Stock 6disc DVD player
I was advised by my dealer that this unit will only play while parked. Is there a way to have video monitors installed in the headrests and enable the system to play DVD's while moving? Sorry if this has been answered.

mine plays while in motion.
Granted, I don't have monitor set up yet, but I can still listen as I drive.
I don't think that it would cut off if I added the monitor, since its only 2 wires, and not a 3rd for sensing if monitor was present.
Best bet is to find a DVD that auto starts when inserted (I can't guess the controls without a screen) and see if you get the movie audio while in motion.
(FYI, my copy of Full Metal Jacket plays while in motion)

in the write up section, there is an install for a monitor.... https://www.jk-forum.com/forums/jk-write-ups-39/my-full-dvd-monitor-write-up-part-1-a-3904/
my MyGig (different radio) shows video and audio while parked, If I put it in drive, the audio continues but the video stops.
