Parental control (DVD only)
Movies on DVDs may contain scenes not suitable for
children. Therefore, discs may contain ‘Parental Control’
information that applies to the complete disc or to
certain scenes on the disc. These scenes are rated from 1
to 8, and alternative, more suitable scenes are available on
some discs. Ratings are country dependent. The ‘Parental
Control’ feature allows you to prevent discs from being
played by your children or to have certain discs played with
alternative scenes.
