[0045] The term "module" refers to any known or later developed hardware, software, firmware, artificial intelligence, fuzzy logic or combination of hardware and / or software code that is capable of performing the functions associated with that element.

[0046] In order to meet different user needs, some display devices are provided with two displays, namely a first display and a second display, wherein the function of the first display is similar to that of the display of a normal display device and is used for playing media resources; the second display is used to display some recommended information.

[0047] The display device provided by this embodiment is described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Figure 1 and 2 A schematic diagram of a display device provided in a feasible embodiment, the display device includes:

[0048] First display 1;

[0049] The display screen 2 is liftably arranged above or behind the first display screen, and the display screen includes a second display screen 21. When the power is turned on, the second display screen rises, the second display screen is arranged above the first display screen, and the bottom of the second display screen is at the same height as the top of the first display screen; when the second display screen is folded, the second display screen is arranged behind the first display screen, and when the power is turned off, the second display screen falls, and the top of the second display screen is not higher than the top of the first display screen;

[0050] A driving assembly (not shown in the figure), connected to the second display, and used to drive the second display to rise or retract;

[0051] As a feasible embodiment, the driving component may be a motor.

[0052] A second controller (not shown in the figure) is connected to the driving assembly and is used to control the movement of the driving assembly; and is connected to the second display and is used to control the second display to display the recommendation information;

[0053] The first controller (not shown in the figure) is connected to the second controller for communication with the second controller; and is connected to the first display for controlling the first display to display a playback image.

[0054] The display device disclosed in this embodiment, when turned off, the second display is located behind the first display. For details, please refer to Figure 2 A display device is shown. Figure 2 FIG. 1 is a rear view of a display device according to a feasible embodiment. It can be seen that the top of the second display 2 is not higher than the top of the first display 1. When the device is turned on, the second display assembly rises until the bottom of the display area 21 is located above the top of the first display. For details, please refer to Figure 1 A display device is shown. Figure 1 2 is a front view of a display device according to a feasible embodiment, and it can be seen that the bottom of the information display component 21 is located above the top of the first display. When working normally, the bottom of the information display component is always located above the first display.

[0055] In actual application, the first controller and the second controller can be integrated into one controller, and the corresponding display device includes a first display, a second display, a driving component and a controller, wherein the controller is connected to the first display and the second display at the same time.

[0056] As a feasible embodiment, the display screen further includes: a camera 22, for details, please refer to Figure 3 , Figure 3 This is a schematic diagram of a display device provided according to a feasible embodiment, wherein the camera is located below the second display.

[0057] As a feasible embodiment, the first controller is further configured to: in response to receiving a power-on command input by the user, send a startup command to the second controller; the second controller is further configured to: in response to the startup command sent by the first controller, control the driving component to drive the display screen to rise to a first height, the first height is not less than the height of the second display, so that the bottom of the second display is at the same height as the top of the first display.

[0058] In the technical solution shown in this embodiment, the first controller is connected to the user interface and is used to receive a power-on instruction input by the user. In response to receiving the power-on instruction input by the user, the first controller sends a startup instruction to the second controller. The second controller, in response to the startup instruction sent by the first controller, controls the driving component to drive the second display to rise to a first height, where the first height is the height of the second display.

[0059] It is worth noting that after the technical solution shown in this embodiment is turned on, the camera does not leak out of the first display, that is, the camera is still set behind the first display. Only when the magic mirror application is in the startup state, the camera is higher than the first display (that is, the bottom of the camera is at the same height as the top of the first display). The specific implementation process can be that the second controller is further configured to, in response to the startup of the magic mirror application, control the driving component to drive the second display to rise to a second height, and the second height is the height of the camera. In response to the shutdown of the magic mirror application, control the driving component to drive the second display to retract to a second height, and the second height is not less than the height of the camera.

[0060] For example, in a feasible embodiment, the height of the camera is 2 cm, and the second controller controls the driving component to drive the second display to rise 2 cm in response to the activation of the magic mirror application. The second controller controls the driving component to drive the second display to retract 2 cm in response to the deactivation of the magic mirror application.

[0061] How to allocate the display contents of the first display and the second display becomes a technical problem to be solved urgently.

[0062] In order to solve the above technical problems, based on the display device shown in the above embodiment, this embodiment makes further improvements to the display device, and the display device at least includes: a controller, a first display and a second display. The operation process of the display device is described below in conjunction with specific drawings:

[0063] Figure 4 The following is a flowchart of the interaction between a display device and a user according to a feasible embodiment. In the present application, the display device includes a first display, a second display and a controller.

