Problems solved by technology

When a large number of users access the server of the content provider to watch programs at the same time, the server (such as a CDN node) will be overloaded, causing the server to be unable to respond to at least some of the user's viewing requests
However, in this case, the playback application that cannot download the content will usually continue to send content requests, which further aggravates the overload of the server and forms a vicious circle, making the user wait for a long time and cannot watch the program he wants to watch. There is no prompt, affecting user experience and reducing service quality

Embodiment 1

[0020] like figure 1 As shown, the embodiment of the present disclosure provides a content providing control method. The method can be executed by a device with data processing function, and the device can be an independent device or a device integrated in a server.

[0021] Content delivery control methods include:

[0022] Step S110, in response to the received content request task, send a status inquiry request message to the server.

[0023] The content request task may be a content request task generated according to a multimedia content download instruction. When using the terminal device, the user will give instructions to the client through the input device, for example, to download or play one or more multimedia contents. After receiving the post-content request task generated according to the instruction, the client will send a status inquiry request message to the server to determine whether the server has enough available resources to satisfy the content request...

Embodiment 2

[0034] figure 2 A flowchart of a control method is provided for the content of Embodiment 2 of the present disclosure.

[0035] In this embodiment, it is taken as an example that the terminal device executes the content providing control method provided by the present disclosure through the middleware or control (CDE, Cloud Data Entry) in the playback application. refer to figure 2 The content providing control method of this embodiment includes the following steps:

[0036] Step S210, the middleware or the control receives a content request task from the playback application.

[0037] In this embodiment, the middleware or the control provides an interface for receiving a content request task from the playback application and an interface for instructing the playback application to display a prompt that the server is currently overloaded. The instruction received by the playback application from the terminal device is transmitted to the middleware or the control through t...

Embodiment 3

[0047] According to the third embodiment of the present disclosure, a content providing terminal device is provided, and a corresponding content providing control device is provided in the terminal device, and the device requests a message sending module 410 , a response receiving module 420 and a response processing module 440 .

[0048] The request message sending module 410 is configured to send a status query request message in response to the received content request task to the server. The response receiving module 420 is used for receiving a response message from the server indicating whether the server is overloaded. The response processing module 440 is configured to display a prompt that the server is currently overloaded when the response message indicates that the server does not have available resources to meet the content request task.

[0049] After receiving the content request task, the terminal device first sends a status inquiry request message to the server...

Abstract

The embodiment of the invention discloses a content providing control method, a terminal device and a user device. The control method comprises: responding to a received content request task; sending state query request information to a server; receiving the response information whether the server is overloaded or not from the server; and if the response information indicates that the server is overloaded, displaying the prompting that the server is overloaded at present, and stopping the sending of the state query request information to the sever. After a content request task is received, the state query request information is sent to the server, it is known whether the server is overloaded or not, and if the sever is overloaded, the prompting that the server is overloaded at present is directly displayed to reduce users' waiting time.

Description

technical field [0001] The present disclosure relates to network multimedia content technology, and in particular to a content providing control method, terminal equipment and user equipment. Background technique [0002] With the maturity of data transmission technology, users can use terminal equipment to watch multimedia content through the Internet, which greatly enriches the entertainment life of users. For example, users can use playback software to watch various on-demand content provided by content providers, such as hit TV series, movies, variety shows, etc. In addition, users can also use terminal devices (such as mobile phones or tablet computers, etc.) to watch real-time broadcast news programs, sports events, and entertainment programs (such as Spring Festival Gala, Oscar award ceremony, etc.). [0003] When a user uses a terminal device to watch (especially online) multimedia content through the Internet, the playback application (APP) on the terminal device w...
