Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present disclosure relates to the field of communication technology, and in particular to a media file sharing method, a media file sharing device, and a storage medium. Background Art

[0002] With the continuous advancement of technology, mobile devices have become an indispensable part of people's lives. With the rapid development of applications such as live streaming, short videos, and audio and video entertainment, people can access a wide variety of media files through their devices. When they encounter a media file they find interesting, they share it with their family and friends, further sharing the information.

[0003] In related technologies, when a first terminal receives a media file shared by a second terminal, the user needs to actively open the application sharing link shared by the second terminal, and then open the web version of the application or jump from the web version to the application to obtain the media file shared by the second terminal. This results in cumbersome operations for users using the first terminal when obtaining shared media files, affecting the user experience. When the user of the second terminal shares a media file, it is necessary to search and determine the receiving terminal, and then find the first terminal with which the media file needs to be shared. For example, when sharing to the first terminal via Bluetooth, a pairing request prompt box will pop up on both the first terminal and the second terminal, requiring the user to confirm the sharing. Only when both the first terminal and the second terminal select OK on the pairing request can the media file be sent to the first terminal. This makes the sharing cycle of the second terminal too long when sharing media files, affecting the user experience. Summary of the Invention

[0034] Exemplary embodiments will be described in detail herein, with examples illustrated in the accompanying drawings. In the following description, when referring to the drawings, identical numerals in different figures represent identical or similar elements, unless otherwise indicated. The embodiments described in the following exemplary embodiments are not intended to represent all possible embodiments consistent with the present disclosure. Rather, they are merely examples of apparatus and methods consistent with certain aspects of the present disclosure, as detailed in the appended claims.

[0035] The media file sharing method provided by the embodiment of the present disclosure is applied to a scenario in which media files are shared between terminals. For the convenience of description, the terminals for sharing media files are referred to as a first terminal and a second terminal.

[0036] In related art, when sharing media files between terminals, when a first terminal receives a media file shared by a second terminal, it needs to determine the application that receives the media file. Then, the user clicks the application sharing link corresponding to the media file in the application that receives the media file. By clicking the application sharing link, the web version of the application corresponding to the media file is opened to obtain the media file, or by clicking the application sharing link, the web version of the application corresponding to the media file is opened and the user is prompted to jump to the application corresponding to the media file to obtain the media file. In one implementation scenario, when the second terminal sends a media file to the instant messaging software of the first terminal, the user of the first terminal needs to find the user of the second terminal in the instant messaging software and then click to run the application sharing link corresponding to the media file in the user interface with the second terminal to open the web version of the application corresponding to the media file to obtain the media file, or by clicking the application sharing link, the web version of the application corresponding to the media file is opened and the user is prompted to jump to the application corresponding to the media file to obtain the media file. In another implementation scenario, when using Bluetooth communication or short-range communication, the first terminal needs to first determine that the second terminal is allowed to share media files before receiving the media file transmitted by the second terminal and obtaining the application sharing link corresponding to the media file. A user using the first terminal can access the media file by clicking on the app sharing link to open the web version of the application corresponding to the media file, or by clicking on the app sharing link to open the web version of the application corresponding to the media file and then being prompted to jump to the application corresponding to the media file to access the media file. When the first terminal accesses the media file shared by the second terminal, multiple operations are required, making the acquisition process overly cumbersome and affecting the user experience.

[0037] In view of this, the present disclosure provides a media file sharing method that creates a shared trust group in which a first terminal and a second terminal trust each other. Based on the shared trust group, media files are shared. After receiving the media files shared by the second terminal, the first terminal can automatically display and run the media files. As a result, users using the first terminal can quickly view the media files shared by the second terminal on the first terminal without clicking on the application sharing link corresponding to the media file. The embodiments of the present disclosure can simplify the operation process of users using the first terminal to obtain shared media files, making it more convenient and quick to obtain shared media files, which helps to improve the user experience.

[0038] An exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure provides a media file sharing method applied to a first terminal. In one example, the first terminal may be a mobile terminal, such as a mobile phone, tablet, or iPod. In another example, the first terminal may include a dual-screen terminal, a foldable screen terminal, or a full-screen terminal.

[0039] Figure 1 is a flow chart showing a method according to an exemplary embodiment. Figure 1 As shown, the media file sharing method is used in the first terminal, and includes the following steps S11 to S12.

[0040] In step S11, a media file shared by a second terminal is received.

