    Abstract: A device and a method for playing audio-video content (205) during which loss of attention of a user (192) is detected. Loss of attention of the user generates at least one attention loss marker (255) that is stored in an attention loss storage unit (210). The user may revert playback to a point in time corresponding to the attention loss marker using a user interface unit (190). By storing markers corresponding to points of attention loss by the user and requiring explicit user input, the attention loss detector may detect attention loss with an accuracy lower than would otherwise be the case. Optionally, storing of the attention loss markers may be made conditional upon a content analysis unit (420), such as a commercial block detector. An attention loss marker indication (260) may be made visible to the user to indicate that at least one attention loss marker has been detected.
