[0032] With the rapid development of terminal devices and the Internet, watching live broadcasts has become a common form of entertainment.

[0033] In the related art, in order to improve the viewing experience of live broadcast viewers, the live broadcast platform adds various special effects to the live broadcast room to improve the display effect of the live broadcast room. When playing special effects in the live broadcast room, the resource occupancy is increased, which leads to an increase in the performance consumption of the terminal device, and further increases the cost for users to watch the live broadcast. In addition, the difficulty for developers to play and control special effects also increases.

[0034] This exemplary embodiment provides a special effect rendering solution. The live broadcast platform involved in this solution can be applied to various terminal devices. Among them, the live broadcast platform can include a web version of the live broadcast platform and can also include live broadcast platform software. The terminal device can be an electronic device with a display screen, such as a computer, a tablet computer, a smart phone, etc., or a terminal device such as a game console, a VR device, etc., including a memory for storing data and a processor for data processing. The live broadcast platform software is installed through the memory, and the processor executes the program corresponding to the live broadcast platform software to realize the operation of the live broadcast platform software on the terminal device.

[0035] Figure 1 A schematic diagram of an exemplary system architecture to which the special effect rendering method of the embodiments of the present disclosure can be applied is shown.

[0036] As Figure 1 shown, the system architecture 1000 may include one or more of the terminal devices 1001, 1002, 1003, the network 1004, and the server 1005. The network 1004 is used to provide a medium for communication links between the terminal devices 1001, 1002, 1003 and the server 1005. The network 1004 may include various connection types, such as wired, wireless communication links, or fiber optic cables, etc.

[0037] It should be understood that Figure 1 the numbers of terminal devices, networks, and servers in are merely illustrative. According to the implementation requirements, there can be any number of terminal devices, networks, and servers. For example, the server 1005 can be a server cluster composed of multiple servers, etc.

[0038] Users can use the terminal devices 1001, 1002, 1003 to interact with the server 1005 through the network 1004 to receive or send messages, etc. The terminal devices 1001, 1002, 1003 can be various electronic devices with a display screen, including but not limited to smart phones, tablet computers, portable computers, and desktop computers, etc. In addition, the server 1005 can be a server that provides various services.

[0039] In one embodiment, the execution subject of the special effect rendering method of the present disclosure can be the server 1005. The server 1005 can obtain the special effect display instructions sent by the terminal devices 1001, 1002, 1003, and obtain the special effect information corresponding to the special effect to be displayed. Then, the server 1005 returns the special effect information corresponding to the special effect to be displayed to the terminal devices 1001, 1002, 1003, so that the terminal devices 1001, 1002, 1003 can obtain the operation response type associated with the special effect information, determine the rendering method of the special effect information according to the operation response type associated with the special effect information, and render the special effect information through the rendering method of the special effect information to display the special effect to be displayed in the live broadcast room. In addition, the special effect rendering method of the present disclosure can also be executed by the terminal devices 1001, 1002, 1003, etc., to implement obtaining the special effect information corresponding to the special effect to be displayed in response to the special effect display instruction, obtaining the operation response type associated with the special effect information, determining the rendering method of the special effect information according to the operation response type associated with the special effect information, and rendering the special effect information through the rendering method of the special effect information to display the special effect to be displayed in the live broadcast room.

[0040] Referring to Figure 2 shown, a flowchart of the special effect rendering method in this exemplary embodiment is shown, which may include the following steps:

[0041] Step S210: In response to a special effect display instruction, obtain special effect information corresponding to the special effect to be displayed; wherein, the special effect information is used to display the special effect to be displayed in the live broadcast room.

[0042] Step S220: Obtain the operation response type associated with the special effect information.

[0043] Step S230: Determine the rendering method of the special effect information according to the operation response type associated with the special effect information; wherein, the rendering method is used to indicate the rendering processor of the special effect to be displayed.

