);

Remarks

This method retrieves information sufficient to restart playback of a video from the current playback location in titles that don't explicitly disable seeking to the current location. After the disc has been ejected, the information returned by this method will not necessarily be sufficient to restart playback. To save the current location and state information to disc so that the user can return to the same location at any later time, use GetState.
