Video playback method and device

Technical Field

This disclosure relates to the field of video playback technology, and in particular to a video playback method and apparatus.

Background Technology

With continuous technological advancements and evolving user needs, in various video playback applications, windowed video playback is a common solution for users to "watch and search simultaneously," and it's also an effective way to extend video playback time on video platforms. However, the activation rate of windowed video playback within applications is generally low, and there are no convenient methods to guide users to use windowed mode. Therefore, providing a user-friendly method for playing videos in a windowed mode is a pressing technical problem that needs to be solved.

Summary of the Invention

In view of this, the present disclosure proposes a video playback method and apparatus.

According to one aspect of this disclosure, a video playback method is provided, the method comprising:

If an exit gesture is detected during the display of the application's video details page, a small window will be displayed above the video details page.

Exit the video details page and proceed to the next screen of the application using the exit gesture.

If the small window mode is triggered based on the detected gesture operation during the exit of the video details page interface, the small window will continue to be displayed in the currently displayed interface, and the target video will be played in the small window according to the playback progress of the target video in the video details page interface.

This allows users to choose whether to play the video in a small window while exiting the video details page of the application. The user operation is simple and convenient, allowing users to watch the target video simultaneously in a small window while browsing the next screen of the application. In particular, displaying the small window while exiting the video details page can effectively guide users to use the small window playback function, preventing users from missing this function due to unfamiliarity or inconvenience. Especially when switching screens within the application, users can conveniently choose to play the target video in the video details page in a small window or choose to refuse small window playback as needed, enriching the user operation functions during screen switching within the application and allowing users to flexibly choose according to their own needs.

In one possible implementation, the method further includes:

Before exiting the video details page, if a gesture operation on the small window is detected that meets the triggering conditions, it is determined that the small window mode has been triggered.

In one possible implementation, the triggering condition includes: the endpoint of the gesture operation is located within the trigger range of the small window and the stopping time within the trigger range exceeds a preset time.

In one possible implementation, the method further includes:

Before the pop-up mode is triggered, a pop-up selection reminder is displayed in the pop-up window. This reminder prompts the user to select pop-up mode to continue playing the target video. In this way, the user can confirm that they can play the target video in pop-up mode through the reminder, serving as a guide for users unfamiliar with or unaccustomed to pop-up playback.

In one possible implementation, the pop-up selection reminder also serves to remind the user of how to trigger the pop-up mode. This allows the user to determine how to quickly trigger the pop-up mode based on the reminder.

In one possible implementation, the method further includes: upon determining that the pop-up mode has been triggered, displaying a pop-up playback reminder in the pop-up window, the reminder prompting the user to stop the gesture operation to play the target video in pop-up mode. This allows the user to intuitively determine whether pop-up mode has been triggered based on the pop-up playback reminder, facilitating a timely response.

In one possible implementation, the next interface includes either a homepage interface or a search results interface. Thus, when the pop-up mode is triggered, the user can watch the target video in a pop-up window while continuing to browse the homepage interface or the search results interface.

According to another aspect of this disclosure, a video playback device is provided, the device comprising:

The small window display module is used to display a small window on top of the video details page if an exit gesture operation is detected during the display of the application's video details page interface;

The interface exit module is used to exit the video details page interface and enter the next interface of the application based on the exit gesture operation;

The video playback module is configured to, if the small window mode is triggered based on the detected gesture operation during the process of exiting the video details page interface, continue to display the small window in the currently displayed interface, and play the target video in the small window according to the playback progress of the target video in the video details page interface.

In one possible implementation, the device further includes:

The trigger detection module is used to determine that the small window mode has been triggered if a gesture operation on the small window is detected that meets the trigger conditions before exiting the video details page interface.

In one possible implementation, the triggering condition includes: the endpoint of the gesture operation is located within the triggering range of the small window and the duration of stay within the triggering range exceeds a preset duration.

