[0022] The acquisition module is used to acquire the first playback content of the first program, the second playback content of the second program, and the third playback content of the live broadcast interface of the target channel within a first time unit when receiving the program switching request information sent by the terminal. The program switching request information is a request information for instructing the target program currently being broadcast in the target live broadcast list corresponding to the target channel to be switched from the first program to the second program. The first time unit is the time unit corresponding to the current moment.

[0023] The comparison module is used to compare the third playback content with the first playback content and the second playback content respectively, and obtain a first comparison result;

[0024] The first sending module is configured to send program switching information to the terminal when the first comparison result indicates that the program content corresponding to the third playback content belongs to the second program.

[0025] Optionally, the device further includes:

[0026] The processing module is configured to, when the first comparison result indicates that the program content corresponding to the third playback content belongs to the first program, continue to acquire the playback content of the live interface of the target channel in the second time unit within a preset time period, and compare the playback content of the live interface of the target channel in the second time unit with the first playback content and the second playback content respectively, until the corresponding comparison result indicates that the program content corresponding to the playback content in the second time unit belongs to the second program.

[0027] The second time unit is the time unit following the first time unit.

[0028] Optionally, the device further includes:

[0029] The second sending module is used to send the program switching information to the terminal if, after the preset time period, the corresponding comparison result still indicates that the program content corresponding to the playback content in the second time unit belongs to the first program.

[0030] Optionally, the target program is a program displayed in the target live broadcast list using a preset display mode;

Different processing strategies are executed based on different determination results to avoid inconsistencies between the live programs displayed in the target live streaming list and the programs being streamed by the player. If the currently playing program on the live streaming interface of the target channel belongs to the second program, the target program in the target live streaming list is switched from the first program to the second program, ensuring consistency between the target program in the target live streaming list and the program being streamed on the live streaming interface of the playback application. This improves the consistency between the live programs displayed in the target live streaming list and the programs being streamed by the player. Attached Figure Description

[0050] The technical solutions of the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this application, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0051] Before discussing the exemplary embodiments in more detail, it should be noted that some exemplary embodiments are described as processes or methods depicted as flowcharts. Although the flowcharts describe the steps as sequential processes, many of these steps can be performed in parallel, concurrently, or simultaneously. Furthermore, the order of the steps can be rearranged. A process can be terminated when its operation is complete, but it may also have additional steps not included in the figures. A process can correspond to a method, function, procedure, subroutine, subroutine, etc.

[0052] Furthermore, the terms "first," "second," etc., may be used herein to describe various directions, actions, steps, or elements, but these directions, actions, steps, or elements are not limited by these terms. These terms are only used to distinguish a first direction, action, step, or element from another direction, action, step, or element. For example, without departing from the scope of this application, a first speed difference may be referred to as a second speed difference, and similarly, a second speed difference may be referred to as a first speed difference. Both the first speed difference and the second speed difference are speed differences, but they are not the same speed difference. The terms "first," "second," etc., should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly specifying the number of indicated technical features. Thus, a feature defined as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of that feature. In the description of this invention, "a plurality of" means at least two, such as two, three, etc., unless otherwise explicitly specified.

[0053] The live stream list processing method provided in this application will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings, through specific embodiments and application scenarios.

[0054] See Figure 1 , Figure 1 This is a flowchart illustrating a live stream list processing method according to an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 1 As shown, the live stream list processing method provided in this application embodiment can be applied to a server and includes the following steps:

[0055] Step 101: Upon receiving the program switching request information sent by the terminal, obtain the first playback content of the first program, the second playback content of the second program, and the third playback content of the live broadcast interface of the target channel within the first time unit.

[0056] The aforementioned program switching request information can be understood as a request to switch the target program currently being broadcast in the target live list corresponding to the target channel from the first program to the second program, and the aforementioned first time unit is the time unit corresponding to the current moment.

[0057] The term "target program" does not refer to a specific program, but rather to programs currently being broadcast in the target live stream list. For example, if a program being broadcast in the target live stream list is highlighted, then the target program can be understood as the program in the target live stream list that is currently highlighted. If the currently broadcast program is the first program, then the first program in the target live stream list will be highlighted; and if the currently broadcast program has changed from the first program to the second program, then the second program in the target live stream list will be highlighted, while the highlighting of the first program will be deselected.

