Description

Technical Field

[0001] This disclosure relates to the field of data processing, and in particular to a media content display, deduplication method, apparatus, device, and storage medium. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, in media content display scenarios, in order to avoid users viewing recently displayed media content and to ensure the user's viewing experience, the server usually needs to perform deduplication processing on the media content that the current user has recently viewed before returning the media content stream to the client.

[0003] However, for certain types of media content, such as interactive unlockable works, there may be a need for the same user to view the same media content again or even multiple times. If deduplication is still implemented using the methods described above, it will not be able to meet the need for the same user to view the same type of media content again or even multiple times. Therefore, how to meet the display needs of the aforementioned types of media content is a technical problem that urgently needs to be solved. Summary of the Invention

The first database stores the identifiers of preset type media content displayed by the first user within a preset first time period from the current time point, and the second database stores the identifiers of media content displayed by the first user within a preset second time period from the current time point. The preset first time period is less than the preset second time period, and the target media content belongs to the preset type media content.

[0010] Optionally, before displaying the target media content in the first display state or the target media content in the second display state on the media content display page, the method further includes:

[0011] In response to a media content stream request triggered by the first user, the system receives the second media content stream returned by the target server.

[0012] Based on client-side data backup, the second media content stream is deduplicated to obtain a locally deduplicated second media content stream; wherein, the client-side data backup includes identifiers of preset type media content displayed by the first user within a preset first time period from the current time point and identifiers of media content displayed within a preset second time period from the current time point; wherein, the target media content belongs to the locally deduplicated second media content stream.

[0013] Optionally, after displaying the target media content in the first display state based on the first media content stream on the media content display page, the method further includes:

[0014] A media content status synchronization message carrying the identifier of the preset type of media content and the identifier of the target media content is sent to the target server; wherein, the target server is used to store the identifier of the target media content in the first database based on the identifier of the preset type of media content.

[0023] The media content status synchronization message is parsed. If it is determined that the displayed media content belongs to the preset type of media content, the identifier of the displayed media content is stored in the first database; otherwise, the identifier of the displayed media content is stored in the second database.

[0024] Optionally, the method further includes:

[0025] Delete the identifier in the first database that displays media content of the preset type that is more than the preset first duration from the current time.

[0026] In addition, the identifiers of media content displayed in the second database that are more than the preset second duration from the current time are deleted.

[0027] Optionally, the step of performing deduplication processing on the media content in the initial media content stream based on the first database and the second database to obtain a deduplicated media content stream includes:

[0049] This disclosure provides a media content display method. Specifically, on a media content display page, target media content in a first display state is displayed based on a first media content stream. Upon receiving a media content stream request triggered by a first user, based on the target media content meeting a first preset condition, the target media content in either the first or second display state is displayed on the media content display page in the form of a second media content stream.

Obviously, for those skilled in the art, other drawings can be obtained based on these drawings without creative effort.

[0056] Figure 5 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of an electronic device provided in an embodiment of this disclosure. Detailed Implementation

[0057] To better understand the above-mentioned objectives, features, and advantages of this disclosure, the solutions disclosed herein will be further described below. It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features described herein can be combined with each other.

[0058] Numerous specific details are set forth in the following description in order to provide a full understanding of this disclosure, but this disclosure may also be implemented in other ways different from those described herein; obviously, the embodiments in the specification are only some, and not all, of the embodiments of this disclosure.

[0059] In practical applications, when a user requests a media content stream through a client, the target server needs to filter out media content that has already been displayed to the user before returning the media content stream. This is to prevent the user from seeing repeated media content that has been displayed recently, thereby improving the user's media content browsing experience. This process can be called deduplication.

[0060] However, for certain types of media content, such as interactive unlockable works, there may be a need for the same user to view the same media content again. That is, it is desirable to support the display of recently viewed media content to meet the user's interactive need to browse the same media content again.

[0061] Therefore, this disclosure provides a media content display method. Specifically, on a media content display page, target media content in a first display state is displayed based on a first media content stream. Upon receiving a media content stream request triggered by a first user, based on the target media content meeting a first preset condition, the target media content in either the first display state or the second display state is displayed on the media content display page in the form of a second media content stream. It is evident that this disclosure embodiment can fulfill the requirement of displaying the same target media content multiple times to the same user, thus improving the user's media content browsing experience.