In one possible implementation, the device further includes:

The selection reminder display module is used to display a small window selection reminder in the small window before the small window mode is determined to be triggered. The small window selection reminder is used to remind the user to select the small window mode to continue playing the target video.

In one possible implementation, the small window selection reminder is also used to remind the user of the triggering method of the small window mode.

In one possible implementation, the device further includes:

The playback reminder display module is used to display a small window playback reminder in the small window when it is determined that the small window mode has been triggered. The small window playback reminder is used to remind the user to stop the gesture operation so that the target video can be played in the small window mode.

In one possible implementation, the next interface includes a homepage interface or a search results interface.

The beneficial effects of the video playback device described above are the same as those of the video playback method described above, and will not be repeated here to avoid redundancy.

According to another aspect of this disclosure, a video playback apparatus is provided, comprising: a processor; a memory for storing processor-executable instructions; wherein the processor is configured to implement the above-described method when executing the instructions stored in the memory.

Detailed Implementation

Various exemplary embodiments, features, and aspects of this disclosure will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. The same reference numerals in the drawings denote elements that have the same or similar functions. Although various aspects of the embodiments are shown in the drawings, they are not necessarily drawn to scale unless specifically indicated otherwise.

The term “exemplary” as used herein means “serving as an example, embodiment, or illustration.” Any embodiment illustrated herein as “exemplary” is not necessarily to be construed as superior to or better than other embodiments.

Furthermore, to better illustrate this disclosure, numerous specific details are set forth in the following detailed description. Those skilled in the art will understand that this disclosure can be practiced without certain specific details. In some instances, methods, means, components, and circuits well known to those skilled in the art have not been described in detail in order to highlight the main points of this disclosure.

In related technologies, when users are playing videos in full-screen or non-full-screen mode using an application, a control to trigger pop-up playback is displayed on the video playback screen. After the user triggers the control, the application continues playing the video in a pop-up window, simultaneously exiting the full-screen or non-full-screen mode and returning to the previous screen. This allows users to continue browsing the previous screen while watching the video in a pop-up window floating above it. However, this requires users to click the control to trigger pop-up playback, necessitating them to memorize the operation. In particular, in some cases, the control icon's description of its function may not be intuitive, or it may even be hidden in a sub-menu, making it difficult for users to find and operate. Users unfamiliar with pop-up playback may even completely overlook this feature. Furthermore, for scenarios involving video browsing and searching, this method of triggering pop-up playback significantly inconveniences users.

To address the aforementioned technical problems, this disclosure provides a video playback method and apparatus. Users can choose whether to play the video in a small window while exiting a video details page, making the operation simple and convenient. This allows users to simultaneously watch the target video in a small window while browsing the next interface of the application. Displaying the small window while exiting the video details page effectively guides users to use the small window playback function, preventing users from missing this feature due to unfamiliarity or inconvenience. In particular, when switching interfaces within the application, users can conveniently choose to play the target video in the video details page in a small window or refuse small window playback, enriching the user's operational functions during interface switching within the application and allowing users to flexibly choose according to their needs.

Figure 1 shows a flowchart of a video playback method according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. Figure 2 shows a schematic diagram of interface changes in the video playback method according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in Figure 1, the method includes steps S101-S103. This method can be applied to terminal devices. The implementation of the video playback method according to an embodiment of the present disclosure will be described below with reference to Figures 1 and 2.

As shown in Figure 2, in step S101, if an exit gesture is detected on the video details page interface T1, a small window P is displayed above the video details page interface T1. User gesture detection can be performed during the process of displaying the application's video details page interface T1 to the user. If an exit gesture is detected on the video details page interface T1, the next interface T2 of the application to be displayed after exiting the video details page interface T1 can also be determined.

The application can be a video playback application (APP), and this disclosure does not impose any restrictions on it. The video details page interface can be an interface that displays detailed information about the target video. As shown in Figure 2, the following content can be displayed in different areas of the video details page interface T1: the target video, a brief introduction of the target video, videos associated with the target video, etc., and this disclosure does not impose any restrictions on it.

