Techniques described herein enable parents to establish a child-protective "kids zone" on a DVR (104). According to one technique, a DVR (104) receives, from a parent, identities of DVD content items (106B) that the parent does not want children to view. The DVR (104) maps the identities to a kids zone. During times that the DVR (104) is set to operate in the kids zone operational mode, the DVR(104) prevents itself from presenting any content from DVD that are associated with the identities. At other times, during which the DVR (104) is not set to operate in the kids zone operational mode, the DVR (104) may allow itself to present DVD content that are associated with the identities.
L'invention concerne des techniques permettant à des parents d'établir une sécurité pour enfants "zone pour enfants" sur un DVR. Selon l'une des techniques, un DVR reçoit, d'un parent, des identités d'articles de contenu de DVD que les parents ne souhaitent pas que leurs enfants visualisent. Le DVR mappe les identités dans une zone pour enfants. Durant la lecture du DVR en mode zone pour enfants, le DVR empêche l'affichage de contenus de DVD associés à ces identités. En revanche, lorsque le DVR n'est pas réglé en mode zone pour enfants, il permet l'affichage de contenus de DVD associés à ces identités.
