A method and terminal for playing multimedia data stream

Abstract

The embodiment of the invention provides a multimedia data stream playing method. The method comprises the steps that according to the preset subsection size and the multimedia data stream playing time sequence, the multimedia data steam of the current section not loaded at present in the multimedia data stream is determined and loaded to a terminal; the multimedia data stream of the current section is decrypted and / or decoded, and the decrypted and / or decoded multimedia data stream is played; when the playing schedule of the multimedia data stream of the current section reaches the first preset playing schedule, the multimedia data stream of the next section is indicated to be loaded. According to the method, memory consumption of the multimedia data stream of each section is small, the multimedia data stream of multiple subsections can be played continuously, and better experience is brought to a user. In addition, the embodiment of the invention further provides a multimedia data stream playing terminal.

Description

technical field [0001] Embodiments of the present invention relate to the field of multimedia technologies, and more specifically, embodiments of the present invention relate to a method and terminal for playing multimedia data streams. Background technique [0002] This section is intended to provide a background or context for implementations of the invention that are recited in the claims. The descriptions herein are not admitted to be prior art by inclusion in this section. [0003] In the prior art, in order to protect the video copyright and prevent the terminal from illegally using the video, some authentication methods are usually used to realize the video download. To put it simply: when the terminal requests a video file from the video server, it can carry some authentication information (for example: user device information or cookie information, etc.) in the request. After the video server receives the authentication information and confirms that the user has pe...

Problems solved by technology

[0008] First of all, the division of video files is the responsibility of the video server. For terminals with different processing capabilities, the video segments obtained according to the fixed division method may not be suitable for their own processing capabilities. That is to say, if the divided video segments are too large, they will still Lead to large terminal memory consumption;

[0009] Secondly, when the video segments loaded and decrypted and / or decoded by the terminal are played continuously, it is equivalent to mechanically splicing multiple independent physical video files together for playback, and there is an obvious connection between each two video segments. As a result, the entire video file composed of multiple video segments is not played smoothly, and the user experience is poor
