[0024] FIG1 illustrates a schematic diagram of an example environment 100 in which embodiments of the present disclosure can be implemented. In this example environment 100, a terminal device 110 has an application 120 installed. A user 140 can interact with application 120 via terminal device 110 and / or devices attached to terminal device 110. Application 120 may be a video application, such as a video sharing application or a live video application. Application 120 can provide user 140 with one or more services related to at least video content.

[0025] In the environment 100 of FIG. 1 , when an application 120 is opened, the terminal device 110 may present a page 150 of the application 120.

The server 130 can be various types of computing systems / servers that can provide computing power, including but not limited to mainframes, edge computing nodes, computing devices in cloud environments, and the like.

[0027] It should be understood that the structure and function of the various elements in the environment 100 are described for illustrative purposes only and do not imply any limitation on the scope of the present disclosure.

[0028] While watching a video, chat or comment areas are provided to support viewer interaction. Currently, many applications or websites allow viewers to open public chat areas within the current video playback interface. These chats are visible to all viewers and, in live video broadcasts, also to the host. However, sometimes users may not want to interact with all viewers of a video, but rather with specific users or groups within the video. Currently, such interactive channels are lacking.

[0029] The embodiments of the present disclosure propose a solution for video interaction. According to the solution, a private domain interaction entrance is provided in the video playback interface to support interaction with at least part of the audience of the current video. In response to the preset operation for the private domain interaction entrance, at least one interactive channel is presented. The presented interactive channel is an interactive channel determined by at least the selection information of the target user. Based on this approach, it can not only support private domain interaction between users and at least part of the audience and enrich the user's interactive options, but also enable users to quickly and conveniently locate private domain interaction channels with the audience group of interest, thereby improving interaction efficiency and enhancing user experience.

[0030] Various example implementations of this solution are described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0031] First, refer to Figures 2A to 2E , which schematically illustrate interfaces for video interaction according to some embodiments of the present disclosure. For the purposes of discussion, it is assumed that the interfaces in Figures 2A to 2E are presented by the terminal device 110 of Figure 1 . These interfaces may be provided by the application 120 running on the terminal device 110. In other embodiments, these interfaces may also be provided by a website. The embodiments of the present disclosure are not limited to this.

[0032] It should be understood that the interfaces shown in Figures 2A to 2E are merely examples, and various interface designs are possible. The various graphical elements in the interface may have different arrangements and different visual representations, one or more elements may be omitted or replaced, and one or more other elements may also be present. The embodiments of the present disclosure are not limited in this respect.

[0033] As shown in Figure 2A, the terminal device 110 provides a playback interface 200 for playing the target video 210. The playback interface 200 may include an area for displaying the target video 210. In some embodiments, the playback interface 200 may also include an area for other information associated with the target video, including an interactive area. In an embodiment of the present disclosure, the playback interface 200 also includes a private domain interaction entrance 230, which is configured to support the interaction of the target user with at least part of the current audience of the target video. Here, the "target user" refers to the current user who uses an application or website to watch the target video, for example, it can be a logged-in user of the application or website.

[0034] The playback interface 200 includes an interactive portal for supporting the target user to interact with the audience of the target video. The interactive portal includes at least a private domain interactive portal 220, which is configured to support the target user to interact with at least part of the current audience of the target video 210. In some embodiments, the interactive portal may also include a public domain interactive portal 230, which is configured to support the target user to interact with all the current audience of the target video 210. In some extreme cases, all the audience may have the same choice and be added to the target channel corresponding to the choice. In this case, all these users can interact under the public domain interactive portal 230 and can also interact in the target channel. When there is a new user, if it does not have the same choice, it will only be allowed to interact under the public domain interactive portal 230 and will not be added to the target channel.

[0035] In some embodiments, the private domain interaction portal 220 and / or the public domain interaction portal 230 can be configured as navigation tabs. In some embodiments, the private domain interaction portal 220 and / or the public domain interaction portal 230 can be always presented in the playback interface 200, or can be hidden or retracted in some manner and presented after a user triggers it.

