Wanted: 15 minutes or so of video of a jukebox playing 45's

I'm working on a DWJukebox skin, and would like it to feature a window that shows a 45rpm record being selected and played, the next one selected and played, etc.....of about 15 minutes length.

If anyone has a jukebox with a nice mechanism that would be good for a landscape view of something such as this, with the camera stationary throughout, no zooming in and out, etc..., please let me know if you'd consider doing this for me.  The more it captures the actual spinning of the record, the better.  For that reason, I'm thinking an AMI jukebox might be a good candidate.

While DWJukebox cannot play a video, it is possible to have a video on the screen at the same time as a skin through the use of SMPlayer with that program set to always be on top, as I show here:



Yeah, it would be better if the video could be triggered when the song is selected, but that's not possible.  So I'd gladly settle for a video of mechanism doing it's thing and run it as a long loop.

BTW, there is no need for sound.

EDIT:  Here's another quick-and-dirty overlaying of the video that I just did, showing how DWJukebox remains fully functional with the video sharing the screen.  If you touch the video, that's a problem because it gets the focus and stops DWJukebox.  Touching anywhere other than the video gives the FOCUS back to DWJukebox, so that's not a serious problem.  More of a nuisance.

I'm doing this as I still hold out hope for some long video of a jukebox playing...
