(DVD-Video only)
Movies on DVD discs may contain scenes not suitable
for children. Therefore discs may contain ‘Parental
Control’ information that applies to the complete disc or
to certain scenes on the disc. These scenes are rated
from 1 to 8 and alternative, more suitable scenes are
available on the disc. Ratings are country-dependent. The
‘Parental Control’ feature allows you to prevent discs
from being played by your children or to have certain
discs played with alternative scenes.
