Abstract

A method and apparatus for video editing includes obtaining a first video draft generated by a first client, the first video draft including first editing capability information supported by the first client and not supported by a second client, editing the first video segment according to the first editing capability information to obtain a second video segment having an overlapping section at a position on a video editing timeline between the first video segment and the first editing capability information, replacing the first video segment with the second video segment in the first video draft and deleting the first editing capability information to obtain a second video draft, and providing the second video draft to a second client. Since the replaced second video draft does not include the editing capability information not supported by the second client, the second client with low editing capability can also open and edit the second video draft, improving the versatility of different types of clients used for video editing.

Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] This application claims the benefit of priority to application number 202210684585.8, filed with the China Patent Office on June 16, 2022, entitled "Method and device for video editing," the entire contents of which are incorporated herein by reference.

[0002] FIELD Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to information technology, and more particularly, to methods and devices for video editing. [Background technology]

[0003] With the development of information processing technology, the application of video editing has become widespread. Video editing schemes support video editing functions on various types of clients. For example, video editing operations can be performed via a web page, a personal computer (PC), or a mobile device.

[0004] Video editing tools logged in through different clients generate video drafts through a series of editing operations, and users can open, edit, or export the same video draft multiple times. However, the current common scheme only supports opening or editing video drafts created by the same type of client. Because clients support different types of terminal devices or different versions of video editing tools, the editing capabilities supported by each client vary, and clients with poor editing capabilities cannot open or edit video drafts generated by other clients. For example, video editing tools logged in from the end of a web page generally support poor performance and editing capabilities, so the video draft a user wants to edit may not be able to be opened.

[0005] To address these issues, the industry needs a solution to improve the compatibility of video editing tools across different execution scenarios. Summary of the Invention

[0020] In order to clarify the objectives, technical solutions and advantages of the embodiments of the present disclosure, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present disclosure will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present disclosure. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present disclosure, but not all embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present disclosure without creative work belong to the scope of protection of the present disclosure.

[0021] In an embodiment of the present disclosure, based on the editing capabilities not supported by the second client, a part of the video segment in the first video draft generated by the first client and the video editing capability information are synthesized into a second video segment, and related content not supported by the second client in the first video draft is replaced to generate a second video draft and provide it to the second client. Because the replaced second video draft does not include the editing capability information not supported by the second client, even a second client with low editing capabilities can open and edit the second video draft, improving the versatility of the video editing tool among different clients.

[0022] 1 is a schematic diagram of a possible application scenario of an embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in FIG. 1, the scenario includes a client and a server system. The client communicates with the server system via a network to realize video editing functions.

[0023] In an embodiment of the present disclosure, the above-mentioned clients may include different types, and different types of clients may be distinguished, for example, by version types of a video editing application, types of terminal devices on which the video editing application is installed, etc. As an example, version types of a video editing application may include different application installation environments, such as a web page end, a personal computer (PC) end, and a mobile end. Alternatively, version types of a video editing application may include updated versions at different times.

[0024] For example, the PC-side version and mobile-side version allow users to download and install an application (APP) or plug-in with video editing functions on a computer device or mobile terminal, perform video editing locally, and then save the edited video locally or upload it to a server system.

[0025] As another example, the web page end version may refer to a case where video editing is performed through a browser, in which a terminal device accesses a server system through the browser and performs the video editing operation through the server system. In practice, the server system receives a video editing request sent by a user through the browser and performs the video editing operation. Alternatively, the browser may download tools and a video draft required for video editing through the server system, cache them locally, and perform the video editing locally. The server system may provide an access service for the video draft, and for example, may store the edited video in the server system, for example, in a database.

[0026] The video draft may be uploaded by the client currently being edited, uploaded by another client and pre-stored in the server system, or preferably provided by the server system itself. For example, the video draft includes video segments and editing capability information. The editing capability information is used to instruct editing operations for the video segments. For example, the editing capability information may include, but is not limited to, image information, special effect information, speed change information, text information, and audio information. The special effect information may include, for example, special effect filters, special effect filter stickers, etc. The editing capability information may be combined with the video segments on a video editing timeline to finally compose a video.

