Replying to: rennybosch (Nov 06, 2006 12:41 pm) What you are seeking is a request for the electronics world, not Lexus, and I doubt it's worth the investment or if it's even possible. I didn't understand what you were requesting until your last post. I had thought the same as OAC - that you couldn't come back to the spot in your CD if you switched modes. DVR's work the same way as far as I know. Switch off a recorded show to a live one and your exit spot is preserved. But switch to another recorded show and it's probably lost. I'm not 100%v sure on this as I don't remember having tested this. I do have a multiple disc DVD player at home and it also only keeps track of one DVD's exit position, not multiple DVD exit positions. Again - I don't even know if what you want is possible. It's possible a DVR does what you want though or will do so in the future. I can see it happening there, and if that's the case then it's possible the new LS460L or future models of it and other cars will be able to do it off the hard disk.

Replying to: ljflx (Nov 06, 2006 2:06 pm) I guess you are right, ljflx. Thanks for your reply. As far as home DVR's are concerned, mine (a Motorola unit furnished by Adelphia, which recently became Time Warner) does remember position for each program separately. I had recorded "Ocean's 11" (the original with the Sinatra rat pack), along with several other programs. After starting to watch the movie for a while, I switched over to watch a stored Seinfeld episode, and then a stored news program, and the next day I went back to the movie and it resumed exactly where it left off. Of course the unit wasn't reading different CD's, it was just reading from different locations on the hard disk, but it did have to remember "current position" for each recorded program. That's what I would like to see in the Mark Levinson.

Replying to: rennybosch (Nov 06, 2006 2:33 pm) Mine does as well - just tested it. So if you can store your music in CD groupings than the hard disc should be able to do the same thing with music that the DVR does with video. You may have to buy that 2007 LS afterall !

Replying to: oac (Nov 05, 2006 11:36 pm) Yes, mine already does that, and also when the phone rings, the CD stops and resumes right where it stopped after the call is through.

Replying to: ljflx (Nov 06, 2006 3:18 pm) I'm planning on it. Around next May, when I can get about 10% off MSRP.

Replying to: rennybosch (Nov 07, 2006 9:37 am) You're gonna need a lot of prayers to get 10% off this car in the this model year. Be hopeful they are discounting at all. |
