Parental Control DVD-ADVD-V

Operation

Notes:

–The player memory can maintain 120 authorized (Disc locked) disc titles. A disc title will be added to the list if [Play always] is selected.

–Each time a Disc locked disc is played, it will be added to the top of the list. When the list is full (120), the last disc in the list will be replaced when a new disc is added.

–Double-sided DVDs and multi-volume VCDs may have a different ID for each side. In order to make Disc Locks to such discs, each side must be authorized.

DVD movies may contain scenes that are unsuitable for children. Therefore, discs may contain Parental Control information that may apply to the entire disc or to certain scenes. These scenes are rated from 1 through 8. Alternative, more suitable scenes may be available on the disc. Ratings are country-specific.