[0062] In addition, regarding the above deduplication process, it is a problem that needs to be solved to achieve the deduplication process so that the above-preset media content can be displayed to the same user again or even multiple times.

[0063] Therefore, in the media content deduplication method provided in this embodiment, upon receiving a media content stream request from a first user, an initial media content stream is first obtained. Then, deduplication processing is performed on the media content in the initial media content stream based on a first database and a second database to obtain a deduplicated media content stream. The first database stores identifiers of preset types of media content displayed by the first user within a preset first time period from the current time, and the second database stores identifiers of media content played by the first user within a preset second time period from the current time. The preset first time period is shorter than the preset second time period. Furthermore, the deduplicated media content stream is returned in response to the aforementioned media content stream request.

[0064] As can be seen, this embodiment of the present disclosure utilizes the identifiers of preset type media content that the first user has displayed within a preset first time period from the current point in time to perform deduplication processing on the preset type media content requested by the first user. Since the preset first time period is less than the deduplication time period for other types of media content (i.e., the preset second time period), this embodiment of the present disclosure can remove deduplication for some preset type media content that has been displayed recently, so that users can browse some preset type media content that has been displayed recently, thus satisfying users' display needs for preset type media content.

[0065] Based on this, this disclosure provides a media content deduplication method applied to a client, the method comprising:

[0066] S101: On the media content display page, the target media content in the first display state is displayed based on the first media content stream.

[0067] The media content deduplication method provided in this disclosure is applied to a client, which may include a client deployed on a smartphone, a client deployed on a tablet, etc., and supports functions such as user-triggered acquisition of media content streams.

[0068] In this embodiment of the disclosure, the target media content can be a target video, a target image, a target graphic content, a target article content, etc., and the first media content stream can be any one of multiple media content streams, with the target media content belonging to the first media content stream.

[0069] In this embodiment of the disclosure, the target media content in the first display state may include an image of the target media content after blurring, such as an image after Gaussian blurring, an image in a mosaic state, etc.

[0070] S102: In response to a media content stream request triggered by a first user, based on the target media content meeting a first preset condition, display the target media content in the first display state or the target media content in the second display state on the media content display page.

[0071] The target media content belongs to the second media content stream, and the target media content in the second display state is converted from the target media content in the first display state. The conversion is based on the target operation triggered by the first user and / or the target media content meeting the second preset condition.

[0072] In this embodiment of the disclosure, the target media content satisfies a first preset condition, which may include a preset condition that the target media content is triggered to be displayed again within a preset time period for the same user; or a preset condition that the target media content is triggered to be displayed again for the same user after a target operation on the target media content is triggered.

[0073] In one optional implementation, assuming the target media content has already been displayed to a first user based on a first media content stream, when the first user triggers a media content stream request, a second media content stream including the target media content can also be obtained. If the target media content stream meets a first preset condition, the target media content in the first display state can be displayed again to the first user on the media content display page to satisfy the first user's need to browse the target media content again. The first preset condition for the target media content stream to meet the target media content stream may include a preset condition for the first user that the target media content is triggered to be displayed again within a preset time period.

[0074] In another optional implementation, assuming the target media content has already been displayed to the first user based on the first media content stream, when the first user triggers a media content stream request, a second media content stream including the target media content can also be obtained. If the target media content stream meets a first preset condition, the target media content in a second display state can be displayed again to the first user on the media content display page to satisfy the first user's need to browse the target media content again. The first preset condition for the target media content stream to meet the target media content can include, for the first user, triggering a preset condition for displaying the target media content again after triggering a target operation on the target media content.

[0075] In this embodiment of the disclosure, the target media content of the second display state can be obtained by converting the target media content of the first display state. For example, the target media content of the first display state includes an image of the target media content after blurring, and the target media content of the second display state can include an image of the target media content without blurring. That is, the target media content of the second display state is an image of the target media content without blurring obtained by converting the image of the target media content after blurring. Specifically, the conversion of the target media content of the first display state into the target media content of the second display state can be based on a target operation triggered by a first user, such as an unlock operation triggered by a first user; or it can be triggered when the target media content meets a second preset condition, such as when the target media content has been published for a preset duration (e.g., 48 hours).