[0036] In some embodiments, when the playback interface 200 is triggered, the public domain interaction portal 230 may be triggered by default, thereby presenting a public domain interaction area 232 corresponding to the public domain interaction portal 230. The public domain interaction area 232 presents interactive information posted by viewers of the target video 210 under the public domain interaction portal.

[0037] In some cases, if a user desires to interact with a specific audience or audience group, the private domain interaction portal 220 may be triggered. In response to receiving a preset operation for the private domain interaction portal 220, the terminal device 110 presents at least one interactive channel. As shown in FIG2B , in this example, the preset operation for the private domain interaction portal 220 triggers the presentation of interactive channels 222 and 224. The preset operation for triggering the private domain interaction portal may include one or more operations, such as a click operation, a preset gesture operation (e.g., a slide gesture), a voice command, and / or any other operation used.

[0038] The interactive channels presented under the private domain interaction portal 220 can support private domain interactions between the target user and specific viewers or audience groups within the interactive channels. For example, in the example of Figure 2B, the interactive channels presented under the private domain interaction portal 220 include interactive channels 222 and 224. In an embodiment of the present disclosure, one or more interactive channels presented under the private domain interaction portal can also be determined based on the target user's selection information. For the currently playing target video 210, multiple preset channels corresponding to the theme of the target video can be pre-set.

[0039] Such a topic can be associated with the content of a video, for example. For live video content, for example, such a topic can correspond to the title and / or other text description of the live video content. For example, for a TV series video, such a subject can correspond to the title and / or other text description of the TV series.

[0040] Based on the selection information of different users, a target channel that matches the selection information of the current target user can be selected from multiple preset channels and presented under their private domain interaction entrance. In this way, the target user can more quickly select and enter their favorite private domain channel for interaction.

[0041] For example, if the target video's content is related to a sports event, then multiple preset channels may correspond to multiple participants in the sports event. For example, the multiple participants in the sports event can be determined based on the theme of the video content. For example, if a live video is broadcasting a game between Team A and Team B, then the participants can be determined to include "Team A" and "Team B."

[0042] The multiple participants may include at least one of the following: a competitive team associated with a competitive activity, a competitive person associated with a competitive activity, a virtual character associated with a competitive activity, and the like. A competitive activity may be any offline or online competitive activity, such as a sports event, a game event, a talent show, and the like. In the example of FIG. 2B , assuming that the target video 210 is a football match (e.g., a match between Team A and Team B), the multiple participants may include both teams of the match, such as Team A and Team B. The multiple participants may also additionally or alternatively include one or more players, referees, coaches, mascots, and the like in the match. The bidding activities and their participants here may be configured as needed according to the actual scenario.

[0043] When watching videos related to different competitive activities, the target user may have certain choices for multiple participants. Therefore, the target user's selection information can indicate the target user's choice of the target participant among the multiple participants, and the target channel corresponds to the target participant. Considering the scenario of Figure 2B, among Team A and Team B in the current game, the target user may support and prefer Team A more. Therefore, when receiving the preset operation for the private domain interaction entrance 220, at least the interactive channel 222 "Team A Group Chat" is presented as the target channel. Under the interactive channel 222, the target user can interact with all the audiences who support Team A, and such audiences can be part or all of the total audience. It should be understood that in the case where the target video is a live video in a live broadcast room, such audiences can also include the live broadcast party (e.g., anchor) of the current live broadcast room.

[0044] In some embodiments, the target channel can also be directly determined based on the target user's selection information. For example, if the target user's selection information indicates that they support "Team A" in a competitive event, when receiving a preset operation on the private domain interaction portal 220, at least the interactive channel 222 "Team A Group Chat" will be presented as the target channel, regardless of whether the currently playing video is associated with "Team A". For example, it may correspond to a live broadcast of a game in which "Team A" is not participating.

[0045] The selection information used to determine the target channel can be obtained from various channels. In some embodiments, before the start of a competitive event or during the playback of a target video, users can express their selection information, such as which of multiple participants they support, through questionnaires, prize-winning guessing games, cheering for their own team, and so on. In some embodiments, other auxiliary information can also be used to determine the user's selection in similar videos or similar competitive events, thereby inferring possible choices for the current target video or competitive event. The embodiments of the present disclosure are not limited in this respect.

