Question / Help Video playback on hotkey?

I had a rather silly idea for my stream; I want a confetti hotkey!
So I want to be able to press (for example) Ctrl+T, then a video (I've already animated one I'm happy with, confetti shoots out, and it plays a sound) will play.

I've seen a video plugin that can play a video, but there doesn't seem to be a way to chroma-key it, or add a hotkey to play.
(the lack of chroma-key is okay, I rendered the video with alpha, so it has the same outcome)

Is there a way to play the video with a hot key? Or enable/diable a specific layer with a hot key?

Alternatively, I considered using a CLR Browser plug-in layer to play the video, but I don't know if hotkeys would work in that either.

And lastly, if I can find no help, I will have to create a custom program to play my video on demand, then capture and chroma-key...

Anyway, thanks for any help or insight in advance!
