When inserting a DVD disc, there is a
window shown on the screen that
requires entering 4 characters password,
why?
It is because that the current disc has
“Parental Control” level, and the
player’s parental level is set below the
level of the disc, you should enter the
correct password to play the disc
normally.
! NOTE:
For how to set the “Parental
Control” level, please refer to
“SETUP\LOCK” in the following
page.
ATTACHMENT: PARENTAL CONTROL
DVD discs have a parental level assigned to the
disc. The range of parental controls is from 1 to 8.
The player can be set in a similar way. If the
player’s parental level is set to 8 it will play all
discs. If the player’s parental level is set below 8,
only discs with a lower or equal parental level will
play.
For example if the player is set to 5, only discs
with parental control ratings of 5, 4, 3, 2, & 1 will
play. To play a higher rated disc you must change
the player’s rating to a higher number.
For example, consider a disc that generally is
suitable for most audiences, and is rated as level 2
for the most part. However in the middle there are
also scenes rated at 5 & 7 (not suitable for
children).
Alternative scenes with lower rating are included.
The player plays the highest rated scene that the
parental setting allows.
A section of the disc can have several different
sequences that vary in parental control level. In the
above example of a disc with parental control, the
player will show a different section depending on
the parental control level set in the player’s menu.
In this way parents can control the content of films
and there is no indication that any censorship has
occurred.
The meaning of the levels 1 to 8 varies depending
upon the country and the type of content on the
disc.
The parental control levers are:
Unlock
1 Kid
safe
2 G
3 PG
4 PG
13
5 PG
R
6 R
7 NC
17
8 Adult
The factory password of the parental control is
“3351”.