[0041] In an embodiment of the present disclosure, a shared trust group may include multiple terminals, which may be of the same or different types. In one example, the multiple terminals in the same shared trust group may all be any one of a mobile phone, a tablet, a laptop, or a desktop computer. In another example, the multiple terminals in the same shared trust group may be any combination of mobile phones, tablets, laptops, and desktop computers. When multiple terminals belong to the same shared trust group, it indicates that the terminals in the shared trust group trust each other. When the other party needs to establish a communication connection, they can achieve instant communication and mutual access without secondary authentication. The creation of a shared trust group can be based on a communication protocol such as the Near Field Communication (NFC) protocol or the Bluetooth communication protocol using a customized authentication or authorization method, which is not limited in this disclosure. For example, a shared trust group can be created based on the Bluetooth communication protocol, and thus, when creating a shared trust group, it is not restricted by the network, making the creation of a shared trust group more convenient. The Bluetooth communication protocol can rely on the Google Fast Pair protocol or Bluetooth Simple Pairing, which is not limited in this disclosure. Each terminal in the Bluetooth sharing group can save each other's Bluetooth device's Media Access Control Address (MAC), paired Bluetooth peripherals, or connected Bluetooth peripherals. And in the shared trust group, each terminal's security access rights to each other can be adjusted to a specified threshold, so that each terminal can trust each other and can open each other's application permissions or browser permissions. Therefore, when sharing based on the Bluetooth communication protocol, a communication connection can be directly and quickly established based on the saved MAC paired Bluetooth peripherals or connected Bluetooth peripherals. When the first terminal receives the media files shared by the second terminal, it can quickly access the second terminal, so that the application or browser of the first terminal can be opened in time, so that the user can obtain the media files shared by the second terminal in time.

[0042] In the present disclosure, the first terminal and the second terminal belong to the same shared trust group. Therefore, the first and second terminals trust each other. When the second terminal needs to share a media file with the first terminal, it can directly establish a communication connection with the first terminal, achieving instant access. Furthermore, when the user of the second terminal sends a shared media file to the first terminal, the first terminal can directly receive the shared media file without having to confirm receipt permission from the user. This simplifies the process for the user of the first terminal to confirm permission for the second terminal to send shared media files.

[0043] In one example, the media file includes any one of the following or a combination of data: text files, pictures, audio, and video, which are not limited in the present disclosure.

[0044] In step S12, the media file is displayed and executed.

[0045] In the embodiment of the present disclosure, based on the fact that the first terminal and the second terminal belong to the same shared trust group, after the first terminal obtains the media file shared by the second terminal, based on the instant access to the application corresponding to the media file, the application corresponding to the media file can automatically parse and process the media file. Then, after the first terminal receives the shared media file, it can directly display and run the received media file on the first terminal. For example: when the shared media file is a picture, the first terminal directly opens the picture through the gallery application after receiving the picture. When the shared media file is a video, the first terminal directly opens the video through the multimedia application corresponding to the video after receiving the video. This simplifies the process of users using the first terminal receiving and viewing media files shared by the second terminal, allowing users using the first terminal to quickly view the content of the shared media files, thereby improving the user experience of using the first terminal.

[0046] Through the above embodiment, based on the fact that the first terminal and the second terminal belong to the same shared trust group, it can be determined that secure access can be quickly established between the first terminal and the second terminal without user confirmation. Furthermore, when the second terminal sends a shared media file to the first terminal, the first terminal can directly receive the media file sent by the first terminal. Furthermore, because the first terminal and the second terminal trust each other, after receiving the shared media file, the first terminal can directly run the received media file and display it on the first terminal, allowing the user using the first terminal to quickly access the content of the media file without unnecessary operation. This simplifies the operation process of sharing media files, makes the implementation of sharing media files more convenient, and improves the user experience.

[0047] In one implementation scenario, if the first terminal is an Android system, when the first terminal receives a media file shared by the second terminal using the above embodiment, the media file can be directly displayed and executed on the first terminal without the user of the first terminal having to manually download the relevant Android application package (APK).

[0048] In one embodiment, the media file shared by the second terminal is received via an application sharing link. The application sharing link contains parameter information for running the media file shared by the second terminal. When the first terminal displays and runs the media file, the media file parameter information in the application sharing link is used to display and run the media file in the application running the media file.

