Hi,
I am working on virtual halloween window decorations, similar to AtmosFX. I am using a projector to project on a piece of scrim on a window. Is there any way I could use a pressure or motion sensor switch to trigger the video to change to a different video. When someone triggers the switch, it plays a different video. I've been thinking about wiring a switch to a wireless a/b switch to trigger it. Is there any better way to do this? Is it also possible to fade the video when the switch is triggered?


Thanks

Cheapest would probably be to hack either the buttons on remote control or buttons on the DVD player. Hi Rez Designs has a really nice digital media player device that is capable of triggering video and works really well.

I use these for my video projects when I need to trigger multiple video files. http://www.frightprops.com/video-vi...remium-hd-triggerable-video-player-33774.html

I watched this before and tracked it down for your question about triggering video. This isn't a cheap idea, but it looks very effective.

And here's another idea that uses a less expensive Roku.