[0058] For example, the first program's broadcast time is 09:49-10:35, the second program's broadcast time is 10:35-11:21, and the current time is 10:35. The conventional program switching strategy is usually based on the system time. For example, when the current time is detected as 10:35, the highlighted program in the target live broadcast list is switched from the first program to the second program to inform the user that the program currently being broadcast is the second program. However, due to possible delays in live broadcasts, the first program may still be broadcasting or playing at 10:35, but the live broadcast program displayed in the target live broadcast list is the second program, resulting in a discrepancy between the live broadcast program displayed in the target live broadcast list and the program being broadcast by the player.

[0059] In this application, when the current time is detected to be 10:35, i.e. when it is necessary to switch the target program in the target live broadcast list to the second program, the program switch is not performed directly. Instead, the first playback content of the first program, the second playback content of the second program, and the third playback content of the target channel's live broadcast interface within the first time unit are obtained. Based on the obtained playback content, it is determined which program the current program playing on the target channel's live broadcast interface belongs to, and different processing strategies are executed based on different determination results. This avoids the situation where the live broadcast program displayed in the target live broadcast list is inconsistent with the program being broadcast by the player, thereby improving the consistency between the live broadcast program displayed in the target live broadcast list and the program being broadcast by the player, and improving the user's viewing experience.

[0060] In one embodiment, since the program times displayed in the target live stream list are usually displayed in minutes (e.g., the first program's playback time is 09:49 to 10:35), the playback application can obtain the system time of the mobile phone or other terminal every minute and compare the current time with the start and end times of the programs in the target live stream list. If the current time is greater than or equal to the start time of the program and less than or equal to the end time of the program, the program is highlighted, indicating that the program is being broadcast live by the playback application and is marked as live. At the same time, information such as which program is currently being broadcast and its position in the target live stream list can be recorded locally. This way, the next detection can start the comparison from that position instead of starting from the first program in the target live stream list, thus improving the detection speed.

[0061] Understandably, when a mobile device or other terminal detects that the current time is the playback period of the next program, it stops the minute-by-minute detection task and starts a polling task. This involves detecting the content of the program being played on the live streaming interface of the playback application and sending a program switching request to the server. Upon receiving the program switching request from the terminal, the server obtains the first playback content of the first program, the second playback content of the second program, and the third playback content of the target channel's live streaming interface within the first time unit. Based on the obtained playback content, the server determines whether the currently broadcast program is the content of the first program or the content of the second program, thereby avoiding a situation where the live program displayed in the target live streaming list is inconsistent with the program being broadcast by the player.

[0062] The detection cycle of the terminal-side detection task can be one minute, two minutes, or thirty seconds, which users can set according to their actual needs. Since the program time displayed in the target live broadcast list is usually displayed in minutes, the detection cycle of the detection task can be set to one minute by default. That is, the playback application can obtain the system time of the mobile phone or other terminal every minute to assist in the program switching process.

[0063] The aforementioned playback application can be understood as a video playback application installed on mobile phones and other terminals. Its live streaming function includes multiple live streaming channels, and each live streaming channel includes its own corresponding live streaming list.

[0064] In one embodiment, multiple live streaming channels include, but are not limited to, historical drama channels, martial arts channels, adventure channels, etc.

[0065] For example, if the polling cycle of the above polling task is 5 seconds and the current time is 10:35:00, then the time period corresponding to the first time unit can be understood as 10:35:00 to 10:35:05, and the third playback content can refer to the screenshot information or audio information of the live broadcast interface of the playback application within the time period of 10:35:00 to 10:35:05.

[0066] Step 102: Compare the third playback content with the first playback content and the second playback content respectively, and obtain the first comparison result.

[0067] When the third playback content is an image, the third playback content can be compared with the first playback content and the second playback content respectively by image feature comparison, and the corresponding comparison results can be obtained.

[0068] When the third playback content is audio content, the third playback content can be compared with the first playback content and the second playback content respectively by means of audio feature comparison, and the corresponding comparison results can be obtained.

[0069] Step 103: If the first comparison result indicates that the program content corresponding to the third playback content belongs to the second program, send program switching information to the terminal. The program switching information is used to instruct the terminal to switch the target program in the target live broadcast list from the first program to the second program.

[0070] After receiving the program switching information sent by the server, the terminal can switch the target program in the target live broadcast list from the first program to the second program based on the program switching information, so that the target program in the target live broadcast list is consistent with the program being played on the live broadcast interface of the playback application.

[0071] The aforementioned program switching information can be understood as confirmation information for the aforementioned program switching request information. That is, after the terminal receives the program switching information, it can switch the target program in the target live broadcast list from the first program to the second program and enter the next detection cycle.

