[0018] The following describes embodiments of the present disclosure in more detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. Although certain embodiments of the present disclosure are shown in the accompanying drawings, it should be understood that the present disclosure can be implemented in various forms and should not be construed as limited to the embodiments described herein. Rather, these embodiments are provided to provide a more thorough and complete understanding of the present disclosure. It should be understood that the drawings and embodiments of the present disclosure are for illustrative purposes only and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present disclosure.

[0019] It should be noted that the titles of any section / subsection provided herein are not limiting. Various embodiments are described throughout this document, and any type of embodiment may be included under any section / subsection. Furthermore, the embodiments described in any section / subsection may be combined in any manner with any other embodiments described in the same section / subsection and / or in different sections / subsections.

[0020] In the description of the embodiments of the present disclosure, the term "including" and similar terms should be understood as open inclusion, that is, "including but not limited to". The term "based on" should be understood as "based at least in part on". The term "one embodiment" or "the embodiment" should be understood as "at least one embodiment". The term "some embodiments" should be understood as "at least some embodiments". Other explicit and implicit definitions may be included below. The terms "first", "second", etc. may refer to different or the same objects. Other explicit and implicit definitions may be included below.

[0021] The embodiments of the present disclosure may involve user data, data acquisition and / or use, etc. These aspects shall comply with the corresponding laws, regulations and relevant provisions. In the embodiments of the present disclosure, all data collection, acquisition, processing, processing, forwarding, use, etc. are carried out on the premise that the user is aware of and confirms them. Accordingly, when implementing the various embodiments of the present disclosure, the types, scope of use, and usage scenarios of the data or information that may be involved should be informed to the user and the user's authorization should be obtained in an appropriate manner in accordance with the relevant laws and regulations. The specific notification and / or authorization method may vary according to the actual situation and application scenario, and the scope of the present disclosure is not limited in this respect.

[0022] If this specification and the solutions in the examples involve the processing of personal information, such processing will be done only with a legitimate basis (such as with the consent of the subject of personal information or as necessary for the performance of a contract) and only within the prescribed or agreed scope. A user's refusal to process personal information other than that required for basic functions will not affect the user's use of basic functions.

[0023] As briefly mentioned above, editing media content involves executing multiple editing operations. Some traditional media editing solutions only support executing these multiple editing operations serially. This requires users to wait for the previous editing task to complete before initiating subsequent editing operations, which greatly affects editing efficiency.

[0024] Embodiments of the present disclosure provide a solution for media editing. According to this solution, in response to a first editing operation triggered on a first media material, a first editing task corresponding to the first editing operation can be created and added to a task list. Furthermore, in response to a second editing operation triggered on a second media material, if the first editing task has not yet been completed, a second editing task corresponding to the second editing operation can be created and added to a task list.

[0025] Furthermore, based on the received preset operation, a task panel may be displayed, where the task panel is used to display task information, where the task information indicates the execution progress of multiple editing tasks in the task list, where the multiple editing tasks include a first editing task and a second editing task.

[0026] In this way, the embodiments of the present disclosure can support users in creating multiple editing tasks for multiple media materials at the same time, and facilitate users to perceive the status of multiple editing tasks, thereby improving the efficiency of media editing.

[0027] Various example implementations of this solution are described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0028] Sample Environment

[0029] FIG1 shows a schematic diagram of an example environment 100 in which embodiments of the present disclosure can be implemented. As shown in FIG1 , the example environment 100 may include an electronic device 110 .

[0030] In this example environment 100, electronic device 110 may run an application 120 that supports interface interaction. Application 120 may be any suitable type of application for interface interaction, examples of which may include, but are not limited to, a media editing application or any other suitable application with media editing capabilities. User 140 may interact with application 120 via electronic device 110 and / or its attached devices.

[0031] In the environment 100 of FIG. 1 , if the application 120 is in an active state, the electronic device 110 may present an interface 150 for supporting interface interaction through the application 120 .

[0032] In some embodiments, the electronic device 110 communicates with the server 130 to enable the provision of services for the application 120. The electronic device 110 can be any type of mobile terminal, fixed terminal or portable terminal, including a mobile phone, a desktop computer, a laptop computer, a notebook computer, a netbook computer, a tablet computer, a media computer, a multimedia tablet, a handheld computer, a portable game terminal, a VR / AR device, a personal communication system (PCS) device, a personal navigation device, a personal digital assistant (PDA), an audio / video player, a digital camera / camcorder, a positioning device, a television receiver, a radio broadcast receiver, an e-book device, a gaming device or any combination thereof, including accessories and peripherals of these devices or any combination thereof. In some embodiments, the electronic device 110 can also support any type of interface for the user (such as a "wearable" circuit, etc.).