[0064] Wherein, the first display is used to display the playback interface;

[0065] In the present application, after the display device is turned on, the first display shows the playback interface. The playback interface can display different content in different application scenarios. The content displayed on the playback interface can be, but is not limited to: boot animation, media resources, system homepage. For example, during the boot process of the display device, the playback interface can display the boot animation; when the display device completes the boot preparation, the playback interface jumps from the boot animation to the large-screen homepage. In this embodiment, the display content of the large-screen homepage is not limited. For example, in some feasible embodiments, the large-screen homepage can display icons of application installation on the display device, and in some feasible embodiments, the large-screen homepage can display a search interface. In the application scenario where the user opens a video APP, the playback interface can play media resources. It is worth noting that this embodiment is only an exemplary display of the content displayed on several playback pages, and the above content does not constitute a limitation. In the actual application process, the content displayed on the playback interface can be, but is not limited to, the above-mentioned content.

[0066] In this embodiment, the first display is also used to display the first interface and the second interface (the display of the first interface and the second interface will be described in detail later). In this embodiment, the display form of the first interface and the second interface is not limited. In some feasible embodiments, the first interface / the second interface can be a floating window located above the playback interface. In the actual application process, the position of the floating window can be set according to needs. For example, the floating window can be located in the upper left corner of the playback interface; for another example, the floating window can be located in the center of the playback interface. Here, the applicant does not make too many restrictions on the position of the floating window. In some feasible embodiments, the first interface / the second interface can be covered on the upper layer of the playback interface in the form of a floating layer, wherein the display priority of the first interface / the second interface is greater than the display priority of the playback interface.

[0067] The second display is used to display the recommendation interface.

[0068] In the present application, the second display displays different contents in different application scenarios. The contents of the second display may be, but are not limited to, boot animation, recommendation interface, small screen home page, etc. For example, during the boot process of the display device, if the second controller is in a raised state (i.e., the height of the bottom end of the second display is greater than the high end of the top end of the first display), the second display may play and display the boot animation. As a feasible embodiment, the boot animation displayed by the first display and the boot animation displayed by the second display may be linked to enhance the user experience. For example, the cartoon image in the boot animation may jump from the first display to the second display; the display device completes the boot preparation, and the content displayed by the second display jumps from the boot animation to the small screen home page. In this embodiment, the display content of the small screen home page is not limited. For example, in some feasible embodiments, the small screen home page may display the weather forecast, and in some feasible embodiments, the small screen home page may display some social news in a scrolling form.

[0069] In some application scenarios, the second display is also used to display the recommendation interface. In the present application, the recommendation interface includes at least recommendation information, which is information that prompts the user and is further displayed on the first display based on the user's operation. The recommendation information includes the status information of the display device. For example, when the display device is turned on, the recommendation information may be the networking information of the display device, and the networking information is used to remind the user of the network connection status of the display device. For another example, the recommendation information may be a push message sent by other devices. For example, when the display device was last shut down, the content displayed on the playback interface of the display device was the 45th episode of a TV series. This information may be stored on the server side. When the user turns on the display device again, the recommendation information may be "whether to continue playing the 46th episode of a TV series". For another example, when an external device is connected to the display device, the recommendation information may be "an external device attempts to connect to the display device, whether to configure the device". This embodiment is only an exemplary display of several types of recommendation information, and the above recommendation information does not constitute a limitation. In the actual application process, any information that prompts the user and is further displayed on the first display based on the user's operation can be applied as recommendation information to the display device shown in this embodiment.

[0070] Since the second display can display a small screen homepage in an application scenario where the recommendation interface is not displayed, the small screen homepage may include real-time messages such as weather forecasts or current news. In order to ensure that users can get real-time messages at any time, as a feasible implementation method, the second display can always be in a raised state, so that users can get real-time messages at any time through the real-time messages displayed on the second display. As a feasible implementation method, the second display can be lifted and set at the top or back of the first display. When the display device is in the on state, the second display is set at the top of the first display. Users can get real-time messages at any time through the real-time messages displayed on the second display. As a feasible implementation method, in order to save space, when the display device is in the off state, the second display can be folded to the back of the first display (that is, the top of the second display is not higher than the top of the first display).