[0044] Step S240: Render the special effect information through the rendering method of the special effect information to display the special effect to be displayed in the live broadcast room.

[0045] In the special effect rendering method provided by an embodiment of the present disclosure, in response to a special effect display instruction, special effect information corresponding to the special effect to be displayed can be obtained, the operation response type associated with the special effect information can be obtained, the rendering method of the special effect information can be determined according to the operation response type associated with the special effect information, and the special effect information can be rendered through the rendering method of the special effect information to display the special effect to be displayed in the live broadcast room. On the one hand, the rendering method of the special effect can be determined according to the operation response type associated with the special effect information, different rendering processors can be determined according to different operation response types, the rendering pressure can be shared, the resource occupancy can be reduced, the performance consumption of the terminal device can be reduced, and thus the cost for users to watch the live broadcast can be reduced; on the other hand, by sharing the rendering pressure to different rendering processors, the difficulty for developers in developing special effects in terms of playing and controlling the special effects can be reduced.

[0046] Next, steps S210 to S240 of the special effect rendering method in this exemplary embodiment will be described in more detail in combination with Figure 1 and embodiments.

[0047] Step S210: In response to a special effect display instruction, obtain special effect information corresponding to the special effect to be displayed.

[0048] In an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure, in response to a special effect display instruction, special effect information corresponding to the special effect to be displayed can be obtained. Wherein, the special effect information is used to display the special effect to be displayed in the live broadcast room. Specifically, the special effect display instruction can be used to obtain the special effect information corresponding to the special effect to be displayed, the special effect display instruction can include the special effect information corresponding to the special effect to be displayed, and the special effect information corresponding to the special effect to be displayed can include various attributes of the special effect to be displayed, such as shape, size, color, position, etc.

[0049] It should be noted that the present disclosure does not make special limitations on the specific content of the special effect information corresponding to the special effect to be displayed.

[0050] For example, in a live streaming room, a gift-giving function is provided. When a gift-giving operation for a certain gift in the live streaming room is received, a special effect display instruction can be triggered. At this time, it is necessary to display the special effect corresponding to the gift in the live streaming room. The special effect information corresponding to the gift (the special effect to be displayed) can be obtained, and the special effect information can be used to display the special effect corresponding to the gift in the live streaming room.

[0051] For example, the special effects in the live streaming room can include gift-giving special effects, bullet screen special effects, host interaction special effects, etc.

[0052] It should be noted that the present disclosure does not make special limitations on the specific type of the special effect to be displayed.

[0053] Step S220, obtain the operation response type associated with the special effect information;

[0054] In an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure, after obtaining the special effect information corresponding to the special effect to be displayed through the above steps, the operation response type associated with the special effect information can be obtained. Specifically, the operation response type refers to whether the special effect to be displayed corresponding to the special effect information will generate a response after receiving an operation on the special effect to be displayed (including controller operations and touch operations, etc.). If a response is generated after receiving a click operation on the special effect to be displayed, the operation response type associated with the special effect information is an operable type. If no response is generated after receiving a click operation on the special effect to be displayed, the operation response type associated with the special effect information is a non-operable type.

[0055] For example, for a certain special effect, after performing a click and touch operation on the special effect, the special effect will change in shape, then the special effect is an operable type, that is, the operation response type associated with the special effect information is an operable type.

[0056] Specifically, the operation response type associated with the special effect information can be obtained. For example, the operation type identifier is included in the special effect information, and the operation response type associated with the special effect information can be determined according to the operation type identifier; or, operation simulation can be performed through the obtained special effect information, and the operation response type associated with the special effect information can be determined according to the result of the operation simulation.

[0057] It should be noted that the present disclosure does not make special limitations on the specific manner of obtaining the operation response type associated with the special effect information.

