This feature will not limit viewing if the disc manufacturer did not code the disc.

VCD, SVCD, CD have no level indication, so parental control has no effect on these type of discs. This also applies to most illegal DVDs.

Some DVDs are not coded with a rating though the movie rating may be printed on the disc cover. The rating level feature does not prohibit play of such discs.