[0071] As a feasible implementation method, in order to meet the needs of different users, the raising or retracting state of the second display may not be synchronized with the on or off state of the display device, and the user can set the raising time or retracting time of the second display according to needs.

[0072] The user executes step S41 to output a first control instruction.

[0073] In the present application, the first control instruction is a control instruction output by the user when the relevant content of the recommendation interface needs to be displayed on the first display.

[0074] In this embodiment, the first control instruction is triggered by the user, and there are multiple ways to implement the user triggering the first control instruction. As a feasible implementation method, the user can trigger the first control instruction by touching a preset button on the remote control. This embodiment does not limit the preset button. The preset button can be an original button on the remote control, such as the "Menu" button. The preset button can also be an additional button added on the basis of the existing remote control buttons. As a feasible implementation method, the user can trigger the first control instruction through user voice. This embodiment is only an exemplary introduction to several ways to implement the user triggering the first control instruction. In actual application, the implementation method of triggering the first control instruction can be but is not limited to the above two methods.

[0075] If the second display displays the recommendation interface, the controller is configured to execute step S42 to control the first display to display the first interface in response to the first control instruction.

[0076] In this application, the content displayed on the first interface is related to the recommended information;

[0077] As a feasible implementation method, the recommendation information may be a recommended advertisement sent by the server. Due to the limited display space of the second display, the second display may only display the name of the advertisement. In this implementation method, the display content of the first interface may be detailed information of the advertisement, and the detailed information may be a promotional video of the advertisement, the manufacturer of the product corresponding to the advertisement, the spokesperson, and other information.

[0078] As a feasible implementation method, the recommendation information may be a recommended video sent by the server. Due to the limited display space of the second display, the second display may only display the name of the video. In this implementation method, the display content of the first interface may be detailed information of the video, and the detailed information may be information such as the video, the leading actor of the video, and the production unit of the video.

[0079] As a feasible implementation, the recommendation information can display the network connection status of the device. Due to the limited display space of the second display, the second display may only display the network connection status. In this implementation, the display content of the first interface can be a network configuration interface, and the user can complete the network configuration on the network configuration interface.

[0080] It is worth noting that this embodiment is only an exemplary introduction to several display contents of the first interface, and the above display contents do not constitute limitations. In the actual application process, the display content of the first interface can be but not limited to the above methods, and the applicant does not make too many limitations here.

[0081] The following describes the content displayed on the first display and the second display in an application scenario where the second display displays a recommendation interface in conjunction with specific drawings. Figure 5 A schematic diagram of the change of the display content of the display device before and after receiving the first control instruction provided by a feasible embodiment. It can be seen that in the initial state, the second display shows the recommendation information 53 "Do you want to continue watching the 64th episode of a certain TV series?" At this time, the display can refer to the effect 51. After watching the prompt of the recommendation information letter, the user touches the "menu" button of the remote control to make the remote control output the first control instruction. At this time, the controller responds to the first control instruction and controls the first display to display the first interface. The first interface 54 is used to play the video data of the 64th episode of a certain TV series. At this time, the display can refer to the effect 52.

[0082] In order to meet the needs of different users, electronic devices often add some new functions. Some users may not be able to use the new functions because they do not understand how to use the new functions, resulting in poor user experience. In order to avoid the above problems, as a feasible real-time method, the recommendation interface also includes prompt information, which is relevant information to guide user operations.

[0083] In the present application, the prompt information is related information for guiding the user to operate. Specifically, the prompt information can be to guide the user on how to display the related content of the recommended information on the first display.

[0084] The following is a description of the display content of the prompt interface in conjunction with specific drawings. Figure 6 It is a schematic diagram of displaying content on a display device provided in a feasible embodiment. It can be seen that the second display displays a prompt interface, which includes a recommendation message 61 "There is an advertisement" and a prompt message 62 "Touch the menu button to view the details of the advertisement".

[0085] If the second display does not display the recommendation interface, the controller is configured to execute step S43 to control the first display to display the second interface in response to the first control instruction.

[0086] In the present application, the content displayed on the second interface is related to the playback content, and the playback content is the content displayed on the first display when the controller receives the first control instruction.

[0087] As a feasible implementation method, the playback content may be the home page of the system. In this implementation method, the display content of the second interface may be the setting page of the system.

[0088] As a feasible implementation mode, the playback content may be video data. In this implementation mode, the display content of the second interface may be a setting page of the video.

[0089] As a feasible implementation method, the playback content may be the home page of the application. In this implementation method, the display content of the second interface may be the setting page of the application.

