option enables or disables automatic resume globally. When
Rockbox detects that the database (which is needed for this feature) has not been
initialized yet, it asks whether it should be initialized right away.
