movie rating. Some DVDs may give you the option of entering your

 

password to allow playback. If not, change the PARENTAL setting so you

 

can watch the Disc.

 

Not all DVDs conform to the levels you select, as not all DVDs are coded

 

or protected by the DVD manufacturer.Therefore, make sure the DVD

plays according to your PARENTAL setting before you allow children

unlimited access to the Player or DVDs.

To prevent specific DVDs from playing, regardless of how you set the
