 Correct, it doesn't rely solely on the database, but instead on the content
and just gets info like coverfiles and such from the database.
I've never seen any examples of parental controls done via upnp, so
if you can point me to "free" apps and clients that do I'm more than willing
to look at implementing something like that.

 Nope, it's on by default with no ability to restrict what it will show other
than not having files there of course. (For the readers you can disable it in trunk
as well as control how often it updates it's list of videos).

 No, currently there are no settings to behave that way.
