It is the DVD player, however, that follows those instructions to
"play" those tracks. ALWAYS. So it is the DVD player that one would
modify to gain control over such "programming".

Plain and simple.

Flag for FBI warning.

Flag for Macrovision enabling, which is ALSO a DVD player inserted
"video adjustment".

Said "flags" are "programming" cues, which are the very first thing the
PLAYER loads when it spools up the DVD.
