[0021] The embodiments of this disclosure will be described in detail below, with reference to the drawings, but this disclosure is not limited to these specific embodiments. These specific embodiments below can be combined with one another, and some embodiments may not elaborate on the same or similar concepts or processes. In one or more embodiments, certain features, structures or characteristics can be combined in any suitable manner that will be evident to those skilled in the art from this disclosure.

[0022] It should be understood that this disclosure does not limit how the images or videos to be applied / processed are obtained. In one embodiment of this disclosure, they may be obtained from a storage device, such as internal or external storage, and in another embodiment of this disclosure, they may be captured by activating an imaging assembly. Notwithstanding the context of this specification, the type of image or video is not specifically limited. The image or video may be the original image or video obtained by the imaging device, or it may be an image or video that has already undergone specific processing, such as basic filtering, dealiasing, color correction, contrast correction, or normalization. Notwithstanding the preprocessing operations, the preprocessing operations may further include other types of preprocessing operations known in the art, which are not described in detail here.

[0023] As users' reliance on social networks increases daily, their expectations for the social network experience are also rising, particularly regarding the quality of video subtitles. In related technologies, only video uploaders can edit and post subtitle information for their videos. To further improve the quality of video subtitles, we utilize crowdsourced translation to provide subtitles for videos.

[0024] Figure 1 shows a flowchart of a video processing method according to some embodiments of the present disclosure.

[0025] As shown in Figure 1, the video processing method includes the steps of: receiving the source subtitles added to the video awaiting translation by the video creator in step S1; selecting a translator based on the source subtitles and the language used by the user on the social network in step S3; providing the selected translator with the video awaiting translation and providing the translator with an interaction interface in the video to translate the source subtitles in the video in step S5; receiving the translated subtitles returned by the translator from the interaction page in step S7; and displaying the checked translated subtitles in the video in step S9.

[0026] In step S1, by providing the video creator with an interactive interface for subtitle management, the source text of subtitles added to the video awaiting translation by the video creator can be received.

[0027] Figures 2A-2G show schematic diagrams of subtitle management interaction interfaces according to some embodiments of the present disclosure.

[0028] As shown in Figure 2A, when a video creator plays a video awaiting translation, the video displays an option to "Generate Subtitles," for example, in the form of a banner. Figure 2A may also show the playback count and share status of this video awaiting translation. In Figure 2A, a prompt to generate subtitles may be displayed above the "Generate Subtitles" option. The prompt to generate subtitles disappears when the video creator clicks the "Close" button. This prompt also disappears automatically after the video creator successfully adds subtitles.

[0029] Clicking the "Generate Subtitles" button takes you to the "Add Subtitles" page. On the "Add Subtitles" page, as shown in Figure 2B, the video creator can upload the original subtitle text. Figure 2B may also show the subtitle upload progress, for example, that 20% has already been uploaded. Figure 2B also provides a cancel option, allowing the video creator to click the cancel button if they wish to cancel the subtitle upload operation.

[0030] For creators unfamiliar with subtitle management, such as those using it for the first time, they can open the platform's user guide before adding subtitles to learn how to do so. For example, the guide might inform video creators that they can first generate original subtitles, which can then be automatically translated by translators (e.g., global audiences), and that community translators can help optimize the automatically translated subtitles.

[0031] After the video creator adds subtitles, they may further provide a notification informing viewers that the subtitles will be automatically translated.

[0032] After the video creator uploads the original subtitle text, they can access a preview page, as shown in Figure 2C. As shown in Figure 2C, the preview page displays multiple subtitles, with each subtitle (e.g., one sentence at a time) highlighted. In response to a playback request, the video can be played back in a synchronized manner with the audio and subtitles. The preview page in Figure 2C further provides options such as editing, canceling, and saving. The video creator can perform operations such as editing, canceling, or saving by clicking the appropriate option button, depending on the specific situation.

[0033] Subtitles added by the creator are displayed on the corresponding video playback page, as shown in Figure 2D. In Figure 2D, the creator may also be prompted to adjust the position of the subtitles. The video creator can adjust the position of the subtitles on the video playback page, for example, by dragging.

[0034] Once the subtitle positioning is complete, the subtitles are added and, as shown in Figure 2E, the page displays a message saying "Subtitles added," and provides the video creator with an entry to access the subtitle management page from the "Creator Tools" option in "Settings."

[0035] Figure 2F shows the "Creator Tools" page. Clicking "Manage Subtitles" on this page takes you to the subtitle management page, as shown in Figure 2G. The subtitle management page in Figure 2G displays the subtitle status of the video. The video's subtitle status includes "Waiting for subtitle generation" and "Subtitles added."

[0036] For videos awaiting subtitle generation, the videos are sorted according to their playback count. In some implementations, the video cover on the subtitle management page displays the video playback count, for example, in a language other than the creator's language.

