Parental lock for MVP clients

[NI2O]

Hi All,

I'm sure many of you have deployed MVP1000's to your children's rooms. What would be a great addition I think is to add a parental lock feature on things such as certain movie folders and especially certain TV channels.

Here in the US we have the V Chip which most (but not all including Cartoon Network) providers honour. It would be great if we could get that into the MVP setup some how.

Can we read the V Chip info within GBPVR? Could V Chip be a useful and socially responsible addition to GBPVR?

I'm sure that there are other V Chip type systems elsewhere on the planet.

I did add some basic folder protection to mvpmc emulation mode a couple of months ago. I have received no comments on this whatsoever so I assume this is a very low priority.

You did?

Is it in the current gbpvr release? If so where?

Folder protection is a start but I'd really like to see channel protection too.

I didn't limit the logic to folders so you could filter on something like (for channel 22)

C:\temp\22-

which might work if the shortname matches.
