Abstract

The invention discloses a video caching method and device, equipment and a medium. After a playing request for playing a first video is received, the online average watching duration is acquired, and the estimated watching duration of watching the first video by the target user is determined according to the online average watching duration, so that the downloading of the first video is guided according to the estimated watching duration, after the first video of the estimated watching duration is determined to be downloaded, the downloading of the first video is paused, and the caching of a second video is started, so that the second video can be downloaded without downloading the whole first video, the situation that the target user does not continue to watch the first video after the whole first video is downloaded by consuming a large amount of bandwidth is avoided, the bandwidth is reasonably utilized to download the second video, therefore, when the target user watches the second video, the cached second video is played to the target user in time, the number of videos which can be played within one second after the user selects is increased, the second output rate of the video is improved, and the user experience is improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the field of network video, in particular to a video caching method, device, equipment and medium. Background technique [0002] With the development of network video technology, more and more video playback software adopts more aggressive caching strategies to cache videos in order to improve the video output rate in seconds, avoid video freezes during playback, and improve user experience. For the video currently being watched, regardless of whether the user will watch the entire content of the video, the entire content of the video will be downloaded first. After the entire content of the video is downloaded, other videos that the user may watch will not be cached until All videos that may be watched by the user are downloaded. [0003] Due to the possibility that the user does not watch all the content of the downloaded video, the smart device wastes a large amount of bandwidth for downloading the video content tha...