[0037] For videos where subtitles have been added, the subtitle management page may display the type of subtitle translation, for example, whether it belongs to machine translation or community translation. In some embodiments, for videos where subtitles have been added, the subtitle management page may display the number of machine translations and the number of community translations, respectively.

[0038] In some implementations, the subtitle management page arranges videos according to their update time. For example, it can be updated when subtitles are added, when subtitles are translated by a translator, and when the creator deletes the translator's subtitles.

[0039] In the above embodiment, a path is provided from the "Generate subtitles" notification in the video being played to the "Add subtitles" page. Video creation can also be done directly from the "Creator Tools" page shown in Figure 2F. Clicking "Manage subtitles" on that page will take you to the subtitle management page. After entering the subtitle management page, you can add subtitles by clicking the "Generate subtitles" button on the video awaiting translation, or you can add subtitles by clicking the video cover, viewing the video, and then clicking the "Generate subtitles" button on the video.

[0040] For video creators, even if added subtitles have already been submitted, they can still edit the subtitles again from the subtitle management page.

[0041] In step S3, the language used by the user may include at least one of the following: the system language the user is using, the language of the video the user is viewing, and the language the user has entered. For example, if the original subtitles for a video are in English and the user wants them translated into Chinese or Japanese, the translator may be selected from among users whose system language, the language of the video the user is viewing, and the language the user has entered include English, and who also include Chinese or Japanese. Selecting a translator who matches the languages ​​of the original and translated subtitles according to the language the user is using can more effectively improve the quality of the translation and the efficiency of translation checking.

[0042] Translators may be registered community translators or unregistered translators. Unregistered translators may be provided with instructions on how to register as community translators. Selecting and providing translations from already registered translators can further improve the quality of the translations and the efficiency of the translation checking process.

[0043] In some embodiments, translators may be selected based on the type of video awaiting translation and the type of video the user is interested in. For example, the user's expected interest level in different types of videos may be determined based on their historical behavior data, the types of videos the user is interested in may be determined based on that expected interest level, and users whose preferred video types match the types of videos awaiting translation may be selected as translators. Providing translators with their preferred types of videos can improve their willingness to translate, is advantageous for improving the quality of the translation, and can easily reduce the cost of translation checking.

[0044] The following describes step S5, linking Figures 3A-3D. Figure 3A-3C shows a schematic diagram of an interaction interface for translating subtitles in a video according to some embodiments of this disclosure. Figure 3D shows a schematic diagram of instructions for registering as a community translator according to some embodiments of this disclosure.

[0045] In step S5, as shown in Figure 3A, the video awaiting translation is provided only to the selected translator, and an interaction interface is provided in the video for the translator to translate the source subtitles in the video. In Figure 3A, the translated text of the source subtitles in the video is provided to the translator in the form of an information stream in the video. Figure 3A may also show the source subtitles. The interaction interface for translating the source subtitles in the video is not provided to other users except the selected translator.

[0046] As shown in Figure 3B, the system enters a proofreading page in response to an editing request from the translator. In Figure 3B, the proofreading page displays the original subtitle text one by one (e.g., sentence by sentence), with the translation displayed below each original subtitle text, and the editing position is positioned to the translation of the subtitle selected by the translator. The translation may be a machine translation or a subtitle translation provided by another translator.

[0047] The editing interface may include a pop-up keyboard, as shown in Figure 3C. The translator can clear the translation and enter their subtitle translation. After completing the subtitle translation, the translator can submit it to the platform and await review. After passing the review, they receive a notification from the platform. That is, the video processing method further includes sending a notification to the translator after their subtitle translation has passed the review. Of course, the translator can also enter the corresponding task management interface to view the status of their subtitle translation, such as under review, passed, or failed.

[0048] In some embodiments, providing a video interaction interface for translating the original subtitles in the video further includes providing the translator with instructions to register as a community translator, as shown in Figure 3D.

[0049] The following describes step S7 by linking Figures 4A-4C. Figure 4A shows a schematic diagram of a subtitle translation viewing page according to some embodiments of the present disclosure. Figure 4B shows a schematic diagram of a translator information page according to some embodiments of the present disclosure. Figure 5A shows a schematic diagram of a video playback page according to some embodiments of the present disclosure. Figure 5B shows a schematic diagram of a subtitle language management page according to some embodiments of the present disclosure. Figure 5C shows a schematic diagram of a subtitle translation viewing page according to some other embodiments of the present disclosure.

[0050] In step S7, the subtitle translations returned by the translator from the interaction page are received and checked. In some embodiments, the video creator may be notified if there are subtitle translations that have already passed the check. The video creator can view the subtitle translations by following the path provided by the notification, such as the subtitle viewing page shown in Figure 4A. The video creator can also enter the translator information page, as shown in Figure 4B, by clicking the "Find the Translator" button shown in Figure 4A, and view and understand the translator's relevant information. Figure 4B may show the translator's status, such as whether they belong to a community translator, their languages ​​of expertise, and thumbnails of the translator's other translation works (e.g., video covers).

