Table 4-2 describes the TV ratings and content categories. For more information, visit
http://www.fcc.gov/parents/parent_guide.html.
• Movie Rating: Select Movie Rating from the Parental Control menu to block movies
carrying a given rating, to prevent children from watching movies that are deemed
inappropriate. These ratings have been established by the Motion Picture Association of
America (MPAA) to help parents and other caregivers determine if a movie is suitable for
young viewers.
To block movies carrying a given rating, press the right-arrow button to require the PIN
code to be entered to view a movie with that rating. A lock icon (
) appears to indicate
that the restriction is active.
For more information on movie ratings, please visit http://www.mpaa.org/movieratings/.
• Unrated: To allow or block access to unrated content, select Unrated from the Parental
Control menu and select Allow or Block. Press ENTER to confirm your choice.
•Change PIN: The default PIN for accessing the parental controls or bypassing content
restrictions is 0000. Vidikron recommends changing this to something less obvious.
Letterbox Mode: Select Letterbox Mode from the Setup menu to change the appearance of
movies in Letterbox format.
When you select Standard, the original Letterbox format of the source is maintained. Black
bars appear above and below the active image area.
When you select Cinema Fill, a 2.35 image is stretched vertically in both directions to fill a
16:9 display.
