How to properly connect 6 monitors via twisted pair and router?

Hello dear. There was a task for the solution of which I do not have enough knowledge in the field of building networks. So,
given:
6 screens (that is, TVs) > connected by twisted pair to 6 ports of the router (each to a separate port, respectively) > which is connected by one wire to another router
task: It is
necessary to manage locally (or remotely, if possible) from one computer displayed content on each screen separately. Content type - static images.
For clarity: 6 monitors hang at the catering point, you need to display different pictures from the menu on each. Now this is solved very elegantly (no): stupidly in each screen there is a flash drive with one picture. You need to somehow get away from this scheme and start displaying these same pictures locally or remotely.
Please help with the direction of digging and which way to look. As far as I understand, my option is a DLNA server on the local computer?
UPD.: LG 32SL5B-B TVs - according to the descriptions, they are prof. panels with built-in media players. As it turned out, they are all already connected to the Internet, but here’s the ambush, I couldn’t launch something like smartTV using regular means, although I assume that since there is an Internet, there should be a function for opening sites, etc.

Well, there are different options...
1) If the TV supports viewing pictures from some network resources (ftp, http, smb), you can open them. True, when changing the picture, it will be necessary to click on the remote to update the picture.
2) TVs probably support IPTV, you can make a simple video from one picture and broadcast it to the network with some VLC / ffmpeg as multicast.
3) If there is no IPTV, take a regular IPTV set-top box, launch a stream from Multicast to it, as I wrote above, and distribute it through coke as an analog or digital signal to TVs.
4) Put them on the forehead and power them in parallel from DVI / VGA, all from one cord.
5) It is possible and dlna, it is convenient if all TVs are of the same model. Option is no different from option 2 in terms of equipment composition.
6) Print the picture in a good printing house and hang it on monitor screens)