[0027] The terminal devices preferably include, but are not limited to, mobile terminals such as mobile phones, laptops, digital broadcast receivers, personal digital assistants (abbreviated as PDAs), tablets (Portable Android Devices (abbreviated as PADs)), portable multimedia broadcasters (Portable Media Players (abbreviated as PMPs)), and in-vehicle terminals (e.g., in-vehicle navigation terminals), as well as fixed terminals such as digital TVs and desktop computers.

[0028] The server system may refer to a single independent physical server, a server cluster or distributed system including multiple physical servers, or a cloud server. For example, when the server system includes multiple servers, different servers may be responsible for different functions. For example, the multiple servers may include, but are not limited to, a scheduling server that distributes loads based on the load of the logical servers, a logical server that provides a front-end interface for accessing a database and performs video editing tasks, a database for storing video data and providing tools and materials required for video editing, and a video compositing server that performs video compositing operations based on video drafts and related editing operations to generate videos.

[0029] As mentioned above, the prior art only supports opening and editing a video draft using the same type of client, which limits the cases where the same video draft is edited through different types of clients, affecting the user experience and application flexibility.

[0030] To solve the above problems, an embodiment of the present disclosure provides a method and device for video editing, which performs a capability analysis on a video draft to determine editing capabilities that are not supported by a client, synthesizes a first video segment and the unsupported editing capabilities in the video draft into a second video segment, and replaces the unsupported editing capabilities and the first video segment in the video draft with the second video segment, so that clients with low editing capabilities can also open and edit the video draft, thereby improving the versatility of video editing tools for different clients.

[0031] 2 is a flowchart of a method for video editing according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. This method may be performed by the server system of FIG. 1 or by other devices. As shown in FIG. 2, this method includes the following steps:

[0032] S201: Obtain a first video draft generated by a first client, the first video draft including at least one video segment and at least one editing capability information, the at least one editing capability information being used to instruct an editing operation on the at least one video segment, the at least one editing capability information including at least one first editing capability information supported by the first client and not supported by a second client, the first client and the second client being different programs for video editing.

[0033] For example, the video draft may include video segments and editing capability information. The editing capability information is used to instruct editing operations for the video segments. For example, the editing capability information may include, but is not limited to, image information, special effect information, speed change information, text information, and audio information. The special effect information may include, for example, special effect filters, special effect filter stickers, etc. Any one of the above editing capability information may be combined with the video segments on a video editing timeline to finally compose a video.

[0034] Preferably, before obtaining the first video draft, the method of FIG. 2 further includes receiving video request information sent from the second client to request obtaining a video draft corresponding to the video editing task.

[0035] As an example, the user can perform an operation to open a video draft via the second client, which can trigger the second client to send video request information to the server system.

[0036] For example, the video request information may include address information of the first video draft, which can be obtained based on the address information. The first video draft may be stored in a server system, for example, in a database in the server system, or in another type of memory device.

[0037] It should be understood that the editing capabilities supported by different clients vary depending on the type of client. For example, the different client types include different types of terminal devices and different versions of video editing applications or plug-ins. For example, if a client logs in using a browser or if the version of the video editing application is an older version, fewer editing capabilities are supported.

[0038] Preferably, the first client and the second client are different types of clients, for example, the first client and the second client may have different versions of the video editing application, or the first client and the second client may have different types of terminal devices.

[0039] For example, the first client may be a PC end, and the second client may be a web page end.

[0040] For example, a webpage end can also use a browser to access the server system to open and edit a video draft, for example, the webpage end can present a video editing webpage and a user interaction interface through the browser, the browser collects video editing instructions input by the user through the user interaction interface, edits the video draft according to the video editing instructions, and uploads the edited draft to the server system for storage.

[0041] S202, edit a first video segment according to at least one first editing capability information to obtain a second video segment, where the first video segment is a video segment among the at least one video segment, and the first video segment has an overlapping section with a position on the video editing timeline of the at least one first editing capability information.

[0042] Here, the above-mentioned "editing a first video segment according to at least one first editing capability information to obtain a second video segment" may refer to compositing the first video segment with at least one first editing capability information into a second video segment. As an example, the task of obtaining the second video segment may be realized by a dedicated server in a server system. For example, the server system may include a logic server and a video compositing server, and the logic server may initiate the composition task of the second video segment and send information necessary for the composite video, including the first video segment and at least one editing capability information, to the video compositing server. After compositing the second video segment, the video compositing server may send the second video segment to the logic server.

