The present invention relates to a multimedia authoring method, and more specifically, even beginners can easily produce CD-Titles such as family albums and graduation albums in the production of educational videos simply by clicking the mouse, and simultaneously produce MPEG1 and MPEG4. It is about a multimedia authoring method that enables video CD production and Internet broadcasting.

In recent years, the rapid development of computer technology has made it easy to construct an environment in which multimedia documents can be used, and multimedia documents having excellent utility in terms of information transfer have been spotlighted as a medium for next-generation information sharing. However, the integration between the applications supporting each media is not properly performed, and a high level of skill is required in using the applications.

With the rise of the Internet, the authoring tool solution market is in the spotlight, and these solutions are not only used for business-to-consumer (B2C) e-commerce but also for e-commerce and portal sites. It is the foundation technology and core solution for building.

1 is a diagram for explaining communication between applications in a conventional authoring tool, reference numeral 1 denotes a client application, 2 and 3 denote OLE (Object Linking Embeded), and 4 denotes a server application. 5 denotes a DLL (Dynamic Link Library), and 6 denotes a structured storage.

As shown in FIG. 1, communication between the client application 1 and the server application 4 is made through OLE 2, 3 and DLL 5, the client application 1 being a server application. Create an object from (4). When editing the object thus created, the menus, toolbars, palettes, and other controls required from the server application 4 of the object are received, and the menus and controls existing in the client application 1 are temporarily replaced.

After working with the object, the original menus and controls defined in the client application 1 are restored. In this case, the OLE (2, 3) refers to one of the functions of exchanging data between a plurality of applications running in the window environment, and the application software is organically bundled to enable a high level of processing.

For example, voice data can be pasted onto a worksheet created by the table calculation software. When the icon pointing to the voice data on the worksheet is clicked, the software that created the voice data automatically moves to reproduce the voice data.

In addition, the DLL 5 refers to an operation link library, and means a library file in which independent objects are collected into one. Each application for Windows consists of a set of processing procedures based on the object. Objects operate independently and can be loaded and executed in memory only when needed. Therefore, when the DLL 5 is used, the memory occupied by the application is small, so that it is easy to use simultaneously with other window applications.

In addition, there are two conventional methods of presentation.

One way is to provide a script language to synchronize objects between scripts, and another way is to define the behavior in the dialog box for each object when and how it is presented. Time to appear, time to disappear).

In this case, the script language refers to a language for processing the order in which the software is executed. In terms of contents, the language is almost the same as the program, but the key or button is used to perform a sequence of operations in the table calculation software or hypertext. Will be assigned to.

However, in the process of authoring a presentation according to the prior art, the presentation writing using the script language has a different script language used for each application, so that the user has to re-learn the script language used by the application in order to use each application. There is a problem that gives.

In addition, there is a possibility of causing device competition with other dynamic information at the time of presentation of the dynamic information, and it does not provide an intuitive presentation authoring environment, which causes a lot of trial and error.
