Re: PIN-protected Media Centre



Nick, Marcus,

Thanks for the feedback. Is it best then to store ripped DVDs in two
directories i.e. "Kids / General" and "Certificate 12+"
or whatever
and then protect the shares via PIN codes, or is there another way?
Maybe a field in the movie or music tag that can be filtered-out?

I'm not too concerned (yet!) that they might hack-in and find out the
PIN, maybe as they get older though...

Thanks,

Tim.