[0058] Step S230, determine the rendering method of the special effect information according to the operation response type associated with the special effect information;

[0059] In an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure, after obtaining the operation response type associated with the special effect information through the above steps, the rendering method of the special effect information can be determined according to the operation response type associated with the special effect information. Among them, the rendering method is used to indicate the rendering processor of the special effect to be displayed. Specifically, different operation types adopt different rendering methods for rendering the special effect information, and different rendering methods can use different rendering processors. For example, the rendering processor may include a CPU (Central Processing Unit), or the rendering processor may include a GPU (Graphics Processing Unit).

[0060] For example, the rendering method may include two types: the first rendering method, the second rendering method, and the third rendering method. Among them, the first rendering method is the method of using the CPU to render the special effect information, the second rendering method is the method of using the GPU to render the special effect information, and the third rendering method is the method of using the CPU and the GPU to perform hybrid rendering on the special effect information.

[0061] In an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure, the rendering method of the special effect information can be determined according to the operation response type associated with the special effect information. For example, when the operation response type associated with the special effect information is an operable type, the rendering method of using the CPU to render the special effect information can be adopted. When the operation response type associated with the special effect information is an inoperable type, the rendering method of using the GPU to render the special effect information can be adopted.

[0062] It should be noted that the present disclosure does not make special limitations on determining the rendering method of the special effect information according to the operation response type associated with the special effect information.

[0063] Step S240, rendering the special effect information through the rendering method of the special effect information to display the special effect to be displayed in the live broadcast room.

[0064] In an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure, after determining the rendering method of the special effect information through the above steps, the special effect information can be rendered through the rendering method of the special effect information to display the special effect to be displayed in the live broadcast room. Specifically, the rendering method of the special effect information can be used to indicate the rendering processor of the special effect to be displayed. After determining the rendering processor to be used for the special effect information, the special effect information can be rendered through the determined rendering processor and the special effect to be displayed can be displayed in the live broadcast room.

[0065] For example, if the rendering method of the special effect information determined through the above steps is to use the CPU to render the special effect information, at this time, the special effect information can be rendered through the CPU to display the rendered special effect to be displayed in the live broadcast room.

[0066] Through the above steps S210 - S240, multiple special effect display instructions can be triggered, the special effect information corresponding to each special effect to be displayed can be obtained, and the operation response types associated with each special effect information can be obtained. According to the operation response types associated with each special effect information, the rendering methods of each special effect information can be determined, and each special effect information can be rendered according to the rendering methods of each special effect information, so as to display each special effect to be displayed in the live broadcast room. Through the solution of the present disclosure, multiple special effects to be displayed can be rendered by different rendering methods, and the rendering pressure can be distributed to different rendering processors, reducing the performance consumption of the terminal device.

[0067] In an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure, when the operation response type associated with the special effect information is a non - operable type, the display type of the special effect information is determined according to the display attribute of the special effect information, and the rendering method of the special effect information is determined according to the display type of the special effect information. Refer to Figure 3 As shown, determining the rendering method of the special effect information according to the display type of the special effect information may include the following steps S310 - S320:

[0068] Step S310, when the operation response type associated with the special effect information is a non - operable type, determine the display type of the special effect information according to the display attribute of the special effect information;

[0069] Step S320, determine the rendering method of the special effect information according to the display type of the special effect information.

[0070] In an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure, when it is determined through the above steps that the operation response type associated with the special effect information is a non - operable type, the display type of the special effect information can be determined. Specifically, the display attribute of the special effect to be displayed can be used to indicate various parameters or characteristics of the special effect to be displayed. For example, the display attribute of the special effect to be displayed may include the special effect shape, the special effect duration, the special effect size, whether the special effect can be stretched, whether the special effect is dynamic, etc. It should be noted that the present disclosure does not make special limitations on the specific type of the display attribute.

