Can’t find old video

• Hello,
  I’ve been looking without success for an older EEVBlog video
  about a promotional media player that was made cheaply,
  and mounted on some card, as a promotional item for a product.
  
  IIRC there was mentioned that some people hacked them to
  play arbitrary video content.
  
  Any help with a link or better description of the item in question
  would be appreciated.

• Thanks That might be the problem. I didn’t remember it bing part of a mailbag, but it makes sense.

• Ah cool, thanks
  That’s close, but it was a little different, and mainly white.

• Wasn't there an ARM-based video player embedded in cardboard, played a drug ad or something for a doctor's office? I can't find the video, though.

  That's sounding familiar - and more recent than #331, too.

• IIRC Dave specifically said they have been hacked by hobbyists. I have a friend who is chasing some to be made for a company.
  There are greeting cards which fit the bill, but the cardboard would have to be custom printed.
