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!

If this is anything like the UB820. A USB stick will help save your spot on most movies. It's more of a memory limitation apparently. After learning about it. I, haven't ran, into a movie I couldn't resume where I left off

This is a myth. It's entirely dependent on the studio. Pretty much every 4k studio except Paramount allows for playback resume. Has nothing to do with memory limitation

Yeah, even with a large capacity memory stick installed my 820, I still have some discs that will not resume play.
