ipod doesn't show video

Purchased two Ipod Touch 4's for Christmas. Downloaded the digital copy of the movie Brave into Itunes and sync'd with both Ipods. Through Itunes it shows that the movie is on the Ipod, but I can not access the movie through the video icon or any other way. I sync'd the movie with my Iphone 4 and the novie is in the video icon and does play. The movie is a MP4 format. Why can I not see the movie in the video icon location and furthermore, why can't I find the novie for my kids to watch?

I've run into a similar issue, but not with a "Digital Copy" disc. We purchased/downloaded a movie via the iTunes store.

Details:

1. 4th Generation iPod Touch running iOS 6.1.5.

2. Did manual sync with iTunes to load a movie that was purchased via iTunes.

3. After the sync, iTunes shows the movie on the iPod Touch.

However, when opening "Video" on the iPod Touch, nothing is there and a search for the movie title yields nothing. We're puzzled.

Ah, figured it out. We had the parental control restrictions set to "Don't Allow Movies". Duh.

Here is the path from Settings:

General > Restrictions > Allowed Content: Movies
