When programmed by the viewer, a TV with AutoLockTM can respond to the content advisories and block program content that may be found objectionable (such as offensive language, violence, sexual situations, etc. ). This is a great feature to censor the type of viewing children may watch. Over the next few pages you'll learn how to block channels and certain rated programming. [. . . ] Be careful not to leave nonmoving images on screen for extended periods of time, or to display the same images on screen too frequently, because subtle ghost images can be left on the picture tubes. Sources of stationary images may be DVD disks, laser disks, video games, CD-i disks, videotapes, digital television boxes, broadcast channels, cable channels, satellite channels, and others. Here are some examples of stationary images (this is not an all-inclusive list; you may encounter others in your viewing): · DVD menus--listings of DVD disk content · Letterbox black bars--shown at the top and bottom of the TV screen when a wide screen (16:9) movie is viewed on a TV with standard (4:3) aspect ratio. · Video-game images and scoreboards · Television station logos--present a problem if they are bright and stationary; moving or low-contrast graphics are less likely to cause uneven aging of the picture tube · Stock-market tickers--presented at the bottom of the TV screen · Shopping channel logos and pricing displays--bright and shown constantly or repeatedly in the same location on the TV screen. 35 GLOSSARY OF TERMS Auto Programming · The procedure of adding or deleting channel numbers into the Television's memory circuits.
