rating or have been given a rating of None for TV Ratings, N/A or N/R
for Movies, or E (Exempt) for Canadian ratings can be blocked using
the Unrated Programs option.
Future Rating Region
You might notice an option in the Parental Controls menu that wasn't
there before. This is because broadcasters have the capability to add
a new rating system for TV programs. These ratings let you defi ne
additional parameters for parental controls. This option and its name
are dependent on the content acquired from the broadcaster.
Note: These ratings are available only if the broadcaster is
sending them.
