We have been using a system to do this for the past 4 years at Ensworth. The
name of the software package is Firesign (http://www.firesign.net). This
allows us to schedule various segments to display on different displays at
different times. This year we worked with them along with our web site
designer/host Whipplehill to integrate the data from our website to the
displays. Now the displays show news, calendar events and athletics
information pulled directly from the website without double entry. The
system has worked great and requires little effort with the information
being pulled automatically.
If you have any other questions, please let me know.
