Bookmark feature

I think it would be useful to "bookmark" a spot on a recording and be given the opportunity to skip to that spot when selecting that recording.  I watch shows while I'm walking on the treadmill and I usually stop watching whenever I get to the end of my walk.  

I watch shows on my Roku while I'm walking on the treadmill and I usually stop watching whenever I get to the end of my walk.  The way it is now I have to fast forward to the place I stopped the day before.  It's not always easy to remember the place.  If I was given the option of bookmarking my place and being able to skip to that spot the next day, it would be a huge plus.

    It would be great to automatically save this seek position for multiple video view like it does for one video at a time.  Then when you re-watch any video you can be asked to start at the beginning or where you last stopped

    I recommend you consider using Plex (http://plex.tv/) or Emby (http://emby.media/) for playback of videos. They have multiple features like this that PlayOn lacks. They don't support automatically skipping ads with AdSkipper, however.

    The Plex media server is free (and, unlike PlayOn, can run on more than just Windows PCs). Many of the Plex apps have a one time fee but there's a free alternative to the official one for Roku called Rarflix (http://rarflix.com/). The Emby server and Roku channel are also free.