[0043] For example, the server system may obtain a pre-stored first editing capability list indicating editing capability information not supported by different client types when determining at least one first editing capability information not supported by the second client. For example, the first editing capability list may include editing capability information not supported by a browser, at least one terminal device type, or at least one video editing application version. The first editing capability list may be compiled in advance by a technology developer, stored in the server system, and updated later. The server system may query the first editing capability list for editing capability information not supported by the second client according to the type of the second client.

[0044] Preferably, the second client can send information indicating the type of the second client to the server system, or the server system can determine the type of the second client based on the communication method with the second client.

[0045] After determining the editing capability information that is not supported by the second client, the server system can determine the first editing capability information that is supported by the first client and not supported by the second client by filtering the first video draft, and perform a synthesis process on the first video segment corresponding to the first editing capability information to generate a second video segment.

[0046] The server system can send notification information to the second client to notify the second client of the progress of the composition task of the second video segment.

[0047] S203, in the first video draft, replace the first video clip with a second video clip, and delete at least one piece of first editing capability information for the second video draft.

[0048] It should be understood that after replacing the first video clip with the second video clip and deleting at least one piece of first editing capability information, the first editing capability information that is not supported by the second client is synthesized into the second video segment, so that the second video draft does not contain any editing capabilities that the second client does not support, and the second client can successfully open and edit the second video draft, thereby solving the problem of versatility in which different types of clients open the same video draft and improving the user experience.

[0049] It should also be understood that in the second video draft, editing functions supported by the second client can be performed based on the second video segment, in other words, the second video segment can be edited as the original video.

[0050] After generating the second video draft, the server system can preferably send notification information to the second client to notify the second client that the second video draft can be opened and edited.

[0051] S204, providing the second video draft to the second client.

[0052] For example, a second video draft can be sent to the second client, and after the second client receives the second video draft, a user can open and edit the second video draft through the second client.

[0053] In an embodiment of the present disclosure, based on the editing capabilities not supported by the second client, a part of the video segment in the first video draft generated by the first client and the video editing capability information are synthesized into a second video segment, and related content not supported by the second client in the first video draft is replaced to generate a second video draft and provide it to the second client. Because the replaced second video draft does not include the editing capability information not supported by the second client, even a second client with low editing capabilities can open and edit the second video draft, improving the versatility of the video editing tool among different clients.

[0054] Preferably, the method of FIG. 2 further includes recording draft repair information for indicating an associative relationship between the second video fragment and the first video fragment, and the at least one first editability information.

[0055] In some examples, the server system can store the draft repair information in a database and record the content accordingly, such as the identification information of the second video draft and the identification information of the second client.

[0056] The above draft correction information can be used to restore the video draft to a version with more editing capabilities in a subsequent process. For example, when the second client applies the edited third video draft, the third video draft is edited based on the second video draft. The server system can use the draft repair information to restore the editability information deleted from the third video draft. This is convenient for other types of clients to open and edit the video draft in a subsequent process.

[0057] Alternatively, the method of FIG. 2 includes receiving a third video draft sent from a second client, the third video draft being a video draft edited based on the second video draft, the third video draft including a second video segment, and replacing the second video segment of the third video draft with the first video segment based on the draft modification information, and adding at least one first editing capability information for a fourth video draft.

[0058] As an example, the server system can receive video storage request information sent from a second client to request storage of a third video draft, where the third video draft is a video draft edited from the second video draft, and the server system replaces the second video segment of the third video draft with the first video segment based on the draft repair information and adds at least one first editing capability information to obtain a fourth video draft, and the server system can store the fourth video draft in a database.

[0059] In an embodiment of the present disclosure, when a second client completes editing of the video draft and requests to store the video draft in the database, the server system can, based on the draft restoration information, reversely restore the editing capabilities deleted from the video draft so that other types of clients can turn on and edit the video draft in subsequent processes, thereby improving the applicability of video editing used by different types of clients and improving the user experience.

[0060] 3 is a specific flowchart of a method for video editing according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. Here, FIG. 3 mainly illustrates a processing scheme for a user to open and edit a video draft, and takes the example of a client on the web side and a server system including a logic server and a video compositing server. As shown in FIG. 3, the method includes the following steps:

[0061] S301, the client displays a human interaction interface in the browser to the user, and the user performs an operation of opening a video draft through the human interaction interface.

[0062] S302: The client transmits video request information for requesting acquisition of a video draft of a video to be edited to the logical server via the browser.