[0072] In this embodiment, after receiving the program switching request information sent by the terminal, the server determines which program the currently playing content on the target channel's live streaming interface belongs to based on the obtained first, second, and third playback content. Different processing strategies are executed based on different determination results to avoid inconsistencies between the live programs displayed in the target live streaming list and the programs being streamed by the player. If the currently playing content on the target channel's live streaming interface belongs to the second program, the target program in the target live streaming list is switched from the first program to the second program. This ensures consistency between the target program in the target live streaming list and the program being streamed by the player, improving the user's viewing experience.

[0073] In one embodiment, the first and second playback contents may be playback contents pre-stored in a database, so that the server can directly retrieve the first and second playback contents from the database after receiving a program switching request from the terminal. The third playback content may be image or audio content sent by the terminal.

[0074] In one embodiment, the terminal can send the third playback content and program switching request information to the server together.

[0075] In one embodiment, after comparing the third playback content with the first playback content and the second playback content respectively, and obtaining a first comparison result, the method further includes:

[0076] If the first comparison result indicates that the program content corresponding to the third playback content belongs to the first program, then within a preset time period, the playback content of the live interface of the target channel in the second time unit is continuously acquired, and the playback content of the live interface of the target channel in the second time unit is compared with the first playback content and the second playback content respectively, until the corresponding comparison result indicates that the program content corresponding to the playback content in the second time unit belongs to the second program.

[0077] The second time unit is the time unit following the first time unit.

[0078] In this embodiment, if the first comparison result indicates that the program content corresponding to the third playback content belongs to the first program, the above polling process can continue until the corresponding comparison result indicates that the program content corresponding to the playback content in the second time unit belongs to the second program, thereby realizing the switching of the target program in the target live list, and thus ensuring the consistency between the target program in the target live list and the program being played on the live interface of the playback application.

[0079] In one embodiment, the method further includes:

[0080] If, after the preset time period, the corresponding comparison result still indicates that the program content corresponding to the playback content in the second time unit belongs to the first program, then the program switching information is sent to the terminal.

[0081] In this embodiment, if after a preset time period, the corresponding comparison result still indicates that the program content corresponding to the playback content in the second time unit belongs to the first program, then the polling process ends and program switching information is sent to the terminal to achieve the switching of the target program in the target live broadcast list.

[0082] Since the live stream delay is generally no more than 4 minutes, the above preset duration can be set to 4 minutes.

[0083] The preset duration can also be dynamically adjusted based on the actual live broadcast delay time. Generally, the live broadcast delay will not exceed the preset duration. That is, after the preset duration has elapsed, if the corresponding comparison result still indicates that the program content corresponding to the playback content in the second time unit belongs to the first program, the polling process can be ended directly, and program switching information can be sent to the terminal to achieve the switching of the target program in the target live broadcast list.

[0084] In one embodiment, the target program is a program displayed in the target live stream list using a preset display mode;

[0085] The preset display mode includes at least one of the following:

[0086] Bold font display mode;

[0087] Highlight mode.

[0088] Understandably, the target result in the target live stream list can maintain both highlight mode and bold text mode simultaneously to enhance its distinguishable display from other programs in the target live stream list.

[0089] In one embodiment, the first playback content includes the program content at the end of the first program, the second playback content includes the program content at the beginning of the second program, and the third playback content includes a screenshot of the live broadcast interface of the target channel within a first time unit.

[0090] In this embodiment, by setting the first playback content as the program content at the end of the first program, the comparison efficiency between the third playback content and the first playback content can be improved, and invalid comparisons can be avoided.

[0091] Accordingly, by setting the second playback content as the program content at the beginning of the second program, the comparison efficiency between the third playback content and the second playback content can be improved, and invalid comparisons can be avoided.

[0092] In one embodiment, comparing the third playback content with the first playback content and the second playback content respectively, and obtaining a first comparison result, includes:

[0093] Image feature extraction technology is used to extract image features from the first playback content, the second playback content, and the third playback content, respectively, and the first image feature, the second image feature, and the third image feature are obtained respectively.

[0094] The third image feature is compared with the first image feature and the second image feature respectively, and a first comparison result is obtained.

[0095] In this embodiment, when the first playback content, the second playback content, and the third playback content are all image feature data, image features can be extracted from the first playback content, the second playback content, and the third playback content based on image feature extraction technology, and comparison can be performed based on the extracted image features to obtain the corresponding comparison results, thereby improving the accuracy of the comparison results.

[0096] See Figure 2 , Figure 2 This is a flowchart illustrating a live stream list processing method according to an embodiment of the present invention.

[0097] like Figure 2 As shown, the live stream list processing method provided in this application includes the following steps:

[0098] Step 201: Generate program feature data and store it in the database.

[0099] The server can perform image recognition on each program of each channel in advance, generate corresponding feature data, and store it in the database.