[0051] As shown in Figure 5A, the video creator can also jump to the video playback page by clicking on the video. In Figure 5A, the video playback page displays the original subtitles by default, but language options are provided. Clicking on a language option takes you to the subtitle language management page, as shown in Figure 5B. In Figure 5B, the language of the original subtitles and the languages ​​of various versions of the subtitle translations are presented. As shown in Figure 5C, the video creator can select the subtitle translation in the appropriate language and view the corresponding subtitle translation. Similar to Figure 4A, Figure 5C shows the subtitle translations and displays a "Find Translator" button. As mentioned above, the video creator can click the "Find Translator" button shown in Figure 5C to enter the translator information page, as shown in Figure 4B, and view and understand the translator's relevant information. The video creator can also remove the translator's subtitle translation using the "Remove Translator's Edits" button shown in Figure 5C. The subtitle translation adopted by the video creator is then published.

[0052] The following describes step S9, linking Figures 6A and 6B. Figure 6A shows a schematic diagram of a video playback page according to some other embodiments of the present disclosure. Figure 6B shows a schematic diagram of an interaction interface in which a translator and a viewer interact, according to some embodiments of the present disclosure.

[0053] In step S9, the subtitle translations that passed the check are displayed in the video. As shown in Figure 6A, the original subtitles in the video and the published subtitle translations are synchronized with the video's audio.

[0054] In some embodiments, the video processing method further includes providing an interaction interface in the video for the translator and the viewer to interact, as shown in Figure 6B. In Figure 6B, the video displays the subtitle translations that have passed the check, and displays the translator's signature corresponding to the subtitle translations, such as the translator's username. The viewer can interact with the translator shown in Figure 6B, such as by clicking "Like".

[0055] In the above embodiment, a complete solution is provided for crowdsourced video translation, which can more effectively improve the quality of the translation and the efficiency of translation checking.

[0056] Figure 7 shows a block diagram of a video processing device according to some embodiments of the present disclosure. As shown in Figure 7, the video processing device 7 includes a processor 71 and a display 72.

[0057] The processor 71 is configured to receive subtitle source text added to a video awaiting translation by the video creator, select a translator based on the subtitle source text and the language used by the user on the social network, provide the selected translator with the video awaiting translation, provide the translator with an interaction interface in the video for translating the subtitle source text in the video, and receive the translated subtitle text returned by the translator from the interaction page. For example, the processor 71 is configured to perform steps S1-S7.

[0058] Display 72 is configured to display subtitle translations that have passed the check in the video and to perform, for example, step S9.

[0062] As shown in Figure 8, the video processing unit 8 includes a memory 81 and a processor 82 coupled to this memory 81. It should be noted that the assembly of the video processing unit 8 shown in Figure 8 is illustrative and not restrictive, and the video processing unit 8 may have other assemblies as required by actual applications. The processor 82 can control other assemblies in the video processing unit 8 to perform desired functions.

[0063] In some embodiments, memory 81 is used to store one or more computer-readable instructions. When processor 82 is used to execute computer-readable instructions, the method described in any one of the above embodiments is implemented when the computer-readable instructions are executed by processor 82. For specific implementations of each step of this method and related interpretations, refer to the above embodiments, and repeated explanations are omitted here.

[0064] For example, the processor 82 and the memory 81 can communicate with each other directly or indirectly. For example, the processor 82 and the memory 81 can communicate via a network. The network may include a wireless network, a wired network, and / or any combination of a wireless network and a wired network. Communication between the processor 82 and the memory 81 can also be achieved via a system bus, and this disclosure is not limited thereto.

[0065] For example, the processor 82 may be embodied as various appropriate processors, processing units, etc., such as a central processor (CPU), graphics processing unit (GPU), network processor (NP), etc., or it may be a digital signal processor (DSP), application-specific integrated circuit (ASIC), field-programmable gate array (FPGA) or other programmable logic device, discrete gate or transistor logic device, discrete hardware assembly. The central processing unit (CPU) may be an x86 or ARM architecture, etc. For example, the memory 81 may include any combination of various types of computer-readable storage media, such as volatile memory and / or non-volatile memory. The memory 81 may include, for example, system memory, which stores, for example, an operating system, application programs, a boot loader program, a database and other programs. Various application programs and various data may be stored in the storage media.

[0066] Furthermore, according to some embodiments of this disclosure, when various operations / processes according to this disclosure are implemented by software and / or firmware, the programs constituting this software may be installed from a storage medium or network to a computer system having a dedicated hardware structure, such as the computer system of the electronic device 900 shown in Figure 9, and when various programs are installed on this computer system, various functions, including, for example, the functions described in the preamble, can be executed.

[0067] In Figure 9, the central processing unit (CPU) 901 performs various operations based on programs stored in read-only memory (ROM) 902 or programs loaded from storage unit 908 into random access memory (RAM) 903.