[0049] In another embodiment of the present invention, the first terminal can determine the implementation method for displaying and running the media file based on whether the application corresponding to the application sharing link is installed in the first terminal. In one embodiment, if the application corresponding to the application sharing link is installed in the first terminal, the second terminal establishes communication with the first terminal, and when the media file is received, the application corresponding to the application sharing link in the first terminal can be directly started. The application started in the first terminal can parse and process the parameter information of the received media file, and then display and run the media file in its corresponding application. The fast sharing of media files is achieved through the embodiment of the present disclosure, so that users using the first terminal can obtain the content of the media files shared by the second terminal in a timely manner, simplifying the acquisition process. In one implementation scenario, if the first terminal is an Android system. When the first terminal obtains the media files shared by the second terminal, the user of the first terminal does not need to search for the corresponding audio and video content in the APK. In another embodiment, if the application corresponding to the application sharing link is not installed in the first terminal, the application corresponding to the application sharing link can be determined based on the user's operation of opening the application sharing link, and the web version of the application can be opened. Then, based on the parameter information, the media file can be displayed and run in the web version of the application, and the user can quickly obtain the content in the shared media file without downloading the application. Alternatively, in one embodiment of the present disclosure, if the application corresponding to the application sharing link is not installed in the first terminal, after opening the web version of the application, the user is prompted to download the application, and the downloaded application can better display and run the media file based on the received parameter information of the media file, thereby improving the user's visual viewing experience.

[0050] In one embodiment, parameter information for running a media file shared by a second terminal includes parameter information for displaying and running the media file on the second terminal. Furthermore, when sharing a media file, the parameter information for displaying and running the media file on the second terminal can be sent to the first terminal. This allows the first terminal to synchronize the display and running of the media file with the second terminal based on the application sharing link received from the second terminal, ensuring that the content displayed on the first and second terminals is identical. This eliminates the need for the user of the first terminal to manually adjust the playback progress of the media file by dragging and dropping. In one implementation scenario, the media file to be shared by the second terminal is a video. If the shared video is currently playing for 10 minutes in its corresponding application on the second terminal, the application sharing link sent by the second terminal to the first terminal includes parameter information indicating that the video has played for 10 minutes in the corresponding application on the second terminal. After receiving the application sharing link, the first terminal launches the application on the first terminal and, by parsing the parameter information, positions the video display on the first terminal at the point where the video has played for 10 minutes. This disclosed embodiment enables synchronization of the shared videos between the first and second terminals. For example, when parent A is browsing videos using the multimedia application of terminal A, he finds that the learning method introduced in video a is useful. Then, he shares video a with the child's terminal B in the same shared trust group. Then, the multimedia application of terminal B immediately displays and runs video a, and the picture of video a currently playing in terminal B is the same as the picture of video a currently playing in terminal A.

[0051] Based on the same concept, embodiments of the present disclosure also provide another method for sharing media files, which is applied to a second terminal. In one example, the second terminal may be a mobile terminal, such as a mobile phone, tablet, or iPod. In another example, the second terminal may include a dual-screen terminal, a foldable screen terminal, or a full-screen terminal.

[0052] In the related art, when the second terminal needs to share a media file to the first terminal, the user of the second terminal is required to click Share on the interface running the media file. Based on the user's sharing request, the second terminal prompts the method of sharing required, and based on the determined sharing method, searches for all possible users with which the second terminal can share the media file. The user of the second terminal selects one or more users to share the media file from all possible users provided by the second terminal. For example, when sharing to the first terminal via Bluetooth, a pairing request prompt box will pop up on both the first terminal and the second terminal requiring the user to confirm the sharing. Only when both the first terminal and the second terminal select OK on the pairing request can the media file be sent to the first terminal. However, when using this method to share media files, the user of the second terminal spends too long waiting for the second terminal to provide users with whom the media file can be shared, which affects the user's experience.

[0053] In view of this, another media file sharing method provided by the present disclosure can directly display a list of terminals belonging to the same sharing trust group when the user of the second terminal shares the media file, thereby saving the time of searching and pairing, so that the user of the second terminal can quickly share through the displayed terminal list, thereby shortening the sharing time and improving the user experience.

[0054] Figure 2 FIG. 1 is a flow chart showing a method for sharing media files according to an exemplary embodiment. Figure 2 As shown, the media file sharing method is used in the second terminal, including the following steps S21 to S22.

[0055] In step S21 , in response to being triggered to share a media file, a list of terminals included in a shared trust group to which the second terminal belongs is displayed.

[0056] In the embodiment of the present disclosure, based on the foregoing, a shared trust group may include multiple terminals. And in order to facilitate the clarification of the terminals included in the shared trust group, confirmation can be made through the displayed terminal list. That is, through the displayed terminal list, the terminals that have been added to the shared trust group can be clearly identified. When the second terminal needs to share a shared media file, the second terminal responds based on the shared media file triggered by the user of the second terminal, and displays the terminal list in the shared trust group to which the second terminal belongs, providing the user of the second terminal with terminals that can be shared, so that the user of the second terminal can quickly determine the terminal corresponding to the user who needs to share.

[0057] In step S22 , in response to the first terminal being selected, the media file is shared with the first terminal.

