rating table has been downloaded to the TV, it remains in the TV until it is factory
reset, and you can configure blocking based on the new ratings.
New Region Rating Tables can have independent rating levels, or rating levels that
interact in the same ways as the built-in US TV and MPAA Movie ratings.
Tip:
If your TV downloads a new Region Rating Table, you’ll have to experiment with
its settings to understand how to use it.
Blocking based on Canadian English ratings
Canadian-English language and third-language programs that are broadcast in
Canada are rated by the Action Group on Violence on Television, or AGVOT. TV
broadcast signals carry rating data that enables parental controls to block programs
that parents don’t want others to view based on content containing violence,
language, sex, or nudity. The ratings are:
• C – Children under 8 years
• C8 – Children 8 years and older
• G – Generally suitable for all age groups
• PG – Parental guidance suggested for viewers under 14 years
• 14+ – Generally not suitable for viewers under 14 years
• 18+ – Generally not suitable for viewers under 18 years
Blocking content with a particular rating also blocks content with a higher rating, and
unblocking content with a particular rating also unblocks movies with a lower rating.
To block programs based on AGVOT ratings:
1. From the Home screen menu, navigate to Settings > Parental controls, and
then enter your parental control PIN.
2. In the Parental controls screen, navigate to TV tuner > Canadian English
ratings.
3. Select the rating level you want to block. You need only select one rating level,
and all higher levels are automatically blocked.
