A director-controlled web server comprises a processing system, an interface, and a screen. Using the screen, the director selects a web site to provide content pages to participating browsers. The interface then receives refresh messages from the participating browsers and transfers the refresh messages to the processing system. The processing system generates responses with a refresh tag and the URL for the currently selected web site. The interface transfers the responses to the participating browsers. The combination of a new web site selection by the director and a refresh by the browser results in a new content page being displayed at the browser. The director-controlled web server may be configured to automatically select web sites, and to change the selection from one web site to another over time.

Director-controlled web session

A video-on-demand system transfers a control screen signal to a second communication system and receives a viewer control signal from the second communication system. The video-on-demand system transfers video signals to either a first communication system or the second communication system based on the viewer control signal. The second communication system uses less bandwidth to transfer the video signals than the first communications system. The control screen could be a web page that includes: 1) a video display menu with a selection of displays and bandwidths to display the video signals, 2) a video content menu with a video preview selection, and/or 3) a video display control menu comprising play, pause, rewind, fast forward, and stop. The video-on-demand system implements the control screen menu selections.
