Block MPAA Rating
The MPAA rating system uses the Motion Picture

main application is for movies. You can block the
categories by the following steps, and If you have
blocked the rating, you will receive a rating message
on the screen when you select the blocked program.
1. Select Block MPAA Rating and press ENTER.

categories that are “more restrictive”. If R category
has been blocked, then NC-17 and X will also be
automatically blocked.
