Helpful Hints:
– Some DVDs are not encoded with a rating though the
movie rating is printed on the disc jacket. The rating level
feature does not work for such discs.
– If the player’s parental level is set below 8, only discs with a
lower or equal level will play. For example, if the player is set to
5, only discs with ratings of 5, 4, 3, 2 and 1 will be played.
Higher rated scenes will not be played unless an alternative
that has the same rating or lower is available on the disc. For
example, consider a disc that generally is suitable for most
audiences, and it is rated at level 2 for the most part. However,
in the middle, there are also scenes rated at 5 (not suitable for
children).
