If you are simply looking for a different media playing software, I would suggest VLC. By default, it will show the filename but you can turn that off in Tools -> Preferences -> Subtitles/OSD and untick "Show media title on video start."
Otherwise, if you're looking to remove your laptop out of the mix entirely, Amazon sells portable media players in the $40-50 range. Many people on this subreddit seem to recommend the Micca Speck G2.
I've been using a frosted shower curtain liner for the past few years and it's been working great. Gaffers tape to secure tightly to the wall and project from behind.
Awesome! That's good to know. I assume it connects to the projector via USB? I was actually looking at one of these multimedia players also. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01CCRYIN8/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_awdb_imm_NW1Z32NWSAW2H8AF9VJ3 Do you by chance have any experience with these?
I ordered this from amazon and will test it in about a week or so. Only reason I went with white is because it was available via prime shipping and was $18 for the 5 yard!
I can report back after I test it

It's 720p native, but with the 15% off they are offering it's under $70. still seems worth for halloween projections.
In my experience, most projectors adhere to the universal (1/4”) thread size. If your projector is different, you can look into an adapter for the mount like this:
I also just looked at this https://www.amazon.com/Projector-COOAU-Support-Speakers-Compatible/dp/B07Y328W16/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_product_top?ie=UTF8
according to reviews it is 720 native and 4800 lumens , although I am not sure if I am just being uninformed
I might order that or this

and give them a test run I can always replace them with amazon if they are not working well
It's the CiBest W13 projector. I got it from Amazon. I'll share the link below. About 8 foot distance makes around an 80 inch viewing area.
