Your audience sends text messages to MuVChat using their regular texting service. Or any audience member with an iPhone can download and use the iOS MuVChat texting app which works exclusively with MuVChat and doesn't require a texting plan. The final option is to use a Windows computer and the Windows MuVChat Texting app
MuVChat works with any movie on a DVD. MuVChat can alos be used with other forms of media - live TV, Powerpoint, etc.
Some DVDs won't automatically start the movie. They show trailers or display the DVD menu. If this happens, you'll need to use your mouse to click the Play option on the actual video menu.

Before starting MuVChat, use Windows "extend desktop" option.
Every message is run through a sophisticated filtering algorithm that's been built over the many years MuVChat has been running. After a message is filterd, the default behavior is to automatically present the message on screen. If you want more control, you can run in Message Monitoring mode where an operator sees every message before it appears on screen and decides which ones to show and which ones to delete.
You need a Windows PC with a DVD drive and the MuVChat software. Click the link under the Windows icon to get the free software. Make sure your computer is connected to the internet and after installing the software and inserting a DVD, run MuVChat. MuVChat plays the DVD, collects the text messages from the internet, and displays them through a single projector.

My teens had a really great time and they definitely want me to host another one.
Everything worked great and the teens really enjoyed the texting. They were all eager to know when the next movie with MuVChat would be, which seems like a good response!
...it was great! They all got right into it...The movie was awful and as I watched I thought 'Oh no, everyone is going to leave' but not a single person left. They stayed to the end, texted to the end, they even lingered afterwards, and a few stayed late to talk about 'the next time.'
It was very user friendly!
It was a brilliant success for us.