[0071] Specifically, different display attributes can correspond to different display types. For example, when the special effect duration is greater than or equal to the preset duration, it can be determined that the display type of the special effect information is the first display type, and when the special effect duration is less than the preset duration, it can be determined that the display type of the special effect information is the second display type; for another example, when the special effect shape is a simple graphic (for example, the number of sides is less than 6), it can be determined that the display type of the special effect information is the first display type, and when the special effect shape is a complex graphic (for example, the number of sides of the graphic is greater than or equal to 6), it can be determined that the display type of the special effect information is the second display type.

[0072] It should be noted that the present disclosure does not make any special limitations on the specific method of determining the rendering method of the special effect information according to the display type of the special effect information.

[0073] Through the above steps S310 to S320, when the operation response type associated with the special effect information is a non-operable type, the display type of the special effect information is determined according to the display attribute of the special effect information, and the rendering method of the special effect information is determined according to the display type of the special effect information.

[0074] In an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure, when the operation response type associated with the special effect information is an operable type, the window level of the special effect information can be determined, and the rendering method of the special effect information is determined according to the window level of the special effect information. Refer to Figure 4 As shown, determining the rendering method of the special effect information according to the window level of the special effect information may include the following steps S410 to S420:

[0075] Step S410, when the operation response type associated with the special effect information is an operable type, determine the window level of the special effect information;

[0076] In an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure, when it is determined through the above steps that the operation response type associated with the special effect information is an operable type, the window level of the special effect information can be determined. Specifically, the window level of the special effect information can be used to indicate the level of the special effect to be displayed corresponding to the special effect information among multiple windows in the terminal device. Specifically, since the special effect to be displayed can be displayed through a window, the window level of the special effect information corresponding to the special effect to be displayed can be determined.

[0077] For example, in the special effect information, a window level identifier may be included, and the window level of the special effect information can be determined through the window level identifier.

[0078] It should be noted that the present disclosure does not make any special limitations on the specific method of determining the window level of the special effect information.

[0079] Step S420, determine the rendering method of the special effect information according to the window level of the special effect information.

[0080] In an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure, after determining the window level of the special effect information through the above steps, the rendering method of the special effect information can be determined according to the window level of the special effect information. Specifically, different window levels may correspond to different rendering methods. For example, when the window level of the special effect information is the first layer (the bottom layer), the first rendering method is adopted; when the window level of the special effect information is the second layer, the second rendering method is adopted; when the window level of the special effect information is the third layer, the third rendering method is adopted.

[0081] It should be noted that the present disclosure does not make any special limitations on the specific manner of determining the rendering method of the special effect information according to the window level of the special effect information.

[0082] Through the above steps S410 to S420, when the operation response type associated with the special effect information is an operable type, the window level of the special effect information can be determined, and the rendering method of the special effect information can be determined according to the window level of the special effect information.

[0083] In an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure, it is determined that the window level of the special effect information is the bottom layer, the display type of the special effect information is determined according to the display attribute of the special effect information, and the rendering method of the special effect information is determined according to the display type of the special effect information. Among them, the first rendering method is the method of rendering the special effect information through the first rendering processor, the second rendering method is the method of rendering the special effect information through the second rendering processor, and the first rendering processor is different from the second rendering processor. Specifically, when the window level of the special effect information is not the bottom layer, the rendering method of the special effect information can be determined as the first rendering method or the second rendering method, that is, for this special effect information, it can only be rendered through the same rendering processor; when the window level of the special effect information is not the bottom layer, if different rendering methods are used at the same time (that is, different rendering processors are used at the same time), the window where the special effect information is located will not be penetrable.

[0084] For example, the first rendering method can be the method of rendering the special effect information through the CPU; the second rendering method can be the method of rendering through the GPU.

[0085] It should be noted that the present disclosure does not make any special limitations on the specific manner of determining the rendering method of the special effect information as the first rendering method or the second rendering method.