[0058] In the disclosed embodiments, the shared trust group to which the second terminal belongs may include the first terminal. Because the terminals within the shared trust group trust each other, they can directly establish a communication connection, enabling instant messaging. When a user using the second terminal chooses to share a media file with the first terminal, the second terminal can respond by establishing a communication connection with the first terminal and sending the shared media file to the first terminal.

[0059] Through the above-described embodiment, based on the shared trust group to which the second terminal belongs, when sharing media files, the terminals in the shared trust group can be directly displayed in the form of a terminal list, allowing the user of the second terminal to quickly select the terminal to share with based on the displayed terminal list in the shared trust group. Through the disclosed embodiment, the second terminal can obtain the first terminal that shares the media file with the second terminal without searching, and pair with the first terminal, thereby simplifying the sharing operation process for the user of the second terminal, allowing the user of the second terminal to quickly complete the sharing action, thereby improving the user experience.

[0060] In one embodiment, when the second terminal shares a media file with the first terminal, it sends an application sharing link containing parameter information for running the media file to the first terminal. Then, when the first terminal receives the application sharing link, it can display and run the media file in its corresponding application through the parameter information for running the media file in the application sharing link. Through the embodiment of the present disclosure, the entire process of the second terminal sharing the media file with the first terminal until the first terminal displays and runs the media file can be achieved in one step through the application sharing link sent by the first terminal, making the process of sharing media files more convenient, and the operation method of obtaining shared media files more simple, which is more conducive to enhancing the user experience.

[0061] In another embodiment, a shared trust group is created based on the Bluetooth communication protocol, thereby facilitating pairing or connecting to other identical peripherals without relying on network limitations. Thus, when a second terminal sends a shared media file to a first terminal, the shared media file can be sent to the first terminal based on the Bluetooth communication protocol.

[0062] In one implementation scenario, the second terminal may share the media file with the first terminal in the following manner: Figure 3 As shown, the first terminal and the second terminal belong to the same shared trust group. Figure 3 FIG. 4 is a flow chart of another method for sharing media files according to an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure.

[0063] In step S31 , in response to a shared media file triggered by a user of the second terminal, the second terminal displays a list of terminals included in a shared trust group to which the second terminal belongs.

[0064] In step S32 , based on the selection of the first terminal to be shared by the user of the second terminal in the terminal list, the second terminal shares the media file with the first terminal.

[0065] In step S33 , the first terminal receives the media file shared by the second terminal.

[0066] In step S34, the first terminal opens and runs the application corresponding to the media file, and displays and runs the media file in the corresponding application.

[0067] In another implementation scenario, the sharing process of the second terminal sharing the media file to the first terminal can be as follows: Figure 4 shown. Figure 4 The figure is a schematic diagram showing a media file sharing interaction according to an exemplary embodiment.

[0068] In the present disclosure, based on the Bluetooth communication protocol, multiple terminals that support Bluetooth communication are added to the same shared trust group to form a Bluetooth shared trust group. The Bluetooth shared trust group can be quickly established based on Google Fast Pair. The types of terminals in a Bluetooth shared trust group can be different. For example, multiple terminals may include: mobile phone A, mobile phone B, tablet C, personal computer (PC), or laptop D. When the user of mobile phone A in the Bluetooth shared trust group needs to send the audio or video currently playing on mobile phone A to mobile phone B, mobile phone A displays a list of terminals in the Bluetooth shared trust group to which mobile phone A belongs based on the user-triggered sharing. After the user of mobile phone A finds mobile phone B and selects it, mobile phone A sends relevant information such as the application containing the currently playing audio or video, the name of the playing content, the current playback progress, and the web link to mobile phone B in the form of a shared link. Mobile phone B automatically parses and processes the received shared link and automatically displays and plays the audio or video shared by mobile phone A in the relevant application. When playing sound, each terminal in the Bluetooth shared trust group can play it through the corresponding connected headphones or through the terminal's own speakers.

[0069] Based on the same concept, an embodiment of the present disclosure further provides a media file sharing device.

[0070] It is understandable that the media file sharing device provided by the embodiment of the present disclosure includes hardware structures and / or software modules corresponding to the execution of each function in order to realize the above functions. In combination with the units and algorithm steps of each example disclosed in the embodiment of the present disclosure, the embodiment of the present disclosure can be implemented in the form of hardware or a combination of hardware and computer software. Whether a function is executed in the form of hardware or computer software driving hardware depends on the specific application and design constraints of the technical solution. Those skilled in the art can use different methods to implement the described functions for each specific application, but such implementation should not be considered to exceed the scope of the technical solution of the embodiment of the present disclosure.
