Hello !

I'm looking for a very special video player that will allow user watching video to see a bar at the top of the windows with some corporate information on it (corporate logo, time, corporate msg scrolling).

User does not interract with the computer playing the files, it is connected to a plasma TV and playing in loop.

You could use a piece of software called 'AutoPlay Media Studio', which would enable you to create your own video player (using WMP source) however you wanted it to look, scrolling message, logos, whatever. You can use this software to make a standalone .exe file with the video etc embedded. Might work for you.