[0046] In some embodiments, one or more target channels may be determined based on the target user's selection information. For example, one target channel may correspond to a competitive team selected by the target user from among multiple competitive teams in a competitive event, another target channel may correspond to an athlete selected by the target user from among multiple athletes participating in the competitive event, and so on.

[0047] In some embodiments, channels corresponding to multiple participants can be created, for example, by the operator or user of the target video. In some embodiments, viewers of the target video can also be allowed to freely create private channels as needed. Therefore, in addition to the channels presented based on the target user's selection information, at least one private channel joined by the target user can also be presented under the private domain interaction entrance. At least one private channel can be created based on the corresponding user's creation application. As shown in Figure 2B, interactive channel 224 "Friends Group Chat" can be a private channel created by the current target user's application, or created by other users and joined by the current target user.

[0048] In some embodiments, while presenting the interactive channels under the private domain interaction entrance, the terminal device 110 may also present channel description information about the at least one interactive channel. The channel description information of the interactive channel may indicate the channel identifier of the interactive channel, the number of participating users of the interactive channel, and / or any other appropriate information. As shown in Figure 2B, at least the channel identifier "Team A Group Chat" and the number of participating users "10,000+" of the interactive channel 222 are presented. Similar description information may also be presented for the interactive channel 224.

[0049] In some embodiments, after the private domain interaction portal is triggered, the terminal device 110 may present a channel creation portal for creating a private channel. For example, in the example of Figure 2B, after receiving a preset operation on the private domain interaction portal 220, in addition to the currently joinable interactive channels 222 and 224, the terminal device 110 may also provide a channel creation portal 226 for the target user to create other private channels for interaction. In response to the selection of the channel creation portal (for example, if the user clicks on the channel creation portal), the terminal device 110 may be used to present a creation interface corresponding to the target private channel to be created, which is used to invite or add at least one contact or contact group. Figure 2C shows an example creation interface 230. In some embodiments, the creation interface 230 may include a list 232 of contacts or contact groups that the target user can invite or add, and each contact group may include multiple contacts. The target user can freely select contacts or contact groups in the list 232 to invite or add to the target private channel to be created.

[0050] In some embodiments, after receiving a first input for indicating at least one contact or contact group in the creation interface, the terminal device 110 may send a reminder about joining the target private channel to at least one contact or contact group selected by the target user. For example, in Figure 2C, an invitation control 234 may be provided in the creation interface 230. After the target user clicks to select one or more contacts and / or contact groups to be added, if the target user triggers the invitation control 234, a reminder may be sent to the corresponding contacts and / or contact groups. In some embodiments, the reminder may be sent, for example, via an in-application or website message, a reminder, or a chat message between users. In some embodiments, the reminder may include an entrance to the created target private channel. In this way, the reminded contacts and / or users in the contact group can directly enter the target private channel through the entrance to interact.

[0051] In some embodiments, after receiving a preset operation on the private domain interaction portal 220, if the target user's selection information cannot be determined or the target channel cannot be determined based on the selection information, and the target user has not previously created or joined any private channels, the terminal device 110 may also present a creation interface to remind the target user to actively create a private channel for interaction. For example, a creation interface 230 as shown in Figure 2D may be provided, which may include a list 232 of contacts or contact groups and an invitation control 234.

[0052] In some embodiments, if the target user creates a target private channel, the target user may also be allowed to share the created target private channel with other users, thereby inviting more relevant users to join in watching and interacting with the target video. Specifically, the terminal device 110 may receive a second input for generating a sharing link for the target private channel. In response to the second input, the sharing link may be copied to a clipboard associated with the target user. In this way, the target user can conveniently paste the sharing link from the clipboard to any other location that supports input, such as a third-party application or website, an appropriate input box, a document, for posting to user dynamics, and so on. Through the sharing link, other users, including users of third-party applications or websites, can conveniently join the target private channel created by the target user for interaction.