[0033] The server 130 may be a standalone physical server, a server cluster or distributed system consisting of multiple physical servers, or a cloud server that provides basic cloud computing services such as cloud services, cloud databases, cloud computing, cloud functions, cloud storage, network services, cloud communications, middleware services, domain name services, security services, content distribution networks, and big data and artificial intelligence platforms. For example, the server 130 may include a computing system / server such as a mainframe, an edge computing node, a computing device in a cloud environment, and the like. The server 130 may provide background services for the application 120 that supports virtual scenes in the electronic device 110.

[0034] A communication connection may be established between the server 130 and the electronic device 110. The communication connection may be established in a wired or wireless manner. The communication connection may include, but is not limited to, a Bluetooth connection, a mobile network connection, a Universal Serial Bus (USB) connection, a Wireless Fidelity (WiFi) connection, etc., and the embodiments of the present disclosure are not limited in this respect. In the embodiments of the present disclosure, the server 130 and the electronic device 110 may implement signaling interaction through the communication connection between the two.

[0035] It should be understood that the structure and function of the various elements in the environment 100 are described for illustrative purposes only and do not imply any limitation on the scope of the present disclosure.

[0036] Some example embodiments of the present disclosure will be described below with continued reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0037] Example Process

[0038] 2 shows a flow chart of an example process 200 for media editing according to some embodiments of the present disclosure. Process 200 may be implemented at electronic device 110. Process 200 is described below with reference to FIG1.

[0039] As shown in FIG. 2 , in block 210 , in response to a first editing operation triggered on a first media material, the electronic device 110 creates a first editing task corresponding to the first editing operation and adds the first editing task to a task list.

[0040] The following describes process 200 with reference to Figures 3A to 3C and Figures 4A to 4D. Figures 3A to 3C illustrate example media editing interfaces 300A to 300C according to some embodiments of the present disclosure, and Figures 4A to 4D illustrate example media editing interfaces 400A to 400D according to some embodiments of the present disclosure. Interfaces 300A to 300C and 400A to 400D may be provided by electronic device 110 shown in Figure 1.

[0041] As shown in Figure 3A, interface 300A may correspond to an editing interface for media content 305. As an example, such media content 305 may include image content or video content. For example, electronic device 110 may receive a user's request to edit a certain media segment in the video content.

[0042] As shown in the figure, the electronic device 110 can provide editing portals corresponding to various types of editing operations in the interface 300A. For example, taking the editing operation of "keying" as an example, the electronic device 110 can receive the user's selection of the portal 310 to receive the user's first editing operation triggered on the media content 305 or the first media material in the media content 305 (for example, the first segment of the video) to execute the editing request of "keying".

[0043] In some embodiments, the electronic device 110 may create a first editing task corresponding to the first editing operation and add the first editing task to the task list. The process of creating and adding editing tasks will be described in detail below.

[0044] In some embodiments, as shown in Figure 3B, after receiving the first editing task being added to the task list, the electronic device 110 can display addition information 315 in the interface 300B to indicate that the first editing task corresponding to the editing request (for example, the "cutout" task) has been added to the task list.

[0045] Additionally, the electronic device 110 may further display a cancel control for canceling the first editing task in association with the added information 315. As an example, after receiving a trigger for the cancel control, the electronic device 110 may delete the first editing task from the task list.

[0046] 3C , after not receiving a trigger for the cancel control within a preset period, the electronic device 110 may display a status element 320 in the interface 300C. The status element 320 may be used to indicate the processing status of a group of editing tasks to be completed.

[0047] 3C as an example, when only the "keying" editing task is currently to be processed, the electronic device 110 can use the status element 320 to display the number of editing tasks in the group and the processing progress of the editing tasks. For example, the electronic device 110 can use a progress bar to represent the overall processing progress of the editing tasks.

[0048] In some embodiments, the electronic device 110 may, for example, utilize a unified display component to display the added information 315 and the status element 320. As an example, upon receiving a new edit request, the electronic device 110 may, for example, stop displaying the status element 320 and correspondingly present the added information 315 corresponding to the new edit request, and after a predetermined period of time, display the updated status element 320.

