I am looking to deliver lots of video lectures and wanted to see if there was an existing solution as a video player platform. It could be for pay, but ideally open source.
I like the Ted.com- elegant interface with large screen playback, and chapter-marking technology that lets users find/skip to key moments in lectures.
Let me know if you need more clarification. Thank-you.

Look at Viddler (http://www.viddler.com). You can put markers in the video progress bar indicating various chapters, and other supplemental information, such as lecturer names, etc. For an example of large sized playback with markers, check out http://tv.winelibrary.com.
