If there's a Mac on your network that does have a drive, open its Sharing preferences and turn on DVD sharing.
You have another option, which is to share a remote disc drive. If your Mac doesn't have an optical drive you can always add an external one connected over USB, and Apple's own is £65, with third-party models somewhat cheaper. In the System Preferences > CDs and DVDs section you can tell your Mac whether or not to open this automatically when you load a DVD disc.ĭVD Player is quite fully featured and supports HD, though not Blu-ray discs. If your Mac has an optical drive then it will be able to play DVDs and will come with the DVD Player app.
