    Hi,

    I authored a dvd with a menu that has two audio streams. I wrote some commands to make that once you have entered the film and go back to menu the audio two is played.

    In short, when i put the dvd in my standalone for the first time menu plays audio 1, when I go to the film and play menu again, this time is the audio 2 which is played.

    The problem is my Pioneer 470 seems to have the memory of an elephant. I press stop button, I switch it off, I eject the tray, no matter what I do the player starts always at last memory point, that's to say with the menu playing audio 2.

    I tried the dvd in two other standalones (Samsung, Kiss) and have no problem at all to start a fresh play after switching the player off.
    I think my Pioneer has memory for five differents dvds, so one solution is to put five discs for the player to lose its memory.

    Anyway, I would appreciate some information about this issue.

    How does players last memory work?
    Is there a command I could write to avoid this last memory isue?

    I thought about writing some precommand in the video manager first play, but it's obvious that players last memory doesn't care about first play.

    Thanks in advance.

    Hopefully, Pioneer put a setting switch in player's preferences menu that allows turning Memory off.

    Otherwise, you're SOL. That's specific to the player's firmware.

    Generally, either ejecting the disc without pressing stop, or pressing stop twice, will stop or cancel the disc being stored in memory. This is certainly how it works with both my Pioneer and LG players.