A "small window" can include a window displayed on top of other interfaces in the form of a floating window. As needed, this small window can be set to be movable, resizable, closable, and clickable to enter full-screen playback, etc. According to the examples below, small windows can also be used to display various prompts guiding user operations, and as trigger conditions for activating small window mode.

In one possible implementation, the exit gesture operation for the video details page interface T1 can be a swipe gesture or other gesture that slides along a preset direction on the video details page interface T1. The preset swipe direction can be to the right as shown in Figure 2, or to the left, etc., and this disclosure does not limit this.

In this embodiment, based on the user's historical operations, the interface previously displayed to the user before the current video details page T1 can be determined as the next interface. For example, the next interface could be the homepage, search results, etc., and this disclosure does not impose any limitations on this. Thus, when the pop-up mode is triggered, the user can continue browsing the next interface while simultaneously watching the target video in a pop-up window.

The following example uses the homepage or search results screen. In applications such as video playback apps, the homepage or search results screen typically displays video thumbnails. After clicking the thumbnail, the user enters the video's details page. Exiting the details page returns the user to the homepage or search results screen. In this embodiment, if an exit gesture is detected while displaying the video details page, a small window is displayed above it. If the small window mode is triggered, the user can continue browsing and selecting other videos of interest on the homepage or search results screen, or simultaneously watch the selected target video. If no other videos of interest are found, the user can switch back to full-screen mode through the small window to continue watching the target video, satisfying various user needs and providing a more flexible and convenient operating mode.

In some embodiments, when it is determined that a small window P needs to be displayed above the video details page interface T1, the small window P can be displayed above the video details page interface T1 according to its default display position and default display size. Alternatively, when it is determined that a small window P needs to be displayed above the video details page interface T1, the selected display position and selected display size selected by the user can be determined based on the user's historical behavior data, and then the small window P can be displayed at the selected display position above the video details page interface T1 according to the selected display size. Alternatively, when it is determined that a small window P needs to be displayed above the video details page interface T1, the small window P can be displayed above the video details page interface T1 based on the display position and display size of the small window during the user's last triggering of the small window mode to play the video. It is understood that the display position and display size of the small window P can be set according to the user's settings, and this disclosure does not limit this.

In one possible implementation, the method may further include: displaying a window selection reminder in the window P before determining that the window mode has been triggered. This reminder can be used to prompt the user to select window mode to continue playing the target video. In this way, the user can determine through the reminder that they can play the target video in window mode and then select it according to their needs, thus guiding the user to use the function. In some embodiments, the window selection reminder can also be used to remind the user of the triggering method for the window mode. This allows the user to determine how to quickly trigger the window mode based on the reminder.

In this implementation, the selection reminder can be displayed to the user in the form of text, images, animations, videos, etc. within the small window P, and this disclosure does not impose any restrictions on this. For example, as shown in Figure 2, the selection reminder is displayed in the form of the text "Drag to this small window to play". Since the small window has a certain area, it can display more intuitive and richer reminder information, and can be continuously displayed on other interfaces, thus providing better guidance and prompts for the user. It is understood that those skilled in the art can set the implementation method of the small window selection reminder according to actual needs, such as using double-clicking the small window as a trigger condition, etc., and this disclosure does not impose any restrictions on this.

As shown in Figure 2, in step S102, the user exits the video details page interface T1 and enters the next interface T2 of the application based on the exit gesture operation. Gesture operation detection can also be performed during the process of exiting the video details page interface T1 and entering the next interface T2 of the application, and then the user's activation of the pop-up mode can be determined based on the detected gesture operation. Specifically, the trajectory, dwell position, and duration of the gesture operation can be detected to determine whether the user has activated the pop-up mode.