[0090] It is worth noting that this embodiment is only an exemplary introduction to several display contents of the second interface, and the above display contents do not constitute limitations. In the actual application process, the display content of the second interface can be but not limited to the above methods, and the applicant does not make too many limitations here.

[0091] The following describes the display contents of the first display and the second display in an application scenario where the second display does not display the recommendation interface with reference to specific drawings. Figure 7A schematic diagram of the change of the display content of the display device before and after receiving the first control instruction provided in a feasible embodiment. It can be seen that in the initial state, the second display does not display the recommended information but displays a small screen homepage. In this embodiment, the small screen homepage is the real-time time. The first display displays a large screen homepage. At this time, the display can refer to effect 71. The user touches the "menu" button of the remote control to make the remote control output the first control instruction. At this time, the controller responds to the first control instruction and controls the first display to display the second interface. The second interface is used to display the system settings page 73. At this time, the display can refer to effect 72.

[0092] As a feasible embodiment, in response to the second control instruction, the controller is configured to execute step S44 to control the playback interface displayed by the first display to respond to the second control instruction.

[0093] In this embodiment, the second control instruction is different from the first control instruction, and specifically the second control instruction is a control instruction other than the first control instruction. For example, the second control instruction may be, but is not limited to, a channel switching instruction, a sound adjustment instruction, a fast forward instruction, and the like.

[0094] In the technical solution shown in this embodiment, only when the second display shows the recommendation interface, the content displayed by the second controller responds to the first control instruction, and in other cases, the playback interface displayed by the first display responds to the second control instruction. The process of the playback interface responding to the second control instruction is described below in combination with specific examples.

[0095] In a feasible embodiment, in response to a fast-forward instruction input by the user, the controller controls the video displayed on the playback interface to fast-forward.

[0096] In a feasible embodiment, in response to a channel change instruction input by the user, the controller controls the content displayed on the playback interface to switch from a program played on one channel to a program played on another channel.

[0097] The display device shown in this embodiment includes a controller, a first display, and a second display. When the first display displays the recommendation interface, the user can display the related content of the recommended information on the recommendation interface on the first display by outputting the first controller instruction. On the one hand, the interaction between the content displayed on the second display and the content displayed on the first display can be realized. On the other hand, the recommended information is first displayed on the second display, which can avoid the recommended information from blocking the playing content to a certain extent, and the user experience is better.

[0098] Most of the existing display devices are intelligent display devices. Only when the display device is connected to the Internet can some functions of the display device be realized, such as the function of watching network media resources and the search function. Therefore, whether the display device is connected to the Internet is crucial to the display device. In order to improve the user experience, the technical solution shown in this embodiment will make a judgment on whether the display device is connected to the Internet every time it is turned on, and the judgment result will be displayed to the user, so that the user can know the network connection status of the display device in time and make corresponding operations according to the needs to improve the user experience. The operation process of the display device is explained below in conjunction with specific drawings.

[0099] Figure 8 This is a flowchart of a network setting method provided in a feasible embodiment. Based on the display device shown in the above embodiment, the controller is further configured to execute steps S81-S82:

[0100] S81 responds to the power-on instruction and reads the network connection status;

[0101] In the technical solution shown in this embodiment, the power-on command can be input by the user. There are many ways to implement the user power-on command. For example, in a feasible embodiment, the user can trigger the remote control to output the power-on command by touching the power-on button of the remote control; for another example, in some feasible embodiments, the user can input a voice-type power-on command. This embodiment is only an exemplary introduction to two implementation methods of the user directly or indirectly outputting the power-on command. In actual application, the implementation method of the user outputting the power-on command can be but is not limited to the above two methods.

[0102] In this embodiment, the power-on instruction may also be actively generated by the display device. For example, in some feasible implementations, the user may set the power-on time, and when the system time of the display device is equal to the power-on time, the display device generates the power-on instruction. This embodiment is only an exemplary introduction to a method for the display device to generate a power-on instruction. In actual application, the method for the display device to generate a power-on instruction may be, but is not limited to, the above-mentioned method.

[0103] S82: if the network connection state is disconnected, controlling the second display to display a network connection recommendation interface;

[0104] The following describes the network connection recommendation interface displayed by the second display when the network connection state is disconnected in conjunction with specific drawings.

