Restricting playback by Parental Control

Some DVDs may have a parental level assigned to the complete disc or to certain scenes on the disc. This feature lets you set a playback limitation level.

The rating levels are from 1 to 8 and are country dependent. You can prohibit the playing of certain discs that are not suitable for your children or have certain discs played with alternative scenes.

2Press 34 to highlight a rating level for the disc inserted and press ENTER/OK.

To disable Parental controls and have all Discs play, select {8 ADULT}.

3Use the numeric keypad (0-9) to enter the six-digit password (see page 28 “Changing the Password”).

DVDs that are rated above the level you selected will not play unless you enter your six-digit password.

Helpful Hints:

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

Some DVDs are not encoded with a rating though the movie rating may be printed on the Disc cover. The rating level feature does not work for such Discs.

You can set the PBC to ON or OFF. This feature is available only on Video CD 2.0 with playback control (PBC) feature. For details, see page 16.
