Password protect a media player?

Skerries · 2015-07-30 08:08:06

I have ordered a media player for my friend and I want to set up two folders and password protect one. He has kids so I was hoping to password protect one of the folders so the kids wouldn't have access to the non age appropriate stuff do you know if this is possible on a media player or can I do it on the hard drive…

do you know if this is possible on a media player or can I do it on the hard drive itself?

Well the media player has its own basic OS so I'd imagine it would have to be done through that (if the option is there)
