ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for controlling the reproduction of multimedia includes an input unit for receiving a SMIL document, a SMIL analyzer for analyzing the SMIL document and generating a DOM tree based thereon, a control table generator for generating a predetermined control table with reference to the DOM tree and a media reproducing unit for reproducing a media data of the SMIL document. The apparatus also includes a controller for controlling the media reproducing unit with reference to the control table. A method for controlling reproduction of multimedia also analyzes a SMIL document. Through the apparatus and method, the multimedia data is effectively controlled in a limited resource system in which a multi-processing is not supported.
