[0028] It should be noted that the concepts such as "first" and "second" mentioned in this application are only used to distinguish different devices, modules or units, and are not used to limit the order or interdependence of the functions performed by these devices, modules or units.

[0029] It should be noted that the modifications of "one" and "plurality" mentioned in the present application are illustrative rather than restrictive, and those skilled in the art should understand that unless otherwise clearly indicated in the context, it should be understood as "one or more".

[0030] The following is a detailed description of the method for downloading media resources provided by the present application in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific implementation methods.

[0031] Figure 1 This is a flowchart of a method for downloading media resources in an embodiment of the present application. This embodiment can be applicable to the scheduled downloading of media resources. The method can be executed by a downloading device for media resources. The downloading device for media resources can be implemented in software and / or hardware. The downloading device for media resources can be configured in a client device.

[0032] A client device is a terminal device used to access services, resources, or applications in a network environment. It can connect to the server through the network, send requests to the server, and receive responses to download media resources. Client devices may include one or more of the following: personal computers, mobile devices, smart TVs, wearable devices, Internet of Things (IoT) devices, etc.

[0033] Furthermore, the method for downloading media resources provided in the embodiments of the present application may be executed by a multimedia application installed in a client device or a browser installed in a client device.

[0034] like Figure 1 As shown, the method for downloading media resources provided in the embodiment of the present application mainly includes steps S101-S104.

[0035] S101: In response to a scheduled download instruction for a media resource to be downloaded, add the media resource to be downloaded to a scheduled list.

[0036] Media resources usually refer to various forms of content and materials used in the fields of communication, advertising, entertainment, etc. Media resources can be any form of multimedia content such as text, images, audio, video, animation, etc. Media resources are used to convey information, tell stories, express opinions or conduct marketing promotion.

[0037] Media resources to be downloaded usually refer to multimedia resources that have been determined to be downloaded but have not yet been downloaded from the server to the client device. For example, in a multimedia application, when a user browses audio and video resources, the audio and video resources that have not been downloaded locally can be called media resources to be downloaded. The above-mentioned media resources to be downloaded can be a movie resource or one or more episode resources in a film or TV series.

[0038] The scheduled download instruction can be understood as an instruction that allows the user to schedule in advance that the media to be downloaded will automatically start downloading at a certain time in the future.

[0039] In one possible implementation, for each media resource, the corresponding reservation download control is displayed in the interface of the client device. In response to the trigger operation of the reservation download control, the reservation download function for the media resource is turned on, the media resource is set as a media resource to be downloaded, and is added to the reservation list.

[0040] In one possible implementation, Figure 2 As shown, a switch control 22 corresponding to the scheduled download instruction is displayed in the to-be-downloaded media resource display page 21, and a switch control 22 corresponding to the scheduled download instruction is set for each to-be-downloaded media resource. When the switch control 22 of the to-be-downloaded media resource is in the on state, in response to the triggering operation on the switch control 22, the scheduled download function of the to-be-downloaded media resource is turned off; when the switch control 22 of the to-be-downloaded media resource is in the off state, in response to the triggering operation on the switch control 22, in response to receiving the scheduled download instruction of the to-be-downloaded media resource.

[0041] The to-be-downloaded media resources correspond to the switch controls of the scheduled download function in a one-to-one manner, and the switch operation of the scheduled download function for one of the to-be-downloaded media resources does not affect the states of the scheduled download functions of other to-be-downloaded media resources.

[0042] In another possible implementation, in response to a scheduled download instruction for a media resource to be downloaded, the media resource to be downloaded is added to a reservation list, including: in response to a scheduled download instruction for the target media content, obtaining a media resource list of the target media content; and treating the media resources in the media resource list as media resources to be downloaded and adding them to the reservation list.

[0043] The above media content refers to a resource collection composed of multiple media resources combined together. The target media content can be understood as the media content provided by the server that can enable the download reservation function. The target media content is a resource collection including multiple related media resources. For example: it can be a film and television drama including multiple episodes, or a resource collection consisting of multiple food production videos.

[0044] The above media resource list can also be called a broadcast schedule list, which is usually a pre-arranged release schedule of media resources on a radio or network platform. The media resource list lists in detail the various media resources included in the target media content, the release time of the media resources, the release time, etc.

[0045] When a reservation download instruction of the target media content is received, a media resource list of the target media content is obtained, and the media resources in the media resource list that have not been downloaded are taken as media resources to be downloaded and added to the reservation list.

