Blu-ray players are being phased out in general pool classroom AV systems. While some rooms may still have Blu-ray players, they are being gradually decommissioned and will not be replaced if broken.
DVDs can still be played using the resident PC’s optical drive. Insert the DVD, open VLC media player, and select the PC as the source on the podium’s AV controls.
We recommend consulting with your department’s PSU library liaison if you plan to show films in class. To find your liaison, visit the Library’s Staff Directory page. To request the digitization of visual media, submit this Request to digitize visual media form.
For more information on using film in your classes, visit the Library’s Using Film in Courses: Policy and Options.
