<p>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. </p> <p>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. </p> <p>However, there is a workaround available to <strong>show DVDs over AirPlay using the VLC Media Playe</strong>r, 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.</p>
