Abstract: A novel system and method for the dissemination of audio-visual program information such as, but not limited to advertisements, safety procedures, directions and/or menus. More particularly, the present invention relates to a low-cost alternative to a internet server or satellite based information disseminating system as a means for providing information to a targeted audience. The audio-visual program information dissemination system stores pre-programmed information on a digital video disc for subsequent dissemination on a plurality of individual display devices located in public and/or private venues which are fed a continuous stream of information for the targeted audience. The digitized audio-visual program information images are displayed intermittently, before cycling to the next image, creating an electronic billboard.