[0086] In an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure, it is determined that the window level of the special effect information is the bottom layer, the display type of the special effect information is determined according to the display attribute of the special effect information, and the rendering method of the special effect information is determined according to the display type of the special effect information. Among them, the display type is used to indicate the display attribute of the special effect to be displayed. Specifically, when it is determined through the above steps that the window level of the special effect information is the bottom layer, the display type of the special effect information can be determined according to the display attribute of the special effect information, and the rendering method of the special effect information can be determined according to the display type of the special effect information. Specifically, the display attribute of the special effect to be displayed can be used to indicate various parameters or characteristics of the special effect to be displayed. For example, the display attribute of the special effect to be displayed can include the special effect shape, the special effect duration, the special effect size, whether the special effect can be stretched, whether the special effect is dynamic, etc. It should be noted that the present disclosure does not make any special limitations on the specific type of the display attribute.

[0087] Specifically, different display attributes can correspond to different display types. For example, when the special effect size is greater than or equal to the preset size, the display type of the special effect information can be determined as the first display type; when the special effect size is less than the preset size, the display type of the special effect information can be determined as the second display type. Another example is that when the special effect shape can be stretched, the display type of the special effect information can be determined as the first display type; when the special effect shape does not support stretching, the display type of the special effect information can be determined as the second display type.

[0088] It should be noted that the present disclosure does not make special limitations on the specific method of determining the rendering method of the special effect information according to the display type of the special effect information.

[0089] In an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure, when it is determined that the size attribute of the special effect information is less than or equal to the preset size, or the stretching attribute of the special effect information is non-stretching, or the dynamic attribute of the special effect information is static, the display type of the special effect information is the first display type. When the display type of the special effect information is the first display type, the rendering method of the special effect information is determined as the first rendering method. Refer to Figure 5 As shown, when the display type of the special effect information is the first display type, determining the rendering method of the special effect information as the first rendering method may include the following steps S510 to S520:

[0090] Step S510, when it is determined that the size attribute of the special effect information is less than or equal to the preset size, or the stretching attribute of the special effect information is non-stretching, or the dynamic attribute of the special effect information is static, the display type of the special effect information is the first display type;

[0091] Step S520, when the display type of the special effect information is the first display type, determining the rendering method of the special effect information as the first rendering method; wherein, the first rendering method is a method of rendering the special effect information through the first rendering processor;

[0092] In an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure, the display attribute of the special effect information can be obtained. The display attribute of the special effect information can be used to indicate various parameters or characteristics of the special effect to be displayed. Specifically, the display attribute of the special effect information can include a size attribute, a stretching attribute, and a dynamic attribute.

[0093] Among them, the size attribute can be used to indicate the situation of the graphical user interface of the live broadcast room occupied by the special effect to be displayed corresponding to the special effect information; the stretching attribute can be used to indicate whether the special effect to be displayed corresponding to the special effect information can be stretched; the dynamic attribute can be used to indicate whether the special effect to be displayed corresponding to the special effect information is a dynamic special effect.

[0094] In an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure, the special effect information may include special effect attributes, and the display attributes of the special effect information can be determined through the special effect information. For example, the special effect information includes the attribute identifiers of each display attribute (such as size attribute, stretching attribute, and dynamic attribute), and the display attributes of the special effect information can be determined through the attribute identifiers of each display attribute.

[0095] It should be noted that the present disclosure does not make special limitations on the specific manner of obtaining the display attributes of the special effect information.

[0096] In an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure, after determining the display attributes (size attribute, stretching attribute, and dynamic attribute) of the special effect information through the above steps, the rendering method of the special effect information can be determined according to the display attributes of the special effect information.

[0097] Specifically, when the size attribute of the special effect information is less than or equal to the preset size, or the stretching attribute of the special effect information is no stretching, or the dynamic attribute of the special effect information is static, it is determined that the display type of the special effect information is the first display type, and the rendering method of the special effect information can be determined as the first rendering method. Among them, the first rendering method is the method of rendering the special effect information through the first rendering processor. For example, the first rendering method is the method of rendering the special effect information through the CPU.