[0046] In a possible implementation, when the scheduled download function of a target media content is enabled, the target media content and the media resources to be downloaded corresponding to the target media content are stored in the form of a key-value pair. Specifically, the identifier of the target media content is stored in the key, and the resource identifier of the media resources to be downloaded corresponding to the target media content is stored in the value. For example: the identifier of the target media content is TV series A, and the resource identifiers in the scheduled list are 4 and 5, then the storage format in the scheduled list is key: [TV series A]; value: [4, 5].

[0047] S102: Obtain the publishing status of the media resource to be downloaded.

[0048] The publishing status of the media resources to be downloaded includes: unpublished status and published status. Media resources in unpublished status usually refer to media resources that have been created or prepared by the server, but have not yet been officially disclosed or released to the public. For example: a movie resource that has not been launched online, a game resource that has not been launched online, or a TV series resource that has not been launched online, etc. Media resources in published status refer to multimedia resources that have been officially disclosed to the public by the server and can be accessed online, but have not yet been downloaded to the client device due to personal reasons of the user (for example: network status restrictions, storage space restrictions, etc.).

[0049] The detailed information of the media resource to be downloaded is obtained from the server or the client device locally, and the publishing status of the media resource to be downloaded is extracted from the detailed information.

[0050] S103: If the publishing status of the media resource to be downloaded meets the preset condition, obtain the network type of the client device.

[0051] The network type of the client device refers to the specific method used by the client device to access the Internet or a local area network.

[0052] Common network types include the following: Wi-Fi (wireless LAN): connect to the network through wireless signals provided by wireless routers or other wireless access points. Mobile data (cellular network): use services provided by operators to access the Internet, including 2G, 3G, 4G LTE and 5G technologies. Ethernet (wired LAN): directly connect devices to routers or switches through network cables, providing stable and fast data transmission. Fiber broadband: use optical cables to transmit data, providing extremely high download and upload rates.

[0053] Obtaining the network type of the client device includes: detecting the current network type of the client device through an API provided by the operating system.

[0054] In a possible implementation, if the publishing status of the media resource to be downloaded meets a preset condition, obtaining the network type of the client device includes: if the publishing status of the media resource to be downloaded switches from an unpublished state to a published state, obtaining the network type of the client device.

[0055] If the publishing status of the media resource to be downloaded changes from the unpublished state, a publishing notification from the server is monitored. If the publishing notification for the media resource to be downloaded sent by the server is monitored, it indicates that the unpublished media resource has been published, that is, the publishing status of the media resource to be downloaded is switched from the unpublished state to the published state.

[0056] In the embodiment of the present application, the unpublished media resources to be downloaded are added to the reservation list, and then the release notification of the media resources to be downloaded is monitored. After monitoring the release notification of the media resources to be downloaded, the network type of the client device is obtained. In this way, it can be ensured that the user can download the newly released media resources in time and enjoy a seamless service experience.

[0057] In a possible implementation, if the publishing status of the media resource to be downloaded meets a preset condition, obtaining the network type of the client device includes: if the publishing status of the media resource to be downloaded is a published state, obtaining the network type of the client device.

[0058] When the publishing status of the media resource to be downloaded is the published status, since the media resource to be downloaded has been published, the network type of the client device is obtained. In this way, the published media resource can be scheduled for download, and the media resource can be downloaded to the client device in advance to avoid the problem of media resource playback jamming.

[0059] S104: When the network type of the client device is the set network type, send an acquisition instruction of the to-be-downloaded media resources to the server to download the to-be-downloaded media resources in the reservation list.

[0060] The setting type includes wireless local area network, wireless local area network or fiber broadband. In other words, when the network type of the client device is wireless local area network, wireless local area network or fiber broadband, an acquisition instruction of the media resources to be downloaded is sent to the server to download the media resources to be downloaded in the reservation list.

[0061] When the network type of the client device is the set network type, an acquisition instruction for the media resource to be downloaded is generated. The acquisition instruction includes the resource identifier, file name, etc. of the media resource to be downloaded. The acquisition instruction can be an HTTP request, which is used to request the server to obtain the media resource corresponding to the resource identifier included in the acquisition instruction.

