We currently have over a dozen of the Pioneer DV7400's playing which 
we use with Museum Technology Source's DVD controllers. These work 
great, in the last 5 years we've only sent 2 out for repair. The 
DVD's do need to be authored correctly to work with the controllers. 
The DVD players also have an auto repeat feature if you don't need 
buttons to access different chapters.

We've just started using the MedeaWiz mpeg players so I don't know 
how they'll hold up yet.