[0049] 2 , in block 220 , the electronic device 110 creates a second editing task corresponding to the second editing operation and adds the second editing task to the task list in response to a second editing operation triggered on a second media material when the first editing task is not completed.

[0050] In some embodiments, the electronic device 110 may receive multiple editing requests initiated by the user at the same time and may create multiple editing tasks accordingly.

[0051] As an example, when the first editing task is waiting to be executed or is being executed, the electronic device 110 may create a second editing task for the second media material based on a second editing operation triggered by the user for the second media material.

[0052] In some embodiments, the first media material and the second media material may be the same media material, for example, the same video clip. That is, the electronic device 110 may support the user initiating a new editing request for a specific media material and creating and adding a new editing task when an existing editing task for the specific media material is not completed.

[0053] In some embodiments, the first media material and the second media material may be different media materials. That is, the electronic device 110 may support the user to initiate a new editing request for another media material and create and add a new editing task when an existing editing task for a specific media material is not completed.

[0054] In some embodiments, the electronic device 110 may update the status elements displayed in the interface accordingly based on the processing status of the multiple editing tasks added to the task list.

[0055] Continuing to refer to Figure 4A, as an example, when the electronic device 110 currently has multiple pending editing tasks, the electronic device 110 can use the status element 405 to represent the processing status of the multiple pending editing tasks. For example, the number of pending editing tasks is 10, and the processing progress of these 10 editing tasks can be represented by a progress bar.

[0056] Continuing to refer to Figure 2, in box 230, the electronic device 110 displays a task panel based on the received preset operation, where the task panel is used to display task information, where the task information indicates the execution progress of multiple editing tasks in the task list, where the multiple editing tasks include a first editing task and a second editing task.

[0057] In some embodiments, electronic device 110 may receive a user's selection of status element 405 and may accordingly present a task panel 410 as shown in FIG4B . As shown in FIG4B , task panel 410 may present task information of multiple editing tasks to be completed to indicate the execution progress of multiple editing tasks.

[0058] As shown, for example, 10 editing tasks are currently in a pending state, including editing tasks 415-1 to 415-6 (individually or collectively referred to as editing tasks 415). The electronic device 110 can also display other editing tasks based on a sliding operation in the task panel 410.

[0059] 4B , the electronic device 110 may display multiple description items corresponding to multiple editing tasks. For example, a row of information in the task panel 410 may correspond to one description item.

[0060] As shown in FIG4B , taking editing task 415 - 1 as an example, its corresponding description item may include, for example, an identifier corresponding to the editing task 415 - 1 (e.g., “intelligent cutout”). Additionally, the description item may also include the processing progress of the editing task 415 - 1 (e.g., “40%”).

[0061] In some embodiments, the electronic device 110 may update such description items according to a preset period, for example, to present the real-time processing status of the group of editing tasks 415 through the task panel 410 .

[0062] 4B , the electronic device 110 may also provide one or more controls associated with the description item to control the execution of the corresponding editing task. For example, the electronic device 110 may provide a stop execution control associated with each description item to cancel the corresponding editing task.

[0063] 4C , when the editing task 415 - 3 is completed, the electronic device 110 may update the description item corresponding to the editing task 415 - 3 to indicate that the editing task 415 - 3 is completed. For example, the electronic device 110 may display a corresponding icon to indicate that the editing task is completed.

[0064] In some embodiments, the electronic device 110 may stop displaying the description item corresponding to the editing task 415 - 3 in the task panel 410 after the editing task 415 - 3 is completed for a predetermined period of time.

[0065] In some embodiments, the electronic device 110 may also synchronously update the status element 405 to, for example, update the number of pending editing tasks and the processing progress.

[0066] In some embodiments, some editing tasks may fail to execute. For example, as shown in FIG4D , editing task 415 - 3 may fail to execute. Accordingly, electronic device 110 may update the description item corresponding to editing task 415 - 3 to indicate that editing task 415 - 3 failed to execute.

[0067] Additionally, the electronic device 110 may provide a re-execution control for triggering re-execution of the editing task 415 - 3 in association with the description item of the editing task 415 - 3 .

[0068] In some embodiments, when the pending editing tasks include an editing task that failed to execute, the electronic device 110 may also update the status element 405. As an example, the electronic device 110 may display an indicator (e.g., a small red dot above the number) to indicate that at least one editing task failed to execute.

[0069] Based on the process described above, embodiments of the present disclosure can indicate the execution status of the currently pending editing task through the status element and / or the task panel 410 , thereby helping to improve media editing efficiency.