[0100] Furthermore, since the program data required for comparison during program switching is mainly the data from the beginning and end of the program, it is possible to focus on collecting data from the first few minutes and the last few minutes of each program to improve the efficiency of data comparison in subsequent processes.

[0101] Step 202: The live stream player starts playing the program.

[0102] Step 203: Initialize the program list, perform program detection, and determine the programs that are currently being broadcast.

[0103] Step 204: Obtain the current time of the terminal, traverse the program list, highlight the first program that is currently being broadcast, and record the position of the first program in the program list.

[0104] Among them, the first program highlighted in the live stream list is as follows: Figure 3a As shown.

[0105] Step 205: Start the 1-minute scheduled task.

[0106] Step 206: Obtain the current time of the terminal, traverse the program list backward from the current highlighted position in the live broadcast list, determine the second program that meets the highlighting conditions, and record the position of the second program in the program list.

[0107] The above highlighting conditions can be understood as the program start time being less than or equal to the current time, and the program end time being greater than or equal to the current time.

[0108] Step 207: If it is necessary to switch the first program to the second program, stop the 1-minute timed task, start the polling task, and set the polling timeout.

[0109] The polling timeout mentioned above can be understood as the preset duration.

[0110] Step 208: Obtain the first screenshot of the player.

[0111] Taking a screenshot of the player can be understood as taking a screenshot of the program content that the player is currently playing.

[0112] Step 209: Return to the first screenshot.

[0113] Step 210: Request the backend interface and determine the first screenshot, the first program, and the second program.

[0114] Step 211: Extract features from the first screenshot using image recognition technology.

[0115] Step 212: Compare the extracted first screenshot feature data with the information of the first and second programs in the database.

[0116] Step 213: Return the comparison results of the first screenshot belonging to the first program;

[0117] Step 214: Obtain the second screenshot of the player.

[0118] Step 215: Return to the second screenshot.

[0119] Step 216: Request the backend interface and determine the second screenshot, the first program, and the second program.

[0120] Step 217: Extract features from the second screenshot using image recognition technology.

[0121] Step 218: Compare the extracted second screenshot feature data with the information of the first and second programs in the database.

[0122] Step 219: Return the comparison results of the second screenshot belonging to the second program;

[0123] Step 220: Send program switching information and stop polling.

[0124] Step 221: Highlight the second program in the program list.

[0125] Among them, the second program highlighted in the live stream list is as follows: Figure 3b As shown.

[0126] Step 222: Start a 1-minute scheduled task.

[0127] After the scheduled task to start for 1 minute is completed in step 222, the entire process from step 206 to step 222 is re-executed.

[0128] It should be noted that if the polling timeout period has expired, the polling will stop and the process from step 220 to step 222 will be executed.

[0129] In this embodiment of the invention, upon receiving a program switching request from a terminal, the system acquires the first playback content of a first program, the second playback content of a second program, and the third playback content of the target channel's live stream interface within a first time unit. The program switching request is a request to switch the currently broadcast target program in the target live stream list corresponding to the target channel from the first program to the second program. The first time unit is the time unit corresponding to the current moment. The third playback content is compared with both the first and second playback content to obtain a first comparison result. If the first comparison result indicates that the program content corresponding to the third playback content belongs to the second program, program switching information is sent to the terminal. This program switching information instructs the terminal to switch the target program in the target live stream list from the first program to the second program. This improves the consistency between the live programs displayed in the target live stream list and the programs currently broadcast by the player.

[0130] like Figure 4 As shown, this embodiment of the invention also provides a live stream list processing device, applied to a server. The live stream list processing device 400 includes:

[0131] The acquisition module 401 is used to acquire the first playback content of the first program, the second playback content of the second program, and the third playback content of the live broadcast interface of the target channel within a first time unit when receiving the program switching request information sent by the terminal. The program switching request information is a request information used to instruct the target program currently being broadcast in the target live broadcast list corresponding to the target channel to be switched from the first program to the second program. The first time unit is the time unit corresponding to the current moment.

[0132] The comparison module 402 is used to compare the third playback content with the first playback content and the second playback content respectively, and obtain a first comparison result;

[0133] The first sending module 403 is used to send program switching information to the terminal when the first comparison result indicates that the program content corresponding to the third playback content belongs to the second program. The program switching information is used to instruct the terminal to switch the target program in the target live broadcast list from the first program to the second program.

[0134] Optionally, the live stream list processing device 400 further includes:

[0136] The second time unit is the time unit following the first time unit.

[0137] Optionally, the live stream list processing device 400 further includes:
