Same.
The way I've solved that is by using a Flash front end that sends data
through the serial port to Alcorn McBride or Technovision video
players. The former are rock solid 24/7, high operating temperature
range, high datarate capable, seamless loops and play lists, well
documented, and run forever. Technovision HD players are 1/6th the
cost, less capable, have a .3 second blackout during search, but also
run forever. Technovision devices are much smaller, which is sometimes
useful in space challenged installations.
Have had both running in museums continuously for more than 10 years.
When these installs fail, it's almost always a PC hard drive isssue.
For us it's problematic since the installations may be 12 time zones
distant. That problem is going away since we've been using SSDs for the
last couple years.