[0070] In some embodiments, the electronic device 110 may determine the display order of the multiple description items corresponding to the multiple editing tasks 415 in the task panel 410 .

[0071] In some embodiments, the electronic device 110 may determine the display order of corresponding description items according to the execution status of the plurality of editing tasks 415. Such execution status may include, for example, to be executed, in progress, or failed to execute.

[0072] As an example, the description item corresponding to the editing task that failed to execute has a higher display priority. As another example, the description item corresponding to the task being executed and the editing task to be executed may have a lower display priority.

[0073] In some embodiments, when no editing tasks are executed, the electronic device 110 may further sort the multiple description items based on the creation time of each editing task. For example, description items corresponding to editing tasks with earlier creation times may have higher display priorities.

[0074] Alternatively, the electronic device 110 may further sort the multiple description items based on the execution order of the editing tasks, for example, description items corresponding to editing tasks with a higher execution order may have a higher display priority.

[0075] Based on this approach, the embodiments of the present disclosure can help users obtain the status of editing tasks more efficiently.

[0076] In some embodiments, the size information of the task panel 410 can be adaptively adjusted according to the number of editing tasks to be processed. As an example, when the task panel 410 is triggered to be displayed, the electronic device 110 can determine the size of the task panel, for example, the display height, according to the number of editing tasks currently to be processed.

[0077] Furthermore, when the task panel 410 is kept displayed, the electronic device 110 may maintain the display size of the task panel. For example, using FIG. 4C as an example, after the electronic device 110 stops displaying the description item corresponding to the editing task 415-3, the electronic device 110 will not adjust the height of the task panel 410.

[0078] As mentioned above, the media content may include, for example, video content. Accordingly, the editing task mentioned above may correspond to, for example, a specific media segment in the video content.

[0079] In some embodiments, electronic device 110 may support concurrent creation of multiple editing tasks, independent of whether previous editing tasks have been completed. For example, electronic device 110 may support a user initiating different types of edit requests for the same media segment, thereby creating different editing tasks for the same media segment. As another example, electronic device 110 may also support a user initiating multiple edit requests for different media segments.

[0080] In this way, the embodiments of the present disclosure can support users to initiate editing requests asynchronously without having to pay attention to whether the previous editing request has been completed, thereby improving the efficiency of media editing.

[0081] The above embodiment describes the example process of the present disclosure using status element 320 and status element 405 as examples. In some embodiments, electronic device 110 may also display a task panel based on a user's request to view the task panel, so as to display the status elements of one or more editing tasks to be processed in the task panel. For example, electronic device 110 may not directly display status element 320 and / or status element 405 in the editing interface, but may display the task panel based on a preset operation of the user and use the task panel to display the status elements.

[0082] The specific process of creating and executing an editing task will be further described below with reference to Figure 5. Figure 5 shows a schematic diagram of a task management system 500 according to some embodiments of the present disclosure.

[0083] 5 , the task management system 500 may provide multiple editing functions, such as functions 505 - 1 to 505 -N (individually or collectively referred to as functions 505 ). When a user initiates an editing request, the task management system 500 may determine that the corresponding function 505 is triggered.

[0084] In some embodiments, the task management system 500 can create a task instance of the editing task based on the received editing request.

[0085] Traditionally, the electronic device 110 needs to call an underlying algorithm corresponding to a specific function to perform the corresponding editing operation. However, such an approach will result in each editing operation needing to be performed serially.

[0086] As shown in FIG5 , the task management system 500 may include an algorithm service 510 that provides a unified service interface for different functions 505. Specifically, the algorithm service 510 may, for example, encapsulate the underlying algorithms corresponding to the different functions 505. When creating a corresponding task instance, the algorithm service 510 may utilize the algorithm interface corresponding to the edit request to create a task instance for managing the execution of the corresponding edit task. The task instance may, for example, be recycled upon completion of the corresponding edit task.

[0087] Furthermore, the task management system 500 may add the created task instance to a unified task list (also referred to as a task queue in some scenarios) at 515. Traditionally, different task lists need to be created for different functions 505. By creating task instances, the task management system 500 may provide a unified task list to support adding different types of editing tasks and / or editing tasks for different media materials to the unified task list for unified management.

[0088] By utilizing a task list for task management, embodiments of the present disclosure can reduce resource overhead of switching between threads, thereby improving the efficiency of task management.

