Many of our district desktop PCs come with a built-in DVD drive. If you happen to have a DVD of the movie you want to share, it's as easy as putting the disc in the drive.
However, the DVD needs to be read through a media player in order for it to work. What you will find on your desktop or within your apps list is VLC Player. You'll want to open this program and select DVD and "play" in order for your movie to boot up.
There are some district devices in the district that do not have a built-in DVD player. You'll find these on devices such as laptops and even a few desktops out there that don't have one. To remedy this, they sell external DVD players that connect via USB. A great resource for all your district needs, what you can get, and how you can get them would be through our Technology Coordinator. If you have any questions, comments, or concerns regarding VUSD District purchases and more, please contact Jim Wasielewski.
Insert the DVD into your optical drive, then launch VLC Media Player. Navigate to the 'Media' menu and select 'Open Disc.' Confirm that the disc type is set to 'DVD,' then click 'Play' to begin playback.
