Parental level control [DVD]
Films on pre-recorded DVD discs may contain scenes not suitable for
children. Therefore, some discs may contain 'Parental Control' rating
information that applies to the entire disc or to certain scenes on the
disc.
The appropriate scenes have filter values that reach from 1-8. If such a
scene is detected during playback, the filter value set on the DVD
recorder is compared to the scene. If the filter value is higher than the
setting, an alternative scene will be played (if available).
Most DVDs apply the rating to an entire DVD. Therefore, if certain
scenes exceed the rating you select, the entire disc will be blocked
from viewing.