[0062] In a specific application scenario, when the client device is a mobile terminal, such as a mobile phone, tablet computer, smart watch, wearable device or other mobile smart terminal, and when the network type of the client device is a wireless local area network (Wi-Fi), an acquisition instruction for the media resources to be downloaded is sent to the server to download the media resources to be downloaded in the reservation list.

[0063] When the network type of the client device is mobile data, it is prohibited to send acquisition instructions for the media resources to be downloaded to the server, so as to avoid the consumption of mobile traffic and bring unnecessary expenses to the user.

[0064] In a possible implementation, after downloading the to-be-downloaded media resources in the reservation list, the method further includes: in response to a download success message of the to-be-downloaded media resources, deleting the successfully downloaded media resources from the reservation list.

[0065] The download success message can be understood as a message that the media resource to be downloaded is successfully downloaded to the client device. In response to the download success message of the media resource to be downloaded, it indicates that the media resource to be downloaded has been successfully downloaded to the client device, and it is no longer necessary to download the media resource to be downloaded. The media resource to be downloaded is deleted from the reservation list to avoid repeated downloading of the media resource.

[0066] The embodiment of the present application provides a method for downloading media resources, the method comprising: in response to a scheduled download instruction for a media resource to be downloaded, adding the media resource to be downloaded to a scheduled list; obtaining the publishing status of the media resource to be downloaded; if the publishing status of the media resource to be downloaded meets a preset condition, obtaining the network type of the client device; when the network type of the client device is a set network type, sending an acquisition instruction for the media resource to be downloaded to a server to download the media resource to be downloaded in the scheduled list. Since the media resource to be downloaded is scheduled for download, when the network type of the client device meets the requirements, the media resource is automatically downloaded, and automatic scheduled download is realized, and the media resource is downloaded to the client device in advance, avoiding the problem of media resource playback jams.

[0067] On the basis of the above-mentioned embodiments, the embodiments of the present application further optimize the method for downloading media resources, such as Figure 3 As shown, the method for downloading media resources optimized in the embodiment of the present application mainly includes steps S201-S206.

[0068] S201: In response to a scheduled download instruction for a media resource to be downloaded, add the media resource to be downloaded to a scheduled list.

[0069] S202: Obtain the publishing status of the media resource to be downloaded.

[0070] S203: If the publishing status of the to-be-downloaded media resource meets a preset condition, obtain the network type of the client device.

[0071] S201-S203 provided in the embodiment of the present application is the same as the execution process of S101-S103 provided in the above embodiment. For details, please refer to the description in the above embodiment, which will not be repeated in the embodiment of the present application.

[0072] S204: When the network type of the client device is a set network type, obtain a user's preference type, where the preference type is used to reflect attribute information of a media resource.

[0073] The preference type is used to reflect the attribute information of the media resource. The user's preference type can be understood as the user's inclination and selectivity for the attribute information of the media resource when watching the media resource. Specifically, the user's preference type may include a resolution preference. The resolution includes at least one of the following: standard definition, high definition, full high definition, 2K, 4K, 8K, etc.

[0074] The user's preference type can be determined based on the user's historical viewing data. Exemplarily, the user's historical viewing data is periodically counted, and the historical viewing data includes multiple media resources that the user has watched and the resolution values ​​of the watched media resources. For each resolution value, the ratio of the number of media resources corresponding to the resolution value to the total amount of media resources in the period is counted. If the ratio exceeds the set value, the resolution value corresponding to the ratio exceeding the set value is used as the user's resolution preference. For example: Taking the set value of 50% as an example, in the past week, the ratio of the number of 2K media resources watched by users to the total amount of media resources in the period is 70%, and the ratio exceeds the set value of 50%. Therefore, the resolution of 2K is used as the user's resolution preference.

[0075] S205: Add the preference type to the instruction for obtaining the media resource to be downloaded, and send the instruction for obtaining the media resource to be downloaded to the server.

[0076] In the embodiment of the present application, the acquisition instruction includes the resource identifier and file name of the media resource to be downloaded, and also includes the preference type. For example, when the user's preference type is 8K resolution, 8K resolution is added to the acquisition instruction of the media resource to be downloaded.

[0077] Through the network connection between the client device and the server, an acquisition instruction for the media resource to be downloaded is sent to the server.

[0078] S206: Receive the to-be-downloaded media resources that match the preference type and are fed back by the server.

