Parental Control

From NMTWiki

Jump to: navigation, search
Applicable to the following NMT
Popcorn Hour NMT Models: A-100/A-110 A-200/A-210/C-200
There is currently no official support for parental control, e.g. filtering content not suitable for small children.

However, this can be achieved with alternate methods. Some media streaming servers like llink has a basic filtering functionality.

Another way to do it is to use a custom index.htm file, that auto-loads after boot the NMT boots.
Put the specific content in a dot-folder, a folder with the name beginning with a dot: .horror or .adult like the example below.

Add the following to your index.htm:

<a href="http://localhost:8088/app/player/video/action/videolist.php?M=%2FVideo%2F.adult" tvid="[your id]"/>

Insert a pin key code instead of "[your id]", like: "1234"
After this, by pressing the pin it will reveal the dot-folder .adult located on the NMT harddisk:

 http://localhost.drives:8883/HARD_DISK/Video/.adult

Note: to erase browsing history after you are done viewing the adult content, so it's not possible to press back-button and see previous content, press the Home-button.

Users can add hidden links on index.html pages, these allow access to mapped shows only through entering a PIN.