[0098] Through the above steps S510 - S520, it can be determined that when the size attribute of the special effect information is less than or equal to the preset size, or the stretching attribute of the special effect information is no stretching, or the dynamic attribute of the special effect information is static, the display type of the special effect information is the first display type. When the display type of the special effect information is the first display type, the rendering method of the special effect information is determined as the first rendering method.

[0099] In an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure, it can be determined that when the size attribute of the special effect information is greater than the preset size, or the stretching attribute of the special effect information is stretching, or the dynamic attribute of the special effect information is dynamic, the display type of the special effect information is the second display type. When the display type of the special effect information is the second display type, the rendering method of the special effect information is determined as the second rendering method. Refer to Figure 6 As shown, when the display type of the special effect information is the second display type, determining the rendering method of the special effect information as the second rendering method may include the following steps S610 - S620:

[0100] Step S610, determine that when the size attribute of the special effect information is greater than the preset size, or the stretching attribute of the special effect information is stretching, or the dynamic attribute of the special effect information is dynamic, the display type of the special effect information is the second display type;

[0101] Step S620, when the display type of the special effect information is the second display type, determine that the rendering method of the special effect information is the second rendering method; wherein, the second rendering method is a method of rendering the special effect information through a second rendering processor;

[0102] In an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure, when the size attribute of the special effect information is greater than a preset size, or the stretching attribute of the special effect information is stretching, or the dynamic attribute of the special effect information is dynamic, it can be determined that the display type of the special effect information is the second display type, and it can be determined that the rendering method of the special effect information is the second rendering method. Wherein, the second rendering method is a method of rendering the special effect information through a second rendering processor, and the first rendering processor is different from the second rendering processor. For example, the second rendering method is a method of rendering the special effect information through a GPU.

[0103] It should be noted that the present disclosure does not make special limitations on the specific method of determining the rendering method of the special effect information according to the display type of the special effect information and the specific type of the rendering processor used in each rendering method.

[0104] Through the above steps S610 - S620, it can be determined that when the size attribute of the special effect information is greater than a preset size, or the stretching attribute of the special effect information is stretching, or the dynamic attribute of the special effect information is dynamic, the display type of the special effect information is the second display type, and when the display type of the special effect information is the second display type, determine that the rendering method of the special effect information is the second rendering method.

[0105] In an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure, when the display type of the special effect information includes the first display type and the second display type, determine that the rendering method of the special effect information is the third rendering method. Wherein, the third rendering method is a method of rendering the special effect information through the first rendering processor and the second rendering processor. Specifically, when the window level of the special effect information is the bottom layer and the display type of the special effect information includes the first display type and the second display type, different rendering processors can be used to render the special effect information simultaneously.

[0106] For example, the display attributes of the special effect information include the display size and the stretching attribute. Among them, the display size is less than the preset size, and the stretching attribute is stretching. At this time, the display attributes of the special effect information include the first display type (display size) and the second display type (stretching attribute). Therefore, it can be determined that the rendering method of the special effect information is the third rendering method, and the third rendering method is to perform hybrid rendering of the special effect information through the CPU and the GPU.

[0107] In an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure, as Figure 7As shown, in response to a special effect display instruction, the special effect information corresponding to the to-be-displayed special effect can be obtained, and the operation response type associated with the special effect information can be obtained. When the operation response type associated with the special effect information is an operable type and the window level of the special effect information is not the bottom layer, it is determined that the rendering method of the special effect information is the first rendering method or the second rendering method (rendering the special effect information using the first rendering processor corresponding to the first rendering method, or rendering the special effect information using the second rendering processor corresponding to the second rendering method; for example, the first rendering processor can be a CPU, and the second rendering processor can be a GPU); when the operation response type associated with the special effect information is an inoperable type, or when the operation response type associated with the special effect information is an operable type and the window level of the special effect information is the bottom layer, the rendering method of the special effect information can be determined according to the display type of the special effect information, including the first rendering method, the second rendering method, and the third rendering method (the first rendering method is to render the special effect information using the first rendering processor, the second rendering method is to render the special effect information using the second rendering processor, and the third rendering method is to render the special effect information using the first rendering processor and the second rendering processor; for example, the first rendering processor can be a CPU, and the second rendering processor can be a GPU).