[0079] After receiving the acquisition instruction sent by the client device, the server parses the resource identifier and preference type of the media resource to be downloaded from the acquisition instruction, and sends the media resource corresponding to the resource identifier and preference type to the client device, and the client device receives the media resource sent by the server. For example: the resource identifier parsed in the acquisition instruction is the 4th episode of TV series A, and the preference type is 8K, then the media resource of the 4th episode of TV series A with a resolution of 8K is sent to the client device, and the client device receives the media resource of the 4th episode of TV series A with a resolution of 8K sent by the server.

[0080] If the server parses the acquisition instruction and finds that the acquisition instruction does not include the user's preferred type, the server sends the media resource with the set resolution value to the client device, and the client device receives the media resource with the set resolution value sent by the server. Optionally, the set resolution value is the maximum resolution value.

[0081] In an embodiment of the present application, when the network type of the client device is a set network type, the media resources to be downloaded that match the user's preference type are downloaded. In this way, media resources that are more in line with the user's viewing habits can be downloaded, thereby realizing intelligent management of media resources.

[0082] On the basis of the above-mentioned embodiments, the embodiments of the present application further optimize the method for downloading media resources, such as Figure 4 As shown, the method for downloading media resources optimized in the embodiment of the present application mainly includes steps S301-S305.

[0083] S301: In response to a scheduled download instruction for a media resource to be downloaded, add the media resource to be downloaded to a scheduled list.

[0084] S302: Obtain the publishing status of the media resource to be downloaded.

[0085] S303: If the publishing status of the to-be-downloaded media resource meets a preset condition, obtain the network type of the client device.

[0086] S301-S303 provided in the embodiment of the present application is the same as the execution process of S101-S103 provided in the above embodiment. For details, please refer to the description in the above embodiment, which will not be repeated in the embodiment of the present application.

[0087] S304: When the network type of the client device is the set network type, determine whether the target application is in the foreground running state. If so, execute S305.

[0088] The target application refers to the application that performs the task of downloading the media resource to be downloaded. The foreground running state refers to the state in which the application or program interface is currently active in the screen area visible to the user and the user can directly interact with it. The target application is in the foreground running state, which usually means that the user is currently using the target application, and its window or interface will be displayed at the forefront of the screen. The user can perform various operations on the window of the target application, such as clicking buttons, dragging elements, etc.

[0089] Determining whether the target application is in the foreground running state includes: monitoring the state changes of all Activities in all applications through an interface with the operating system, and then determining whether the target application is in the foreground running state.

[0090] S305: If the target application is in the foreground running state, an instruction to obtain the media resources to be downloaded is sent to the server to download the media resources to be downloaded in the reservation list.

[0091] When the target application is in the foreground running state, an acquisition instruction for the media resource to be downloaded is generated, which includes the resource identifier, file name, etc. of the media resource to be downloaded. The acquisition instruction is used to request the server to obtain the media resource corresponding to the resource identifier included in the acquisition instruction.

[0092] Through the network connection between the client device and the server, an acquisition instruction for the media resource to be downloaded is sent to the server. After receiving the acquisition instruction sent by the client device, the server parses the resource identifier of the media resource to be downloaded from the acquisition instruction, and sends the media resource corresponding to the resource identifier to the client device. The client device receives the media resource sent by the server.

[0093] When the target application is in the foreground, the media resource download operation is performed. If the target application is in the background or exited, it is prohibited to send instructions to the server to obtain the media resources to be downloaded, so as to reduce the network bandwidth and CPU resources occupied by background downloads, which helps to ensure better performance of the foreground application.

[0094] On the basis of the above-mentioned embodiments, the embodiments of the present application further optimize the method for downloading media resources, such as Figure 5 As shown, the method for downloading media resources optimized in the embodiment of the present application mainly includes steps S401-S406.

[0095] S401: In response to a scheduled download instruction for a media resource to be downloaded, add the media resource to be downloaded to a scheduled list.

[0096] S402: Obtain the publishing status of the media resource to be downloaded.

[0097] S403: If the publishing status of the to-be-downloaded media resource meets a preset condition, obtain the network type of the client device.

[0098] S401-S403 provided in the embodiment of the present application is the same as the execution process of S101-S103 provided in the above embodiment. For details, please refer to the description in the above embodiment, which will not be repeated in the embodiment of the present application.

[0099] S404: When the network type of the client device is the set network type, obtain the required storage capacity of the media resource to be downloaded and the available storage capacity of the client device.