[0053] By proactively creating a targeted private channel, target users can independently create private interaction groups to engage in deeper interactions regarding the target videos being played.

[0054] In some embodiments, the target private channel may follow one or more restrictions, such as an upper limit on the number of people in the channel, verification requirements for joining the channel, and so on. These settings may be default (e.g., a default upper limit on the number of people), or they may be set by the target user as needed (e.g., whether verification is required). In some embodiments, the target user or other authorized users in the target private channel may also make various settings for the lifecycle, user permissions, and other aspects of the target private channel, and the embodiments of the present disclosure are not limited in this respect.

[0055] In some embodiments, for interactive channels under a private domain interactive entrance, including channels determined based on the target user's selection information, and private channels joined and / or created by the target user, the target user may be allowed to switch freely. That is, the target user can switch from one interactive channel to another. In some embodiments, the terminal device 110 may receive a selection for a specific channel (referred to as a "first channel") in one or more interactive channels under a private domain interactive entrance. In response to this selection, the terminal device 110 may present an interactive window corresponding to the first channel on the playback interface.

[0056] For example, if the target user selects the interactive channel 222 in Figure 2B, an interactive window 250 as shown in Figure 2E can be presented. In some embodiments, the interactive window corresponding to the first channel can be configured to present first interactive content from a group of viewers corresponding to the first channel. Alternatively or additionally, the interactive window can also be configured to receive second interactive content from the target user for sending to a group of viewers. For example, an input box 254 is also provided in the interactive window 250 of Figure 2E for receiving interactive comments input by the target user and presenting the target user's interactive comments in the interactive window. In some embodiments, the interactive window can also present channel description information 252 of the current channel (i.e., the first channel), such as channel identification, number of participating users, and so on.

[0057] In some embodiments, the interactive channels within the private domain interaction portal can support various types of interactive content. In some embodiments, interactive content can include, but is not limited to, text-based interactive content, image-based interactive content, emoji-based interactive content, voice-based interactive content, and so on. The specific interaction methods for different types of interactive content can be configured based on the needs of the actual application and scenario.

[0058] In some embodiments, one or more interactive channels within the private domain interaction portal (for example, the first channel that the target user chooses to enter) may also support real-time voice interaction capabilities. Real-time voice interaction capabilities can be configured as needed, or can be turned on and off by the creator and / or administrator of the channel. In the case of real-time voice interaction capabilities, at least one user in the interactive channel can be configured to have real-time voice input permissions. Users with real-time voice input permissions can perform real-time voice input in the current interactive channel, and the input voice will be played to other users in the channel.

[0059] In some embodiments, one or more users within an interactive channel can request such real-time voice input permission. The creator of the interactive channel or one or more other authorized users (e.g., administrators) can confirm whether a user is authorized to use real-time voice input. For example, assuming the target user of terminal device 110 has such authorization permission, if terminal device 110 receives a request from the first user in the current channel (assuming it is still the "first channel"), terminal device 110 can prompt the target user to confirm the request. In response to confirming the request, terminal device 110 can configure the first user making the request to have real-time voice input permission. In some embodiments, specific users within the first channel, such as the creator and / or administrator, can proactively request real-time voice input from one or more group users within the channel. Upon confirmation from the invited user, real-time voice input can be performed. In some embodiments, it is also possible for two or more users within the channel to have real-time voice input permission simultaneously, enabling these users to interact with each other in real-time voice. In some embodiments, if the target user joins multiple private channels, the target user can be configured to only be allowed to use real-time voice input in a single private channel at a time.

[0060] By configuring real-time voice input in private channels, you can support richer user interaction methods.

[0061] In some embodiments, if the first channel supports real-time voice input, each user within the current channel can also configure the volume of the target video and the volume of the real-time voice content. Specifically, a configuration interface for the first channel can be provided, which includes at least a volume adjustment control. The volume adjustment control can be used to adjust the first volume of the target video and the second volume of the real-time voice content in the first channel. In this way, different users can determine how to adjust the volume of different current sound sources based on their actual needs.
