    Video App does not play where left off


    Hi,

    I've just purchased a Surface 3 with a view to replacing my iPad for media and also allow me to do some work on it when not near my primary machine.

    I've copied across a season of TV ripped from DVD and applied all the Metadata through MyMeta in the store. The video plays absolutely fine (.m4v file) but if I pause and exit the app it does not remember where I left off. This is the same foe films as well. My iPad will also restart the episode/movie from where I was last watching it and this is a critical requirement when I usually spread my viewing across the day or over multiple days around the kids etc.

    Microsoft advertise this ability with media purchased through their store but wondered if this should work for non-store purchased media as well? I think the iPad has a setting to do this and I wondered if something similar is available in the windows video app (I've looked and can't see anything but I'm from a Mac background so not an expert on windows).

    Thanks
    Mark.

    :)

    VIDEO PLAYBACK ANOMALY N95

    Does it work if you close the video and restart it? >

    Yes, it works if you stop the Video, but then you cannot resume playing from where you left off!

    Does it happen with any format of video or a particular video type? >

    I've been playing MP4 coded Videos using RealPlayer, Version: s60.30.32.01 M

  3. xbox 360 issue with amazon video

    When watching an Amazon video TV series on xbox 360, when an episodes ends the app does not advance to the next episode. Also, when we finish an episode and turn off for the night, the next day when we turn it on again, the app does not remember where we
    left off. We have to scroll through the series to find where we left off. Why doesn't it remember where we left off?
