    AirPlay a DVD Video

    AirPlay can be used to display any content from your Mac laptop with one exception - video from DVDs. If you attempt to AirPlay a DVD using the built-in DVD player on a Mac you will see a checkerboard effect on the video output and the video will not be displayed on the screen.

    This inability to AirPlay DVDs is not a technical limitation of AirPlay, but due to copyright protections (DRM) that the Movie Industry places on Apple disallowing DVDs to be displayed or "streamed" using AirPlay.

    However, there is a workaround available to show DVDs over AirPlay using the VLC Media Player, which is installed on all College Macs (staff and student). This lesson will explain how to use VLC to display DVDs using AirPlay from a Mac.