[0063] S303, the logical server obtains the first video draft.

[0064] The video request information may include address information of the first video draft, so as to facilitate obtaining the first video draft based on the address information. The first video draft may be stored in a server system, for example, in a database in the server system, or preferably in other types of memory devices.

[0065] S304, the logic server performs capability analysis on the client based on the video editing request to determine at least one first editing capability information that the client does not support.

[0066] For example, the logical server may filter the first video draft based on a pre-stored "list of editing capabilities not supported by the browser" to determine whether the first video draft contains at least one first editing capability that the browser does not support. If not, the logical server may directly send the first video draft to the client. If present, the logical server may initiate a video replacement process and proceed to the next step.

[0067] S305, the logic server sends a compositing task of the second video segment to the video compositing server based on at least one first editing capability information that is not supported by the client.

[0068] For example, the logic server can initiate a compositing task for the second video segment and send information required for the composite video, such as the first video segment, at least one first editing capability information, to the video compositing server.

[0069] As an example, the at least one first editing capability information may include a visual element that uses an editing capability that the client does not support, or a visual element that is associated with an editing capability that the client does not support.

[0070] Alternatively, the logic server can preferably send notification information to the client to inform the client of the progress of the composition task of the second video segment.

[0071] S306, the video composition server composes the second video segment and returns the second video segment to the logic server.

[0072] For example, the video compositing server can composite a second video segment based on the first video segment sent by the logical server and the at least one piece of first editing capability information, and send the second video segment to the logical server.

[0073] S307, the logic server replaces the first video segment of the first video draft with the second video segment, and deletes at least one piece of first editing capability information for the second video draft.

[0074] In step S308, the logical server records the related information during the replacement into the draft repair information and stores it in the database.

[0075] For example, the draft repair information may include an association relationship between the second video segment and the first video segment and at least one piece of first editing capability information.

[0076] S309, the logic server sends the second video draft and notification information to the client to facilitate the client's operation of editing the second video draft.

[0077] Here, the notification information is used to notify the client that the client can start editing the second video draft.

[0078] S310, the user video-edits the second video draft through the client.

[0079] The server system generates a second video segment by combining a portion of the video segment in the first video draft generated by the first client with the video editing capability information based on the editing capability not supported by the second client, and replaces the related content in the first video draft that is not supported by the second client to generate a second video draft and provide it to the second client. Because the replaced second video draft does not include the editing capability information not supported by the second client, even a second client with low editing capability can open and edit the second video draft, thereby improving the versatility of the video editing tool among different clients.

[0080] 4 is a specific flowchart of a method for video editing according to another embodiment of the present disclosure. Here, FIG. 4 mainly illustrates a process for storing a video draft after a client completes video editing, taking a web page as the client and a server system including a logical server as an example. As shown in FIG. 4, the method includes the following:

[0081] S401: The client displays a human interaction interface in a browser to a user, and the user performs an operation to save a third video draft through the human interaction interface, where the third video draft is a video draft edited from the second video draft.

[0082] S402, the client sends a third video draft and video storage request information used to request storage of the third video draft to the logical server.

[0083] In step S403, the logical server queries the database to determine whether the draft repair information related to the third video draft is stored, and if so, obtains the draft repair information and executes step S404. If not, the logical server directly stores the third video draft in the database and terminates the process.

[0084] S404, the logic server replaces the second video segment of the third video draft with the first video segment based on the draft repair information, and adds at least one first editing capability information for the fourth video draft.

[0085] It can be understood that the logical server can insert the editing capabilities that were removed before inserting them into the third video draft, and the visual elements affected by the editing capabilities, to obtain a fourth video draft complete with the editing capabilities.

[0086] S405, the logic server stores the fourth video draft in the database for easy use by other types of clients.

[0087] The clients may include other types of terminal devices or other types of versions of video editing applications.

[0088] When the client completes editing the video draft and requests that the video draft be stored in the server system, the server system will recover the deleted editing capabilities from the video draft based on the draft restoration information stored in the database, allowing other types of clients to view and edit the video draft in subsequent processes, thereby improving the applicability of video editing for different types of clients and improving the user experience.

[0089] 5 is a structural block diagram of a device 500 for video editing according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. For convenience of explanation, only parts relevant to the embodiment of the present disclosure are shown.