[0076] In the media content display method provided in this embodiment, target media content in a first display state is displayed on the media content display page based on a first media content stream. Upon receiving a media content stream request triggered by a first user, based on the target media content meeting a first preset condition, the target media content in either the first display state or the second display state is displayed on the media content display page in the form of a second media content stream. Therefore, in this embodiment, the requirement to display the same target media content multiple times to the same user can be met, improving the user's media content browsing experience.

[0077] Based on the above embodiments, in response to a media content stream request triggered by a first user, the client sends the media content stream request to the target server. Upon receiving the media content stream request, the target server can obtain an initial media content stream for that request. Then, based on a first database and a second database, it performs deduplication processing on the media content in the obtained initial media content stream to obtain a deduplicated media content stream, i.e., a second media content stream. The first database stores identifiers of preset types of media content displayed by the first user within a preset first time period from the current time, and the second database stores identifiers of media content displayed by the first user within a preset second time period from the current time. The preset first time period is shorter than the preset second time period.

[0078] In this embodiment, the client can send a media content status synchronization message carrying an identifier of a preset type of media content and an identifier of the target media content to the target server. When the target server receives the media content status synchronization message from the client, it parses the message to determine whether the target media content belongs to the preset type of media content. If the target media content is determined to belong to the preset type of media content, the identifier of the target media content is stored in a first database; otherwise, the identifier of the target media content is stored in a second database.

[0079] Due to issues such as unstable client network, the media content identifier may not be synchronized to the target server in a timely manner after the media content is displayed on the client. This may result in inaccurate information in the first and second databases on the target server. Therefore, in order to further improve the effect of media content deduplication, this embodiment of the disclosure can also perform local deduplication processing on the deduplicated media content stream from the target server on the client to obtain a locally deduplicated media content stream.

[0080] In one optional implementation, after receiving the deduplicated second media content stream from the target server, the client can further deduplicate the deduplicated second media content stream based on the client's data backup to obtain a local deduplicated second media content stream, which can then be used to display media content on the client.

[0081] In practical applications, after receiving the deduplicated second media content stream from the target server, the client can perform local deduplication processing on the deduplicated second media content stream again based on the client's data backup, obtaining a locally deduplicated second media content stream. The client's data backup includes identifiers of preset types of media content displayed by the first user within a preset first time period from the current time and identifiers of media content displayed within a preset second time period from the current time. In other words, the identifiers of the media content stored in the client's data backup belong to the media content sent from the target server to the client and already displayed on the client.

[0082] In one optional implementation, while synchronizing media content display data to the target server, the client can also store the identifier of the target media content in a preset backup database, such as a first backup database. Specifically, in response to a display trigger operation for the target media content, after obtaining the media content type identifier carried by the target media content, if it is determined based on the target media content type identifier that the target media content belongs to a preset type of media content, then the identifier of the target media content is backed up and stored for a preset first duration, for example, in the first backup database; if it is determined based on the target media content type identifier that the target media content does not belong to the preset type of media content, then the identifier of the target media content is backed up and stored for a preset second duration, for example, in the second backup database.

[0083] Specifically, the first backup database stores identifiers for preset types of media content. Once the time elapsed between the display time of the preset type of media content and the current time exceeds a preset first time interval, the identifier for that preset type of media content is deleted from the first backup database. The second backup database stores target media content when it is determined that the target media content does not belong to the preset type of media content. Once the time elapsed between the display time of any media content and the current time exceeds a preset second time interval, the identifier for that media content is deleted from the second backup database.

[0084] In this embodiment of the disclosure, the client sends a media content stream request to the target server, obtains the second media content stream after deduplication from the target server, and performs local deduplication by using the identifiers of preset type media content displayed by the user within a preset first duration in the client's data backup. Since the preset first duration is shorter than the deduplication duration of other types of media content (i.e., the preset second duration), it can remove deduplication for some preset type media content that has been displayed recently, so that the user can browse some preset type media content that has been displayed recently, thus meeting the user's display needs for preset type media content.