[0100] The required storage capacity of a media resource refers to the amount of space that the media resource needs to occupy on a storage device (such as a hard disk, solid-state drive, cloud storage, etc.). The required storage capacity of the media resource to be downloaded can be obtained from the detailed information of the media resource to be downloaded. The detailed information of the media resource to be downloaded is carried in the release notification when the server releases the media resource.

[0101] The available storage capacity of a client device refers to the actual available space on the device that can be used by users to store data (such as files, applications, media, etc.). The available storage capacity of a client device can be queried in the property information of the client device or obtained through a command line tool.

[0102] In a possible implementation, the storage capacity required for the to-be-downloaded media resource in various resolutions is obtained.

[0103] S405: Determine whether the ratio of the required storage capacity to the available storage capacity is less than a set value.

[0104] The above setting value can be set according to the actual situation, for example, the setting value is 80%. The setting type can also be set according to the actual situation.

[0105] After calculating the ratio of the required storage capacity to the available storage capacity, the ratio is compared with a set value.

[0106] S406: If the ratio is less than a set value, an acquisition instruction of the to-be-downloaded media resources is sent to the server to download the to-be-downloaded media resources in the reservation list.

[0107] If the ratio of the required storage capacity to the available storage capacity is less than the set value, it indicates that the available storage capacity of the client device meets the requirement, and an acquisition instruction for the media resources to be downloaded is sent to the server to download the media resources to be downloaded in the reservation list.

[0108] If the ratio of the required storage capacity of the media resource to be downloaded to the available storage capacity of the client device is greater than or equal to the set value, it indicates that the first prompt information is generated, and the first prompt information is used to prompt the user that the resolution of the media resource is high, which occupies a large amount of storage space, and may cause insufficient storage space of the device after downloading, so as to indicate whether to download the low-resolution media resource to be downloaded. In response to the confirmation operation on the first prompt information, an acquisition instruction of the media resource to be downloaded is sent to the server to download the media resource to be downloaded in the reservation list.

[0109] Furthermore, if the ratio of the required storage capacity of the media resource to be downloaded to the available storage capacity of the device is greater than or equal to 1, it indicates that the available storage capacity of the device is less than the required storage capacity of the media resource, and downloading of the first media resource is prohibited to avoid data loss caused by insufficient device storage space.

[0110] In the embodiment of the present application, when the available storage capacity of the client device meets the requirements, the media resources are downloaded to avoid the problem of insufficient device storage space due to the large capacity required for the media resources.

[0111] On the basis of the above-mentioned embodiment, in the embodiment of the present application, taking the publishing status of the to-be-downloaded media resource as unpublished as an example, the process of adding the to-be-downloaded media resource to the reservation list is further optimized.

[0112] When the scheduled download function is enabled for the target media content and the media resource list of the target media content includes multiple media resources in an unpublished state, the media resources to be downloaded are added to the scheduled list according to the scheduled release time of the media resources. Specifically, the media resource with the scheduled release time closest to the current time is used as the media resource to be downloaded and added to the scheduled list.

[0113] In one possible implementation, when the target application switches from background operation to foreground operation, or the scheduled download function of the target media content switches from an off state to an on state, a media resource list of the target media content is obtained, including multiple media resources in an unpublished state and the planned release time of the media resources in an unpublished state, and the media resource whose planned release time is closest to the current time is used as the media resource to be downloaded, and it is determined whether the media resource to be downloaded is in the scheduled list. If the media resource to be downloaded is not in the scheduled list, the media resource to be downloaded is added to the scheduled list; if the media resource to be downloaded is in the scheduled list, no operation is performed.

[0114] For example, if the media resource to be downloaded obtained from the media resource list is episode 4, determine whether the scheduled list contains episode 4. If the scheduled list does not contain episode 4, add episode 4 to the scheduled list. If the scheduled list contains episode 4, do not perform any operation.

[0115] In one possible implementation, when the target application switches from background operation to foreground operation, or the scheduled download function of the target media content switches from an off state to an on state, a media resource list of the target media content is obtained, including multiple media resources in an unpublished state and the planned release time of the media resources in an unpublished state. The media resource whose planned release time is closest to the current time is used as the media resource to be downloaded, and it is determined whether the media resource to be downloaded carries a deletion tag. When the media resource to be downloaded carries a deletion tag, it is prohibited to add the media resource to be downloaded to the reservation list. The above-mentioned deletion tag is used to indicate that the media resource to be downloaded has been deleted from the reservation list by the user, and the user does not need to download the media resource.

