FIG. 5 is a diagram illustrating a process of registering a question about multimedia contents according to an embodiment of the present invention.

5 is a flowchart illustrating a method of reproducing multimedia content according to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention. Referring to FIG. 5, a content reproduction interface (or a first content reproduction terminal) provided in a browser program provided in the first content reproduction terminal 185 (A content reproduction program provided in the multimedia contents reproducing unit 185), when the question data for the specific image data of the multimedia contents to be reproduced is registered through the question registration interface during the reproduction of the multimedia contents, The first content reproduction terminal 185 processes the multimedia data stored in the multimedia data storage unit 181 and provides at least one answer data corresponding to the question data to the answerer terminal 190. More specifically, Image data, question data and images The video data is extracted multimedia contents information and the playback time (or frame) it is for the process of registering the information.

Those skilled in the art will be able to deduce various methods for the question registration process for the multimedia contents by referencing and / or modifying FIG. 5, And the technical features of the present invention are not limited only by the method shown in FIG.

For example, FIG. 5 illustrates a question registration process for specific video data of multimedia contents. However, if a person skilled in the art is familiar with the present invention, referring to FIG. 5, The process of registering a question can be inferred, and the present invention is characterized in that it comprises all the above-mentioned methods of inferring.

In addition, as shown in FIG. 5, when the user registers the multimedia contents information and the reproduction time (or frame) information in the question registration process for the specific image data of the multimedia contents, It is possible to deduce an operation method that is confirmed from the content D / B 165 without receiving from the content reproduction terminal, but the present invention is characterized in that it includes all the methods of inferring.

Hereinafter, in FIG. 5, the first content reproduction terminal 185 shown in FIG. 1 is referred to as a "terminal" for the sake of convenience, and the content providing server 100 is referred to as a "server" for the sake of convenience.

Referring to FIG. 5, a content playback interface (or a content playback program provided to the terminal 185) provided as a browser program included in the terminal 185 through the multimedia content playback process shown in FIG. 3 or FIG. (500), the terminal determines whether a question registration of specific image data of the multimedia content is requested through the content playback interface (or a content playback program) (505).

According to an embodiment of the present invention, the terminal determines whether a question registration request event is generated in the content playback interface (or the content playback program) It is preferable to confirm whether the question registration for specific image data is requested.

If a request for a specific image data of the multimedia content is requested through the content playback interface (510), the terminal displays a question registration interface through the content playback interface (or a content playback program) And outputs it (515).

When reproducing multimedia contents through a content playback interface provided as a browser program included in the first content reproduction terminal 185 according to an embodiment of the present invention, A question registration area for registering question data for image data extracted from the multimedia contents in a predetermined area and outputting the question data to a predetermined area in the content reproduction area or outputting a question data And then extracts specific image data from the multimedia contents in the outputted question registration area and outputs question data for the extracted image data It is preferable to output the question registration interface to be input.

Alternatively, the content playback interface may include an event control (e.g., content control) for dynamically assigning a question registration area for registering question data on video data extracted from the multimedia content to a predetermined area near the content playback area for playing back the multimedia content Question registration control (= button control) included in a certain area near the playback area or a question registration control (= menu control) included in the pop-up menu displayed by clicking the left (or right) ), And dynamically allocates and outputs a question registration area for outputting the question registration interface in a predetermined area near the content reproduction area in response to a question registration event generated by the event control, By event control An overlay method question registration area for registering question data for image data extracted from the multimedia contents in the content reproduction area in response to a question registration event to be generated or outputting a pop- up type query registration area and outputting a question registration interface for extracting specific image data from the multimedia contents in the outputted question registration area and inputting question data for the extracted image data .

Alternatively, the content reproduction interface may be configured to assign and output a question registration area for registering question data for image data extracted from the multimedia contents in a predetermined area near the content reproduction area for reproducing the multimedia contents, An overlay method question registration area for registering question data for image data extracted from the multimedia contents in a predetermined area of the reproduction area, and outputting the overlay query registration area to the question registration area, And output a question registration interface for extracting specific image data and inputting question data for the extracted image data.

Alternatively, the content playback interface may include an event control (e.g., a content playback area) for dynamically assigning a question registration area for registering question data on video data extracted from the multimedia content in the content playback area for playing back the multimedia content A question registration control (= button control) included in the content control included in the content, or a question registration control (= menu control) included in the menu popped up by clicking the left (or right) button of the mouse in the content playback area, And outputs a question registration area for outputting the question registration interface to a predetermined area near the content reproduction area in response to a question registration event generated by the event control, The quality caused by An inquiry registration area of an overlap method for registering question data for image data extracted from the multimedia contents in the content reproduction area in response to the registration event is dynamically allocated and output or a pop- And outputting a question registration interface for extracting specific image data from the multimedia contents in the outputted question registration area and inputting question data for the extracted image data Do.

According to another embodiment of the present invention, when the multimedia content is reproduced by the content reproduction program provided in the first content reproduction terminal 185, the content reproduction program may be extracted from the multimedia content in a predetermined area near the content reproduction area An overlap method for registering a question registration area for registering question data with respect to image data and outputting it or registering question data for image data extracted from the multimedia contents in a predetermined area of the content reproduction area, And outputting a question registration interface for extracting specific image data from the multimedia contents in the outputted question registration area and inputting question data about the extracted image data .
