Leah,

You might consider using a solidstate video player.  These players play 
back mpeg2 to files stored on a flash card.

We have our FlashVideo players that may work for you.  Following is a 
link to infromation on one of our FlashVideo players:

If you would like more information, please feel free to call or email me 
directly.