[0116] In an embodiment of the present application, the user can make settings based on the media resources in the reservation list. Specifically, in response to a delete operation on a to-be-downloaded media resource in the reservation list, the media resource is deleted from the reservation list and a deletion tag is added to the media resource.

[0117] For example: the release time of the media resources is 17:00 on August 7, 17:00 on August 8, 17:00 on August 9, and 17:00 on August 10; then, the media resource whose release time is closest to the current time is the media resource that will be released at 17:00 on August 7, and this media resource is added to the reservation list as a media resource to be downloaded. At 13:00 on August 7, in response to receiving a delete operation for the media resource corresponding to 17:00 on August 7, a deletion tag is added to the media resource. Even if the user switches the application from background operation to foreground operation at any time before 17:00 on August 7, the media resource will not be added to the reservation list because it is detected that the media resource carries a deletion tag.

[0118] In this way, it can be avoided that after the user's application is switched from background operation to foreground operation, media resources that the user does not want to download are added to the reservation list.

[0119] In this embodiment, only the media resource in the media resource list closest to the current time is scheduled for download. In response to the download success message of the media resource to be downloaded, the media resource list of the target media content is obtained again, and the media resource in the media resource list closest to the current time is obtained and added to the reservation list. According to the above process, the media resources included in the media resource list are scheduled for download in turn until all the media resources in the media resource list have been successfully downloaded, or in response to the closing operation of the reservation function of the target media content.

[0120] Furthermore, in response to a reservation closing instruction for the target media content, it is prohibited to add the media resources in the media resource list that are in an unpublished state to the reservation list, and the media resources to be downloaded that have been added to the reservation list are retained.

[0121] In the embodiment of the present application, if a closing operation of the reservation function for the target media content is received, the media resource list is no longer obtained, and the media to be downloaded is not obtained from the media resource list and added to the reservation list.

[0122] Furthermore, in response to a closing operation on the reservation function for the target media content, if there are reserved media resources to be downloaded in the reservation list, the media resources to be downloaded in the reservation list will not be deleted, and the publishing status of the media resources to be downloaded in the reservation list will continue to be monitored. When it is detected that the publishing status of the media resources to be downloaded in the reservation list meets the requirements, the network type of the terminal device is obtained.

[0123] In a possible implementation, when the target application switches from background operation or exit state to foreground operation, a media resource list corresponding to the target media content is obtained, and the number of media resources in the published state is obtained from the media resource list. When the number of media resources in the published state exceeds a set value, a download prompt message is displayed to the user, and the download prompt message is used to indicate that the user needs to download too many media resources, which may cause a device storage space alarm. In response to a confirmation operation on the prompt message, all the media resources in the published state are downloaded.

[0124] Furthermore, the download prompt information also includes a plurality of resource identifiers, and in response to a user's selection operation on a resource identifier, the media resource corresponding to the selected resource identifier is downloaded.

[0125] This can avoid the problem of insufficient device storage space due to too many media resources downloaded at one time when the user has not logged into the application for a long time.

[0126] In the embodiment of the present application, the process of adding the media resources to be downloaded to the reservation list is described in combination with a specific application scenario. The media resource list of the target media content includes media resource 1, media resource 2, media resource 3, media resource 4, media resource 5, media resource 6, media resource 7, and media resource 8. Among them, the release time of media resource 1, media resource 2, and media resource 3 is 7:00 p.m. on December 4, the release time of media resource 4 and media resource 5 is 7:00 p.m. on December 5, and the release time of media resource 6 and media resource 7 is 7:00 p.m. on December 9.

[0127] The first application scenario, such as Figure 6a As shown, on the morning of December 4, in response to the trigger operation of the reservation control 42 for the target media content, the reservation function of the target media content is turned on, and in response to the reservation instruction of the target media content, the media resource list 41 is obtained, and the media resource 1, media resource 2, and media resource 3 corresponding to the media resources in the media resource list 41 whose release time meets the preset conditions are added to the reservation list 43. If the publishing message of the media resources corresponding to media resource 1, media resource 2, and media resource 3 is monitored, the download task 44 is executed to download the media resources corresponding to media resource 1, media resource 2, and media resource 3, and then media resource 4 and media resource 5 corresponding to the media resources whose publishing time meets the preset conditions are added to the reservation list 43 from the media resource list; if the publishing message of the media resources corresponding to media resource 4 and media resource 5 is monitored, the download task 44 is executed to download the media resources corresponding to media resource 4 and media resource 5; then media resource 6 and media resource 7 corresponding to the media resources whose publishing time meets the preset conditions are added to the reservation list 43 from the media resource list 41; if the publishing message of the media resource corresponding to media resource 6 and media resource 7 is monitored, the download task 44 is executed to download the media resources corresponding to media resource 6 and media resource 7, and the cycle is repeated until the media resources corresponding to all media resources included in the media resource list corresponding to the target media content are downloaded.

