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.

Abstract

Système permettant de contrôler et de vérifier si un programme de télévision peut être regardé. Dans ce système un code de classification est envoyé en même temps que le signal vidéo, par exemple dans un paquet d'extension d'un signal de télétexte, et un décodeur (23) détecte les codes reçus et les envoie à un microcontrôleur (27). Un utilisateur autorisé peut entrer des codes de classification de programmes autorisées à l'aide d'une télécommande (28). Les codes représentant les classifications autorisées sont stockés dans une mémoire non volatile (29). Les codes reçus et les codes autorisés sont comparés dans le microcontrôleur (27) qui invalide les circuits vidéo (25) et/ou audio (32) si les codes reçus ne sont pas des codes autorisés. Un indicateur (38) est prévu pour indiquer si les codes de classification sont reçus et détectés.
