I power of manually. And it makes no difference if I pause/stop playback first and then power off or if I power off while playing.

Crafty:
If it working correctly it resumes last track played and track position.

I had problems while developing theme when the fonts took too much memory.

It seem to have a hierarchy of failure.
1. looses track position and starts the track over.
2. looses track and starts playlist at the top.
3. looses last playlist and can resume.
4. Can't load M3U playlist but can create and load a dynamic playlist.
5. The FM radio theme doesn't load.

I would try a different theme....cabbieV2.

ELCore:
FYI. I think this is a legitimate bug.

I can have the same problem that the OP reported, depending on what build I use: when the playlist is shuffled, it is started again from the beginning after a shut-off. This happens whether the playlist is fairly large (more than 800 tracks) or fairly small (fewer than 40), or whether multiple folders are involved or only one. It does not seem to matter what theme, either: I usually use lebellium_Samsung-like_ABE now, but I switched back to runner_96x96, which I used to use all the time: the problem occurs with both themes.

I have some history with this problem: on January 9, 2013, I installed the latest daily build (62de15f-130103). In the next day or so, I noticed the problem. (I use my MP3 player mostly at work, and because of the nature of my job, I shut it off and turn it back on frequently through the day. That makes the problem quickly noticeable and very annoying.) I re-installed the daily build I had been using previously, from December 12, 2012 (6f47b29-121216): no problem.

The other day, I upgraded to the stable release (3.13). The problem returned, so I went back to the December 12th build: problem gone.

I have the same problem here.  I'm using a Clip Zip purely as an aid to getting to sleep and have the playlist set to Shuffle and the Sleep option set to 45 minutes.  But each night it starts again at the same song as it started on the previous night.

ELCore says that build 6f47b29-121216 works for him. Is there somewhere I can download this build from to see if it works for me?
