By chance, I've figured out how the little cube as further plays where he left off. "MENU" button then 5x the "forward button" or 2x the "back button" then you end up on the menu item "back" (or english "Back") now again press menu and the player will pause, and the time is displayed. Now you can turn off the player. the next time he plays up where he left off and is looking forward. to the device itself: small, angular, noisy, pleasant sound, even taking 32GB cards. got me for 6EU ne 1200mAh battery and ordered he duddelt and duddelt and duddelt. great device. Incidentally, I have 3 of them.
