I share my gizmo streaming with my 9 year old daughter.
Some of the films I have are 15 or 18 certificates. Is there any way I can restrict what she is able to stream?

short answer..nope, though...

you can filter out your files via "custom views-set rules for display", so you can have one view and your daughter another, but that does not protect them in any way..

you can protect the stream it self, and have one instance of MC 15 for your daughter, and MC 16 for yourself. but then you need 2 libraries..

there is a access control filter in MC, but that protects the files from yourself as well, and it works ok in standard view, however it does not work with gizmo or other web client when you search, so if you have "stuff" anyone can check all your files.. quite good to know  ;D
