Definitions
- any other light emitting source controllable by a processor 27 could be used.
- Such an indicator means has the advantage that it can be continuously illuminated while the codes are being detected without affecting the displayed picture and hence the viewer's enjoyment. Thus a parent can, at a glance, see that the codes are being detected while allowing full enjoyment of the programme.
- a limitation of such a device is that although it indicates that the classification codes are being received and detected it gives no indication as to what those classification codes are. Thus if the stored codes had been corrupted there would be no indication that possibly undesirable programmes were being viewed.
- region of origin codes An alternative use for the region of origin codes is to modify the effective codes for sexual, violent, distressing content or mature language depending on the source of the programme.
- region A it may be desired that the level of sexual content accepted is moderate level only because what is considered moderate in region A may be considered to be high in the region where the receiver is located.
- This code of changing may be programmed permanently into the receiver or may be settable by the user.
- Screen 18 is the final screen presented and confirms the choices which have been made by the user.
