While day dreaming what my own custom built pinball machine would look like I discovered this "Triggerable Digital Video Player".

It works a lot like the MP3 Trigger that Betelgeuse used in his Ghost Busters pin only with video clips.

It can play 8 videos with sound, 1 background looping video and 7 triggerable videos.

I thought some of you may be interested in it for your projects.

I found more Triggerable Digital Video Players form a company called Brightsign.

Brightsign Products.

They are actually intended for use as interactive signage and kiosk displays, but have an number of features that could be useful for a custom pinball machine.

It is a stand alone solid state unit that supports Full HD videos, images, audio, HTML5, streaming content, 3D content, Live Text, and media feeds.
I wonder if someone could program a pin in html5?

Input can come from a GPIO Port (8 bi-directional), keyboard or mouse.
I wonder if you could plug in an IPAC in place of the keyboard?

I figured I would share what I found with the modders on the site.

Oh, and older models can be found on ebay relatively cheap.

Later,