In some embodiments, during the process of exiting the video details page interface T1 according to the exit gesture operation, the exit of the video details page interface T1 and the display of the next interface T2 can be performed according to a preset switching method between the video details page interface T1 and the next interface T2, thereby realizing the display switching between the video details page interface T1 and the next interface T2. For example, as shown in Figure 2, the video details page can be continuously moved out of the currently displayed interface and continuously moved into the next interface according to the sliding speed of the exit gesture operation, until the video details page is completely moved out of the interface and the next interface is completely moved into the interface. During this process, the small window can always be displayed on the current and next interfaces, continuously providing reminder information to the user and guiding the user to use the small window function. It is understood that those skilled in the art can set the implementation method of exiting the video details page interface and entering the next interface according to actual needs, and this disclosure does not limit it.

As shown in Figure 2, in step S103, if it is determined that the pop-up mode is triggered during the process of exiting the video details page interface T1, the pop-up window continues to be displayed in the currently displayed interface, and the target video is played in the pop-up window according to the playback progress of the target video in the video details page interface. In some embodiments, if it is determined that the pop-up mode is triggered, the display of the video details page interface T1 can be directly ended and the next interface T2 can be displayed. A pop-up window P is displayed on the upper layer of the next interface T2, so that the target video is played in the pop-up window P according to the playback progress of the target video in the video details page interface T1.

In one possible implementation, the method may further include: before exiting the video details page interface T1, if a gesture operation on the small window is detected to meet a trigger condition, then the small window mode is determined to be triggered. In some embodiments, the trigger condition may include: the endpoint of the gesture operation is located within the trigger range of the small window P and the duration of stay within the trigger range exceeds a preset duration. In some embodiments, the trigger range may be a preset range including the area occupied by the small window P, for example, as shown in Figure 2, the trigger range may be the area occupied by the small window P. It is understood that those skilled in the art can set the trigger condition according to actual needs, and this disclosure does not limit this. In this way, the small window is also used as a "control" to trigger the small window mode. Compared with conventional controls, the small window has a larger area, is more eye-catching, is more convenient to operate, and has a lower possibility of accidental operation.

In some embodiments, the preset duration of the triggering conditions can be set according to user settings to meet the different user needs for selecting the trigger window mode.

In one possible implementation, if the video details page is completely exited, or if the scheduled stage is reached and the pop-up mode is not triggered, the pop-up window may no longer be displayed.

In one possible implementation, the method may further include: upon determining that the pop-up mode has been triggered, displaying a pop-up playback reminder in the pop-up window P, the pop-up playback reminder being used to prompt the user to stop the gesture operation to play the target video in pop-up mode. In this way, the user can intuitively determine whether the pop-up mode has been triggered based on the pop-up playback reminder, facilitating a timely response.

In this implementation, the pop-up playback reminder can be displayed to the user in the pop-up window P in the form of text, images, animations, videos, etc., and this disclosure does not impose any restrictions on this. For example, as shown in Figure 2, the pop-up selection reminder is displayed in the form of the text "Release finger to play in pop-up window". It is understood that those skilled in the art can set the implementation method of the pop-up playback reminder according to actual needs, and this disclosure does not impose any restrictions on this.

The interface exit module 42 is used to exit the video details page interface and enter the next interface of the application according to the exit gesture operation;

The video playback module 43 is used to continue displaying the small window in the currently displayed interface if the small window mode is triggered based on the detected gesture operation during the process of exiting the video details page interface, and to play the target video in the small window according to the playback progress of the target video in the video details page interface.

In one possible implementation, the device further includes:

The trigger detection module is used to determine that the small window mode has been triggered if a gesture operation on the small window is detected that meets the trigger conditions before exiting the video details page interface.

In one possible implementation, the triggering condition includes: the endpoint of the gesture operation is located within the triggering range of the small window and the duration of stay within the triggering range exceeds a preset duration.

In one possible implementation, the device further includes:
