Isn’t it possible to somehow play a DVD and watch it on iPad? I own a wonderful iPad. It is not some fancy iPad where I can write on it, etc. It is probably five years old at least, but it works wonderfully. I have an external cheap DVD player that works wonderfully. Also, is there anyway I can get that DVD player to plug into my iPad? I don’t want to rip or do anything illegal. I simply want to watch movies I own on a DVD player I own, but use the iPad as my television. You would think in today’s world that would somehow be possible but I don’t want to copy something onto the iPads drive for fun use iTunes to do such an such, I just want to plug my DVD into the iPad. Is there some sort of plug-in device that will help me to accomplish this or I am I totally out of luck? Thanks everyone.

iPad USB-C using Apple Ext DVD combo player I can plug and play using my external apple DVD combo burner player, on my iMac no problems, however even with the USB to USB-C converter the combo drive dosn’t do anything, it accepts DVDs and spins up, fine but the iPad just has no clue its there. I think it need an app or driver of some sort? Any ideas? I use this DVD a lot on my iMac it’s very handy.

Hey hirise09,

Thanks for using Apple Support Communities. While you can connect external storage devices, you're not able to connect a DVD player to an iPad. Just in case, here's more information on connecting other device types to your iPad: Connect external devices or servers with Files on iPad - Apple Support

Take care!
