  <p>It has a playlist module --> that's your 'queue'. It has a repeat playlist feature --> that's your loop. And you can add/remove/shuffle the entries in the playlist during playback.

  Any decent software media player can do this. I'd recommend [Potplayer](https://potplayer.daum.net/).
  
  It has a playlist module --> that's your 'queue'. It has a repeat playlist feature --> that's your loop. And you can add/remove/shuffle the entries in the playlist during playback. Potplayer can display still images but it defaults to a duration of 10 seconds. Not aware if that can be changed. You can duplicate the image entry in the playlist to have a play duration in multiples of 10 seconds. And you can get a custom duration by using ffmpeg to create a video of the still image like this:
  
  ```
  ffmpeg -loop 1 -i imagefile -t 01:45 imagevideo.mp4
  
  ```
  
  (1 minute, 45 seconds in the above example).
  
  Use the 32-bit static build of ffmpeg from [here](http://ffmpeg.zeranoe.com/builds/).
  
  The other logging/auditing features are probably not possible with regular media players out of the box. Digital signage softwares probably have them.
