a client wants to get rid of an inhouse audio-visual system and run itunes and some software which can present media files to 2 large tvs in their bar.
what can someone suggest for an app that lets then play jpegs, movs, swfs, whatever from a folder or similar? something that could manage the files so that only particular ones played at certain times would be ideal. visual only.
any advice appreciated.

thanks mate, that's awesome.
any other simple app solutions that might be cheapish (under $100) that you know?
basically the client has the whole setup and really just needs something to play on a pc.
cheers, me

What devices do you currently have outputting to the TVs? A PC, or a DVD player or something?
One really cheap option would be to use media burning software to make a mixed media disc which can basically create a disc that can stream images as well as videos, and just chuck it in a DVD player. I think even Windows Movie Maker can put together shit like this into a single burnable file, providing all the individual file types is supported.
The other way to do it is to create a movie file out of all the images with set delays between the images (Nero can do this), then throw that movie file in with all your other video media and burn that.
Quick research didn't turn up any basic software that would happily push out static images and videos from one output sorry.
