Mechanical Switch and Electronics to Run a Picture Frame

I'm a photographer - definitely not an electronics guy.

I am looking to be able to control a digital frame or small HD TV with a mechanical switch. I wan the switch to play different slide slows or different folders on an SD drive.

I would like it to all be some type of self contained unit - I don't want to run it from a computer. Ideally I would like to build this with off the shelf parts. Ideally the switch will be mechanical and not high tech looking.

Any advise on how to go about this project would be very much appreciated.

Thank you.

Media reader....

Thanks, Dave.

After a little research last night I was thinking a media reader does a lot of what I need. I'm wondering if that can be the base and can be modified in some way.

My preference would be to hire someone to do the electronics part.
