Setting the Parental Control: Cyberlink PowerDVD User's Guide

After installing PowerDVD, the default operation mode is a single-user mode that grants you the privilege to access all levels of DVD titles. PowerDVD's Parental Control configuration restricts viewers' contents similar to the one imposed by movie theater studios. Provided below is a ratings' guide and instructions for setting multi-user modes to restrict access privileges:

1. Call up the Express Menu and select Parental Control or go to the Control Area and click on Configuration > Parental Control.

2. Select Administration.

3. Click on Add User.

4. Fill in the proper fields and create a password. Then, select Unlimited in the Maximum Parental Level field. Click OK.

5. A dialog box will appear after completing the first step. The next step is to add users and limit their access accordingly. Repeat steps 3-7 from above to add more users.
   

   CAUTION: The initial user will be identified as the default administrator with the sole right to add, delete and edit users' privileges. If the administrator does not have unlimited access, some higher-rated DVDs titles will be inaccessible. Administrators should select the unlimited access option.

6. The next time a DVD title with parental control restrictions is inserted, users will be requested to login. After startup, this dialog box will appear. Type in your name and the correct password and click OK to begin DVD playback.

Please read all restrictions and disclaimers.
