Umm...I believe that after a period of time, it goes back to "no
password entered", but will not force a return to the default state
unless you exit the video browser and come back in.

Royce, my other question is when does it reset your videos list?  Upon
starting the front end, or upon entering the Video Manager.  If the
latter, you can still use Parental Controls to keep everyone else from
entering the Manager.

Also, let me look into the code a bit...I may be able to code up a
"reset to default after viewing a video" or somesuch.  Are you up to
compiling your own from source?  If so, lemme look at patching...
