Filter function and parental
control (DVD-Video discs only)
Movies on pre-recorded DVD-Video discs may contain
scenes not suitable for children. Some of those discs may
contain “Parental control” rating information that applies to
the entire disc or to certain scenes on the disc.The rating
information on the disc is country dependent.The levels
reach from 1–8:
– 1: Recommended as acceptable for viewers of all ages.
– 2: Reserved
– 3: Parental guidance suggested.
– 4: Material is unsuitable for children under age 13.
– 5: Reserved
– 6: Recommended that parents restrict children under 17
from viewing or allow to view only when supervised
by a parent.
– 7: Not recommended for children under age 17
– 8: For adults only
You can set a filter value on the DVD recorder system. If
during playback a scene that contains a “Parental control”
rating information is detected, the set filter value on the
DVD recorder system is compared to it. For example, if a
filter value of 5 is set on the DVD recorder system, only discs
with a “Parental control” rating of a lower or equal level (1, 2,
3, 4 and 5) will play. If the scene’s rating is higher (e.g. 8) than
the set filter value, an alternative scene (if available) will be
played. If there is no alternative scene available, playback is
stopped and the 4-digit code has to be entered again.
