Reset Playback Position

Post by BazzaG » Fri Oct 18, 2019 09:10

If I highlight or select a video file that has been played and select the MENU key I see there is a option to "Reset Playback Position". Doing so works just fine. But I would like to do so for ALL video files in the directory ... in some cases there are dozens & even hundreds of short video files.

Highlighting the directory name and selecting the MENU key does NOT provide the Reset option.

Nor can I see an option to highlight or select all of the video files in the directory (like what you can do in Windows Explorer for example).

I also tried renaming the directory from "Fred" to "Fred123" and then back to "Fred" but that didn't work.

So is there any quick way of Resetting the Playback Position for all the video files within a directory?

TIA

No but it worked a treat though.

I was looking for a "select" or "mark" option/button. PREV and NEXT really aren't that intuitive or maybe I'm simple too old ....

Anyway, thanks muchly.

The HELP button can be of some assistance there too.
The list of functions can be pretty long, so sometimes some commands are easy to miss.

Actually I did look at the Help info ... but as you say the list can be long and I didn't go down the list far enough.

Yeah, but "mark" is mentioned 6 times in the HELP screen for MEDIA :lol:
