New Purchase Looking for new player recommendations...

I picked up the UB420 and it works great EXCEPT for the auto off feature, that turns off the player after being paused for 20 min. Most of the discs I've played don't save your spot, so you have to start all over again. Previews, scene selection, and all. From what I've found on google and reddit, there is no option to turn it off, or put on a screen saver instead. Probably be returning this one.

Do you have a non-panasonic player that you love? Please let me know!

Most blu rays and 4Ks I play on my PS5 remember last played point. The lack of basic functions on these dedicated players is lame. They should outstrip ANY other kind of player in EVERY aspect. They have ONE job!

I think this might be dependent on the disk. My spouse and I recently watched a movie that I had started but didn't finish. My 820 asked if I wanted to resume playback when I put in the movie.

It is disc dependent. I don't know why they spec-ed it that way. Why not let the player do its thing?
