Abstract: Disclosed are a method and an apparatus for rendering outlines of multimedia character images for rendering the outlines. The method consists of: (a) detecting parameter values that include a screen width, a two-dimensional screen point, a three-dimensional view point, and a field of view on both ends of the screen width from a position of a user, which are associated with the character to be displayed on the screen from the driven multimedia contents; (b) calculating positional information on an x-axis direction of the character for a two-dimensional screen, on which the character is displayed, based on the parameter values; (c) calculating outline thickness factor of the character in three dimensions, based on the positional information of the x-axis direction of the character on the two-dimensional screen; and (d) performing and processing an outline rendering on the character based on the calculated outline thickness.

Abstract: Disclosed is a method for capturing a directX moving picture. The method consists of (a) allowing the control unit to generate a multisampled rendertarget surface of a moving picture using an anti-aliasing technique for a capturing target moving picture of the directX multimedia contents in a buffer; (b) allowing the control unit to detect the capturing target moving picture using the anti-aliasing technique, which is provided in a back-buffer by executing the directX multimedia contents and copy and temporarily store the detected capturing target moving picture to and in the multisampled rendertarget surface; (c) allowing the control unit to output the temporarily stored capturing target moving picture on the basis of an FIFO method when the capturing target moving picture is stored in the multisampled rendertarget surface at a reference value or higher; and (d) allowing the control unit to convert and store the output capturing target moving picture.
