Abstract

A method of providing a content guide includes receiving a request for a content guide. The request for the content guide is transmitted to a web server. Thereafter, the content guide is received from the web server. Further, the content guide is modified according to one or more parental controls after determining that the one or more parental controls are enabled. The method also includes retrieving the one or more parental controls from a database within a set top box server before modifying the content guide. The one or more parental controls can prevent one or more programs from being available at a television coupled to the set top box at least partially based on a rating associated with the one or more program. Further, the content guide is modified to delete information associated with the one or more programs not available at the television.