[0085] Based on the above embodiments, this disclosure provides a method for deduplicating media content, referring to... Figure 2 This is a flowchart of a media content deduplication method provided in this embodiment of the disclosure. The method is applied to a target server, such as a media content recommendation server, and specifically includes:

[0086] S201: In response to a media content stream request from the first user, obtain the initial media content stream.

[0087] S202: Based on the first database and the second database, perform deduplication processing on the media content in the initial media content stream to obtain a deduplicated media content stream.

[0088] The first database stores identifiers of preset types of media content displayed by the first user within a preset first time period from the current time, and the second database stores identifiers of media content displayed by the first user within a preset second time period from the current time, wherein the preset first time period is shorter than the preset second time period.

[0089] In this embodiment of the disclosure, the target server is deployed with a first database and a second database. The first database stores identifiers of preset type media content displayed by the user within a preset first time period from the current time. Specifically, it includes identifiers of preset type media content displayed by the first user within the preset first time period from the current time, such as identifiers of preset type media content displayed by the first user within the last 2 hours. The second database stores identifiers of media content displayed by the user within a preset second time period from the current time. Specifically, it includes identifiers of media content displayed by the first user within the preset second time period from the current time, such as identifiers of media content displayed by the first user within the last 90 days.

[0090] In one optional implementation, the preset first duration and the preset second duration can be set based on the deduplication processing requirements, and this disclosure does not impose any limitations. For example, the preset first duration can be set to 2*n hours, where n is a positive integer, and the preset second duration can be set to 90 days, etc.

[0091] In this embodiment of the disclosure, after receiving a media content stream request from the client, the target server first obtains an initial media content stream. Optionally, assuming the media content stream request is a recommended media content stream request, the target server determines the initial recommended media content stream based on a recommendation strategy.

[0092] Secondly, after obtaining the initial media content stream, the target server performs deduplication on the media content in the initial media content stream based on the identifiers of the media content stored in the first database and the second database, respectively, to obtain the deduplicated media content stream. Since the first database stores identifiers of preset type media content displayed by the first user within a preset first time period (e.g., the identifiers of preset type media content displayed within the last 2 hours), and the second database stores identifiers of media content displayed by the first user within a preset second time period from the current time (e.g., the identifiers of all types of media content displayed within the last 90 days), deduplication of the media content in the initial media content stream using the first and second databases only applies to preset type media content displayed by the first user within the preset first time period (e.g., the last 2 hours). For preset type media content displayed by the first user more than the preset first time period (e.g., more than 2 hours), the deduplication effect is achieved.

[0093] Therefore, the deduplication media content stream obtained after the above deduplication process can include preset type media content that has been displayed by the first user for a period of time longer than a preset first duration (e.g., more than 2 hours). That is, deduplication is implemented differently for preset type media content.

[0094] In practical applications, the target server monitors the storage duration of media content identifiers in the first and second databases in real time. It deletes identifiers of preset type media content in the first database whose display time exceeds a preset first duration, and deletes identifiers of media content in the second database whose display time exceeds a preset second duration. This ensures that the identifiers of media content stored in the first database belong to preset type media content that has been displayed within the most recent preset first duration, and that the identifiers of media content stored in the second database belong to media content that has been displayed within the most recent preset second duration.

[0095] To further improve the deduplication effect of media content, in this embodiment of the disclosure, when the client sends a media content stream request to the target server, it carries a client data backup in the media content stream request so as to synchronize the client data backup to the target server, so that the target server can perform media content deduplication processing based on the first database, the second database and the client data backup.

[0096] Specifically, in this embodiment of the disclosure, after receiving a media content stream request, the target server obtains client data backup and determines the initial media content stream. Then, based on the first database, the second database, and the client data backup, it performs deduplication processing on the media content in the initial media content stream to obtain the deduplicated media content stream.