[0108] In an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure, when entering the live broadcast room, a special effect instruction response module is constructed, and a special effect display instruction is triggered through a special effect instruction trigger module. Among them, the special effect instruction trigger module is used to indicate the content related to triggering the special effect display instruction in the live broadcast room, and is used to determine the rendering method of the special effect information. Specifically, when entering the live broadcast room, it is necessary to construct the framework and various modules that make up the live broadcast room. Among them, the special effect instruction response module is the content related to triggering the special effect display instruction in the live broadcast room.

[0109] For example, the special effects in the live broadcast room can include gift-giving special effects. The special effect instruction trigger module can include a gift display function and a gift-giving function. Gifts can be displayed through the gift display function, and gifts can be given through the gift-giving function. When receiving an operation of giving a gift, a special effect display instruction can be triggered through the special effect instruction trigger module.

[0110] In addition, the special effect instruction response module can also be used to determine the rendering method of the special effect information. Specifically, after triggering the special effect display instruction, in response to the special effect display instruction, the special effect information corresponding to the to-be-displayed special effect can be obtained, the operation response type associated with the special effect information can be obtained, and the rendering method of the special effect information can be determined according to the operation response type associated with the special effect information.

[0111] Further, reference may be made to the embodiments of the rendering method for determining special effect information above, and the rendering method of the special effect information is determined by the special effect instruction response module.

[0112] In an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure, the special effect rendering module may be detected. When the special effect rendering module does not exist, the special effect rendering module is constructed, and the rendering method of the special effect information determined by the special effect instruction response module is obtained through the special effect instruction response module. The special effect information is rendered in the special effect rendering module through the rendering method of the special effect information. When the special effect rendering module exists, the rendering method of the special effect information determined by the special effect instruction response module is obtained through the special effect instruction response module, and the special effect information is rendered in the special effect rendering module through the rendering method of the special effect information. Refer to Figure 8 As shown, when the special effect rendering module exists, the rendering method of the special effect information determined by the special effect instruction response module is obtained through the special effect instruction response module, and the special effect information is rendered in the special effect rendering module through the rendering method of the special effect information, which may include the following steps S810 to S830:

[0113] Step S810, detecting the special effect rendering module;

[0114] In an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure, after entering the live broadcast room through the above steps and constructing the special effect instruction response module, the special effect rendering module may be detected. Among them, the special effect rendering module is used to render the special effect information through the rendering method of the special effect information. Specifically, the special effect rendering module may be detected in the cache of the terminal device.

[0115] Specifically, the special effect rendering module may be the special effect rendering module created when entering the live broadcast room before this entry into the live broadcast room. After exiting the live broadcast room, the special effect rendering module may be stored, and when detecting, the stored special effect rendering module may be detected.

[0116] It should be noted that the present disclosure does not make special limitations on the specific method for detecting the special effect rendering module.

[0117] Step S820, when the special effect rendering module does not exist, constructing the special effect rendering module, obtaining the rendering method of the special effect information determined by the special effect instruction response module through the special effect instruction response module, and rendering the special effect information in the special effect rendering module through the rendering method of the special effect information;

[0118] Step S830, when the special effect rendering module exists, obtaining the rendering method of the special effect information determined by the special effect instruction response module through the special effect instruction response module, and rendering the special effect information in the special effect rendering module through the rendering method of the special effect information.

