Ratings Explained

General Operation

To block channels you don’t want your children to watch, you can filter them with the ratings function. MPAA lets you control ratings for movies. For regular TV programs you can use USTV settings. USTV settings lets you filter what content you want at each age level, TV-Y, to TV-MA (refer to definitions below). Below are definitions for each setting.
