ABSTRACT:
An information provider apparatus, enabling a user to employ hyperlink selection from a displayed hypertext data page to obtain and play the contents of specific sets of multimedia data which are held in a data storage device, executes control of playing of a set based upon elapsed frame numbers of a video clip which forms part of the set, in conjunction with scenario data which have been predetermined for the set. The apparatus can be used in a network in which users of various client terminals can access multimedia data stored at a server computer, or can exchange electronic mail items each consisting of a set of multimedia data in conjunction with corresponding scenario data, or can post messages on a "notice board" hypertext page at the server computer, each message consisting of a set of multimedia data and corresponding scenario data, with other users of the network being able to access the posted messages by browsing selection.
