We don't use touchscreen capability, but we do use an iPod to deliver looped videos. We set the video(s) up in a playlist and set the thing to repeat all. This is fairly new for us (used in 2 exhibitions so far), but so far, so good!

(I > don't know if this is even possible.) We do this too. You need to make sure to find a DVD player with a repeat feature. This has to be started every morning by the person opening up. The only problem with the option is that the DVD players will wear out after a while. Our introductory video is set up this way, and since 2001 we have replaced the DVD player 4 times. There are, however, DVD players that are made for this type of repeated use - talk to some exhibit companies. > > > Are there other ways to deliver the videos?