[0119] In an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure, when detecting the special effect rendering module through the above steps and the special effect rendering module is not detected, it indicates that the user enters the live broadcast room for the first time. At this time, it is necessary to construct the special effect rendering module, and the special effect rendering module obtains the rendering method of the special effect information determined by the special effect instruction response module, and renders the special effect information in the special effect rendering module through the obtained rendering method of the special effect information; when the special effect rendering module is detected, it indicates that the user is not entering the live broadcast room for the first time. At this time, the special effect rendering module can directly obtain the rendering method of the special effect information determined by the special effect instruction response module, and render the special effect information in the special effect rendering module through the obtained rendering method of the special effect information.

[0120] Specifically, after constructing the special effect instruction response module and detecting the special effect rendering module, when there is no special effect rendering module, the special effect rendering module can be constructed, and the communication between the special effect instruction response module and the special effect rendering module can be established. For example, socket (socket) can be used to establish the communication between the special effect instruction response module and the special effect rendering module.

[0121] Through the above steps S810 to S830, the special effect rendering module can be detected. When there is no special effect rendering module, the special effect rendering module is constructed, the rendering method of the special effect information determined by the special effect instruction response module is obtained through the special effect instruction response module, and the special effect information is rendered in the special effect rendering module through the rendering method of the special effect information. When there is a special effect rendering module, the rendering method of the special effect information determined by the special effect instruction response module is obtained through the special effect instruction response module, and the special effect information is rendered in the special effect rendering module through the rendering method of the special effect information.

[0122] In an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure, in response to the close instruction for the live broadcast room, the live broadcast room can be closed, the special effect instruction response module can be deleted, and the special effect rendering module can be retained.

[0125] In an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure, in response to a close instruction for the live broadcast room, the live broadcast room is closed, and the special effect instruction response module is deleted, while the special effect rendering module is retained. The special effect rendering module is used to implement the rendering of special effects in other live broadcast rooms. Specifically, after the live broadcast room is closed, the communication between the special effect instruction response module and the special effect rendering module can be disconnected, and the special effect rendering module will be retained. When the live broadcast room is opened next time, the special effect rendering module can be detected, and the special effect information can be rendered in the special effect rendering module by means of the rendering method of the special effect information.

[0126] For example, the special effect rendering module can be retained in the cache of the terminal device.

[0127] It should be noted that the present disclosure does not make special limitations on the specific manner of retaining the special effect rendering module.

[0128] Through the above steps S910-S920, in response to a close instruction for the live broadcast room, the live broadcast room can be closed, the special effect instruction response module can be deleted, and the special effect rendering module can be retained. Through the embodiments of the present disclosure, when exiting the live broadcast room, the special effect rendering module can be retained, and when entering other live broadcast rooms, the special effect rendering module can be directly called, avoiding frequent destruction and construction of the special effect rendering module, effectively controlling the performance consumption of the terminal device, improving the fluency of the live broadcast platform, improving the speed of special effect response, and enhancing the user experience of watching the live broadcast.

[0130] Then, the special effect rendering module is detected. When there is a special effect rendering module, the communication between the special effect instruction response module and the special effect rendering module is restored, the rendering method of the special effect information determined by the special effect instruction response module is obtained through the special effect instruction response module, the special effect information is rendered in the special effect rendering module by means of the rendering method of the special effect information, and the special effect to be displayed is displayed in the live broadcast room; when there is no special effect rendering module, a special effect rendering module is constructed, the communication between the special effect instruction response module and the special effect rendering module is established, the rendering method of the special effect information determined by the special effect instruction response module is obtained through the special effect instruction response module, the special effect information is rendered in the special effect rendering module by means of the rendering method of the special effect information, and the special effect to be displayed is displayed in the live broadcast room;

[0131] In response to a close instruction for the live broadcast room, the live broadcast room can be closed, the communication between the special effect instruction response module and the special effect rendering module can be disconnected, the special effect rendering module can be retained and hidden, and when entering other live broadcast rooms, the special effect rendering module can be detected, and the rendering of the special effect can be achieved through the special effect rendering module.