[0128] The second application scenario, such as Figure 6bAs shown, on the morning of December 4, in response to the opening operation of the reservation control 42 for the target media content, the reservation function of the target media content is opened, and in response to the reservation instruction of the target media content, the media resource list 41 is obtained, and the media resources 1, media resources 2, and media resources 3 corresponding to the media resources whose release time meets the preset conditions in the media resource list 41 are added to the reservation list 43. If a closing operation for the reservation control 45 is received before the release message of the media resource corresponding to the media resource 1, the media resource corresponding to the media resource 2, and the media resource corresponding to the media resource 3 is monitored, the media resource 1, media resource 2, and media resource 3 added in the reservation list 43 are retained. When the release message of the media resource corresponding to the media resource 1, the media resource corresponding to the media resource 2, and the media resource corresponding to the media resource 3 is monitored, the download task 44 is executed to download the media resources corresponding to the media resource 1, the media resource 2, and the media resource 3, but the media resource 4, the media resource 5 and the subsequent media resources are no longer added to the reservation list.

[0129] The third application scenario, such as Figure 6c As shown, if on the morning of December 4, in response to the trigger operation of the reservation control 42 for the target media content, the reservation function of the target media content is turned on, and in response to the reservation instruction of the target media content, then the media resource list 41 is obtained, and the media resources 1, media resources 2, and media resources 3 corresponding to the media resources whose release time meets the preset conditions in the media resource list 41 are added to the reservation list 43. If the closing operation of the reservation function is received before the release message of the media resource corresponding to the media resource 1, the media resource corresponding to the media resource 2, and the media resource corresponding to the media resource 3 is monitored, the media resource 1, media resource 2, and media resource 3 added to the reservation list are retained. When the release message of the media resource corresponding to the media resource 1, the media resource corresponding to the media resource 2, and the media resource corresponding to the media resource 3 is monitored, the media resources corresponding to the media resource 1, media resource 2, and media resource 3 are downloaded, but the media resource 4, media resource 5 and subsequent media resources are no longer added to the reservation list. However, if on the morning of December 8, in response to the opening operation of the reservation control 42 for the target media content, the reservation function of the target media content is turned on, and in response to the reservation instruction of the target media content, then the media resource list 41 is obtained, and the media resources 6 and 7 corresponding to the media resources whose release time meets the preset conditions in the media resource list 41 are added to the reservation list 43. If the reservation function of the target media content is continuously turned on, the process is cycled in sequence until the media resources corresponding to all the media resources included in the media resource list corresponding to the target media content are downloaded.

[0130] The fourth application scenario, such as Figure 6dAs shown, if on the morning of December 4, in response to the opening operation of the reservation control 42 for the target media content, the reservation function of the target media content is turned on, and in response to the reservation instruction of the target media content, then the media resource list 41 is obtained, and the media resources 1, media resources 2, and media resources 3 corresponding to the media resources whose release time meets the preset conditions in the media resource list 41 are added to the reservation list 43. Then, in response to the closing instruction of the application, thereafter, the opening instruction of the application is not received for a long time. Until the morning of December 10, in response to the opening instruction of the application, the release message of the media resource corresponding to the media resource 1, the media resource corresponding to the media resource 2, and the media resource corresponding to the media resource 3 is monitored, then the download task 44 is executed to download the media resource corresponding to the media resource 1, the media resource corresponding to the media resource 2, and the media resource corresponding to the media resource 3. Then, add media resource 4, media resource 5, media resource 6 and media resource 7 to the reservation list, and monitor the release messages of the media resources corresponding to media resource 4, media resource 5, media resource 6 and media resource 7, download the media resources corresponding to media resource 4, media resource 5, media resource 6 and media resource 7, and if the media resource list 41 also includes other media resources whose release time meets the set conditions, add the media resources whose release time meets the set conditions to the reservation list according to the above steps.
