Note: Remember that Content Advisory data or encoded information is not available with all received TV program- ming (this also includes commercials, and other program spot announcements). Broadcaster’s can decide not to encode any kind of content advisory ratings with their programming, or they can actually choose to encode pro- grams to be “unrated.”
The TV Blocking Options allow the viewer to block any program without content advisory data with the use of its “NO RATING INFORMATION” control. And to block programs that are encoded as “unrated” with its “UNRAT- ED PROGRAMMING” control option.
Since the reception of Content Advisory data can take a few seconds, you may want to use the “CHANNEL CHANGE” option to be sure no viewing is allowed during blocked program channel changes. This can eliminate the display of a few seconds of undesirable video on the TV, or receiving scenes from a Ratings blocked channel source.
