This solved the problem for me. You need to uninstall Origin you won't lose any game info from other games in Origin so don't worry about that. Restart the autorun from disc and let it reinstall Origin and download the update for Origin. If you tried to start downloading BF4 you can cancel that. Then restart the autorun to begin installing BF4 from disc. Hope this helps.

This DOES work!! I made the mistake of moving Origin's installation directory to another drive (because I was running out of space in the original drive) and BF4 wouldn't install from the disk.

I uninstalled origin using the origin uninstaller .exe file in its folder and then reinstalled it and it seems to automatically detect the game in my DVD drive and starts installing(not downloading) immediately.

This worked for me as well.  Simply uninstall, reinstall origin, update it, cancel download of bf4, auto start from disc and wham.  It just starts copying from disc!

thank you dude your great

After you have installed a fresh clean copy of disc,to get it working in origin you have to hover over where it says origin in the top left corner click it,select appliction settings,then select installs and saves at the top,where it says game libray location click on change,select the folder where you installed the game,then change the legacy game installers,select change folder go back to where you installed the game select the origin game folder open it select installer folder once you have done that you will get a message saying replace and delete ok it,then select my games click on the game then it will update it and ask you where you want your game saves choose your preference cloud or system,it then go to battle log and then choose campain or which ever you want to start and the game will start,hope this works for you worked for me,trying for a week to play and now sucsess happy gaming 🙂
