Locking or Unlocking Specific Discs

Not all DVDs are coded with rating information or Parental Control levels. You may choose to specifically lock or unlock a Disc by choosing Play once or Play always. This way, you can disable viewing regardless of the rating of the DVD. You will need to know your 4-digit code.

The DVD Player can memorize Lock/Unlock settings for 120 Discs. A Disc is memorized when you select Play Always. Playing an unlocked Disc will place it at the top of the list. When the list is full and a new Disc is added, the last Disc in the list will be removed from the list.
