Movies on DVD discs may contain scenes not suitable for children.
Therefore discs may contain ‘Parental Control’ information which
applies to the complete disc or to certain scenes on the disc.
These scenes are rated from 1 to 8 and alternative, more suitable

The ‘Parental Control’ feature allows you to prevent discs from being
played by your children or to have certain discs played with alternative
scenes.
