Hi Matthew, For a very small investment you can use media players with push button controls to activate video selections on demand. Visit www.technovision.com for solutions and call them with your needs and they'll configure what you need for much less than $1000 total. Truly reliable hardware and a great support team in Steve Dougall, the owner.
Thanks, hope this is helpful.

The issue is, we want to avoid playing it in a continuous loop during all open hours (our attendance does not warrant it yet). Does anyone have experience building a simple TV kiosk that allows the visitor to play a video clip at the push of a button? We already have a flat screen TV, DVD player/laptop. Any ideas are appreciated? Thank you to you all.