[0105] Fig. 9A schematic diagram of a display device provided according to a feasible embodiment when the network connection state is disconnected. In this embodiment, when the display device is turned on, the network connection state is disconnected. At this time, the second display shows a network connection recommendation interface 91, and the network connection recommendation interface includes recommendation information 91 "The network connection is disconnected" and prompt information 92 "The network setting interface can be called by touching the Jubao key". In this embodiment, when the second display does not show the prompt information 92 "The network setting interface can be called by touching the Jubao key", the user touches the Jubao key, and the controller intercepts the playback interface displayed by the first display.

[0106] As a feasible implementation mode, if the network of the display device is connected, the second display may not display any recommendation interface.

[0107] As a feasible implementation mode, if the network of the display device is in a connected state, the second display may not display the recommendation interface, and the recommendation information included in the recommendation interface may be that the display device is in a networked state.

[0108] S83: In response to the user's operation of invoking the network setting interface, controlling the first display to display the network setting interface.

[0109] The network setting interface displayed on the first display is described below with reference to specific drawings. Fig.10 The first display is a schematic diagram of a display device according to a feasible embodiment. In this embodiment, the first display is used to display a network setting interface, and the user can complete the network setting on the network setting interface.

[0110] The display device shown in this embodiment will determine whether the display device is connected to the Internet each time it is turned on, and display the determination result to the user. The user can promptly know the network connection status of the display device and perform corresponding operations according to needs, and the user experience is good.

[0111] As a feasible embodiment, if the first display displays a network setting interface, in response to a user's operation of invoking the network setting interface, the controller is further configured to: capture the interface currently displayed by the first display.

[0112] In this application, in order to meet the needs of different users, the raising or retracting state of the second display may not be synchronized with the opening or closing state of the display device, and the user can set the raising time or retracting time of the second display according to the needs. This will lead to a problem. When the top height of the second display is less than the top height of the first display, the second display is invisible from the user's perspective. At this time, the purpose of the user issuing the first control instruction is obviously to control the first display to display the second interface. However, if the second controller displays a recommended interface at this time, the controller may control the first display to display the first interface. At this time, the content displayed by the user is contrary to the user's original intention, and the user experience is poor. In order to avoid the occurrence of the above-mentioned technical problems, the embodiment of the present application further optimizes the display device provided in the above-mentioned embodiment. The operation process of the display device is explained below in conjunction with specific drawings.

[0113] Fig.11 This is a flow chart of a display device page display provided in a feasible embodiment. Based on the display device shown in the above embodiment, the controller is further configured to execute steps S111-S112:

[0114] S111 reads a first height in response to the first control instruction.

[0115] In this embodiment, the first height is the height of the bottom of the second display; the method for reading the first height can adopt the information reading method commonly used in the art, and the applicant does not make additional limitations here.

[0116] S112: If the first height is less than a second height, control the first display to display a second interface, where the second height is the height of the top of the first display.

[0117] In this embodiment, if the first height is less than the second height, it proves that the first display is in a retracted state. At this time, in response to the first control instruction, the controller controls the first display to display the second interface. The following is a description of the display content displayed by the display device when the second display is in different states in conjunction with specific drawings.

[0118] Fig.12 The following is a schematic diagram of the change of the display content of the display device before and after receiving the first control instruction when the second display is in the raised state according to a feasible embodiment. It can be seen that in the initial state of this embodiment, the second display is in the raised state, and the second display displays the recommendation interface. At this time, the display device can refer to the effect diagram 121. The user triggers the first display to display the first interface 123 by triggering the menu button, where the first interface is used to display detailed information of the advertisement. At this time, the display device can refer to the effect diagram 122.

[0119] Fig.13The following is a schematic diagram of the change of the displayed content of the display device before and after receiving the first control instruction when the second display is in the retracted state according to a feasible embodiment. It can be seen that in the initial state of this embodiment, the second display is in the retracted state, and the display device can refer to the effect diagram 131 at this time. The user triggers the first display to display the second interface 133 by triggering the menu button, where the second interface is used to display the system setting interface, and the display device can refer to the effect diagram 132 at this time.

[0120] When the second display is raised, the recommended information displayed on the first display is viewed, and the user realizes the interaction between the first display and the second display by pressing keys. When the second display is not raised, relevant controls are used to avoid pressing keys to trigger the content of the second display, which affects user use.