[0097] In another optional implementation, the client may have different requirements for deduplication of preset media content types depending on the scenario. Therefore, the client can include information in the media content stream request to determine whether preset deduplication conditions are met. When the target server receives the media content stream request, it first determines whether the request meets the preset deduplication conditions. If the preset conditions are met, the server performs deduplication processing on the media content in the initial media content stream based on a first database and a second database. The preset deduplication conditions can be determined based on the deduplication requirements for preset media content types.

[0098] In one optional implementation, the preset deduplication condition can be that the client currently logged in by the first user is in a preset deduplication scenario corresponding to a preset type of media content. Specifically, when the target server receives a media content stream request, it parses the request to determine whether it carries a preset deduplication status identifier. This identifier indicates that the client currently logged in by the first user is in a preset deduplication scenario corresponding to a preset type of media content. If the request carries this identifier, it means the client is in the preset deduplication scenario. In this case, deduplication can be performed on the initial media content stream based on the first and second databases to obtain a deduplicated media content stream.

[0099] In one optional implementation, the preset type of media content may include mosaic videos, which are videos processed using mosaic technology. Mosaic videos often require repeated playback by the same user within a short period. Therefore, the preset deduplication scenario for mosaic videos may include a user having posted a mosaic video within a preset third time period. That is, a user who posted a mosaic video within a preset third time period (e.g., within the last 4 hours) can replay the mosaic video based on the media content stream within a short period.

[0100] Therefore, the media content deduplication method provided in this disclosure can be used to deduplicatize mosaic videos. Furthermore, other types of media content with the same or similar playback requirements as mosaic videos can also be deduplicated using the media content deduplication method provided in this disclosure. This disclosure does not limit the specific type of preset media content.

[0101] S203: Request the return of the deduplicated media content stream in response to the media content stream request.

[0102] In this embodiment of the disclosure, after receiving a media content stream request from the first user, the target server first obtains the initial media content stream, and then performs deduplication processing on the media content in the initial media content stream based on the first database and the second database to obtain the deduplicated media content stream. Finally, the deduplicated media content stream is returned to the client logged in by the first user.

[0103] In this embodiment of the disclosure, the target server uses the identifiers of preset type media content that the first user has displayed within a preset first time period from the current point in time to perform deduplication processing on the preset type media content requested by the first user. Since the preset first time period is shorter than the deduplication time of other types of media content (i.e., the preset second time period), it can remove deduplication for some preset type media content that has been displayed recently, so that the user can browse some preset type media content that has been displayed recently, thus satisfying the user's playback needs for preset type media content.

[0104] In an optional implementation, based on the above steps, in the media content deduplication method provided in this disclosure, after the target server obtains the initial media content stream, it can also perform deduplication processing on the media content in the initial media content stream based on a third database to obtain the initial deduplicated media content stream.

[0105] The third database stores identifiers of media content sent to the first user within a preset fourth time period from the current time point, where the preset fourth time period is shorter than the preset first time period.

[0106] In this embodiment, the target server performs deduplication processing on the media content in the initial media content stream based on the first database and the second database. Essentially, this deduplication processing is performed on the media content that the first user has already displayed on the client. From the perspective of the target server, the media content sent by the target server to the client may differ from the media content displayed on the client; that is, some of the sent media content may not have been displayed on the client. Therefore, the target server can also perform deduplication processing on the media content sent by the target server.

[0107] Specifically, the third database deployed on the target server stores identifiers of media content sent to users within a preset fourth time period from the current time. Specifically, it includes identifiers of media content sent to the first user within the preset fourth time period. The preset fourth time period is shorter than the preset first time period. By setting the fourth time period to a value shorter than the preset first time period, the proportion of preset type media content recently sent by the target server is filtered out when performing deduplication processing on the media content sent to the target server.

[0108] In practical applications, after the target server obtains the initial media content stream, it can first perform deduplication processing on the initial media content stream based on the third database to obtain the initial deduplicated media content stream. The initial deduplicated media content stream is obtained by filtering out the media content in the initial media content stream that was sent by the first user within a preset fourth time period.

[0109] In addition, the preset fourth duration in the embodiments of this disclosure can be set based on the deduplication processing requirements, and the embodiments of this disclosure do not impose any restrictions on this.
