Q: Why is there a charge to Activate TVGuardian® in my DVD Player or TV?
Prices have dropped so much that manufacturers are no longer willing to pay for new features like TVG. So, we came up with iActivate. We’ve convinced manufacturers and retailers that consumers are willing to pay for TVGuardian. Without iActivate, TVG would not be available at all in these products. Without your support, these types of family features will not be available at all in the future – even under iActivate. Therefore, it is extremely important that you show your support if you believe controlling profanity in your home is important.
Please Note:
- Please see the manual on how to use the TVGuardian features. Please Note: The TV Guardian features must be activated – $29.95 one-time fee.
- The TVGuardian feature will not work with DVDs distributed by Universal Studios. Universal Studios does not use closed-captioning on their DVDs, therefore, the TVGuardian feature will not work.
- See the TVGuardian for use with VCRs and Television.
- The closed-caption display feature, used when a phrase with profanity is muted, may not work in progressive scan mode.
A word about TV Guardian DVD Players with Progressive Scan and HDMI:
The TVG DVD player will support the component video (red, green and blue video) and HDMI connections. When using the player in progressive scan mode or an HDMI connection it will not display the replacement captions, but will mute the sound.
** The TV Guardian feature requires the movie be from North America (NTSC) and have closed-captioning encoded.