[0121] Recommended information is information that serves as a prompt to the user. Usually, the recommended information is related to the content displayed on the display playback interface or the current state of the display device. For example, if the display device is disconnected when it is turned on, the recommended information may be "the display device is disconnected"; for another example, if the user uses the display device to search for a TV series, the recommended information may be the starring actor of the TV series. Since the content displayed on the playback interface changes in real time, it is not necessary to display the recommended information related to the content on the second display all the time. Based on this, this embodiment shows a method for displaying recommended information. The following is a description of the operation process of the display device in conjunction with specific drawings.

[0122] Fig.14 This is a flowchart of a method for displaying recommendation information provided in a feasible embodiment. Based on the display device shown in the above embodiment, the controller is further configured to execute steps S141 to S144:

[0123] S141 statistics first time.

[0124] In this embodiment, the first time starts when the controller receives the first control instruction;

[0125] S142: If the first time is equal to the preset time, controlling the second display to jump from the recommendation interface to the preset interface.

[0126] This embodiment does not limit the preset time, and the user can set the duration of the preset time according to needs. For example, in a feasible embodiment, the preset time can be 1 minute.

[0127] The content displayed on the second display is described below with reference to specific drawings. Fig.15This is a schematic diagram of the change of the content displayed by the display device before and after the first time reaches the preset time according to a feasible embodiment. It can be seen that in the initial state of this embodiment, the second display displays the recommendation interface, and the display device can refer to the effect diagram 151 at this time. When the first time is equal to the preset time, the content displayed by the second display jumps to the preset page. In this embodiment, the preset page is the real time, and the display device can refer to the effect diagram 152 at this time.

[0128] If the first control instruction is received again within the preset time, the controller is further configured to control the first display to display a second interface in S143.

[0129] The content displayed on the first display is described below with reference to specific drawings. Fig.16 A schematic diagram of the change of the content displayed by the display device when the first control instruction is received again within the preset time according to a feasible embodiment. It can be seen that in the initial state of this embodiment, the second display displays the recommendation interface (with an advertisement), and the first display displays the playback interface. At this time, the display device can refer to the effect diagram 161. The user touches the menu button, and the first display displays the details of the advertisement. At this time, the display device can refer to the effect diagram 162. After 30 seconds (the preset time in this embodiment is equal to 1 minute), the user touches the menu button again, and the first display displays the setting interface of the playback content. At this time, the display device can refer to the effect diagram 163.

[0130] If the first control instruction is received again within the preset time, the controller is further configured to make no response to the first control instruction at S144.

[0131] The content displayed on the first display is explained below with reference to specific drawings. Fig.17 A schematic diagram of the change of the display content of the display device when the first control instruction is received again within the preset time according to a feasible embodiment. It can be seen that in the initial state of this embodiment, the second display displays the recommendation interface (with an advertisement), and the first display displays the playback interface. At this time, the display device can refer to the effect diagram 171. The user touches the menu button, and the first display displays the details of the advertisement. At this time, the display device can refer to the effect diagram 172. After 30 seconds (the preset time in this embodiment is equal to 1 minute), the user touches the menu button again and does not respond to the first control instruction. At this time, the display device can continue to refer to the effect diagram 172.

[0132] A second aspect of the embodiment of the present application shows a display device and a display method, including:

[0133] receiving a first control instruction, wherein the first control instruction is a control instruction input by a user when it is necessary to display relevant content of the recommended information on the first display; the recommendation interface at least includes the recommended information, and the recommended information is information that serves as a prompt to the user and can be further displayed on the first display, including information actively generated by the display device or information pushed by other devices;

[0134] If the second display shows the recommended information, in response to the first control instruction, the first display is controlled to show a first interface, wherein the content shown in the first interface is related to the recommended information;

[0135] If the second display does not display the recommended information, in response to the first control instruction, the first display is controlled to display a second interface, and the content displayed by the second interface is related to the playback content. The playback content is the content displayed by the playback interface when the controller receives the first control instruction.

[0136] The display method shown in this embodiment. When the first display displays the recommendation interface, the user can display the related content of the recommended information on the recommendation interface on the first display by outputting the first controller instruction. On the one hand, the interaction between the content displayed on the second display and the content displayed on the first display can be realized. On the other hand, the recommended information is first displayed on the second display, which can avoid the recommended information from blocking the playing content to a certain extent, and the user experience is better.

[0137] In a specific implementation, the present invention further provides a computer storage medium, wherein the computer storage medium may store a program, and when the program is executed, the program may include some or all of the steps of each embodiment of the method for displaying recommended information in the speaker mode provided by the present invention.