[0089] In some embodiments, the multiple editing tasks in the task list can be divided into multiple groups of editing tasks based on the media materials being processed, for example, a first group of editing tasks for a first media material and a second group of editing tasks for a second media material. In some embodiments, the multiple groups of editing tasks for multiple media materials can be executed in parallel.

[0090] In some embodiments, the task management system 500 may also determine the execution order of the editing tasks in the task list.

[0091] Specifically, the task management system 500 may determine the priority of the first editing task based on the task type of the editing task in the task list. Further, the task management system 500 may determine the execution order of the editing task in the task list based at least on the priority.

[0092] In some embodiments, the types of editing tasks may include, for example, a first type, wherein the product of the first type of editing task is indicative information about an existing media file. For example, editing tasks such as chroma keying, anti-shake, and subject lock do not directly generate video content, but generate indicative information about the video content, which corresponds to the first type. Additionally, the types of editing tasks may also include a second type, wherein the product of the second type of editing task is a new media file. For example, the product of editing tasks such as reverse playback, gameplay, frame interpolation, noise elimination, and destrobing is a new video file, which corresponds to the second type. In some embodiments, the priority of the second type may, for example, be higher than that of the first type.

[0093] In some embodiments, the task management system 500 may further support the user to configure various types of priorities, and may determine the priority corresponding to the editing task based on such configuration information.

[0094] Furthermore, the task management system 500 can determine the execution order of the editing tasks based on a comparison of the priorities of the editing tasks in the task list. Taking the first editing task being added to the task list as an example, the task management system 500 can compare the priority of the first editing task with the priorities of other existing editing tasks to determine the execution order of the first editing task.

[0095] In one example, if the priority of the existing editing task is higher than the priority of the first editing task, the task management system 500 may execute the editing tasks normally according to the order in which they were added.

[0096] In another example, if the priority of the existing editing task is lower than that of the first editing task, the task management system 500 may prioritize executing the first editing task, which may cause the existing editing task to be suspended or need to be re-executed.

[0097] In yet another example, if the priority of the existing editing task is the same as the priority of the first editing task, the task management system 500 may determine the execution order based on the coupling relationship between the editing tasks.

[0098] In some embodiments, the task management system 500 may determine a coupling relationship between the first editing task and at least one other editing task in the task list. Further, the task management system 500 may determine an execution order of the first editing task in the task list based on the priority and coupling relationship of the first editing task.

[0099] In some embodiments, the coupling relationship between editing tasks may include a first relationship, indicating that the first editing task triggers the cancellation of at least one other editing task. Alternatively or additionally, the coupling relationship may further include a second relationship, indicating that the first editing task triggers the re-execution of at least one other editing task. Alternatively or additionally, the coupling relationship may further include a third relationship, indicating that the first editing task can be executed synchronously with at least one other editing task.

[0100] In some embodiments, the coupling relationship between editing tasks can be determined based on configuration information, for example. In this way, embodiments of the present disclosure can support the configuration of coupling relationships between different task types, thereby enabling more flexible execution of media editing.

[0101] As a specific example, the priority of the "UHD Image Quality" task can be the same as the priority of the "Noise Reduction" task, and both are higher than the priority of the "Anti-Shake" task. From a coupling perspective, the "UHD Image Quality" task and the "Noise Reduction" task can be executed concurrently, causing the "Anti-Shake" task to need to be re-executed.

[0102] In one example, the electronic device 110 may receive the "anti-shake" task, "noise removal" task, and "ultra-clear image quality" task added by the user to the segment S. Accordingly, the electronic device 110 may control the editing tasks to be executed accordingly according to the following logic.

[0103] Specifically, after the "noise elimination" task is triggered, since the priority of the "noise elimination" task is higher than the "anti-shake" task, the electronic device 110 will execute the "noise elimination" task, suspend the "anti-shake task", and re-run the "anti-shake" task after the "noise elimination" task is completed.

[0104] Furthermore, after the "ultra-clear image quality" task is triggered, if the "noise elimination" task is being executed, since the "noise elimination" task and the "ultra-clear image quality" task have an overlapping coupling relationship, the electronic device 110 can execute the "noise elimination" task normally.

[0105] After the "noise reduction" task is completed, the electronic device 110 can execute the "ultra-clear image quality" task based on the "noise reduction" video, thereby superimposing the effect. Furthermore, based on the coupling relationship, the electronic device 110 will re-run the "anti-shake" task after completing the "ultra-clear image quality" task.

[0106] Based on the above process, the embodiment of the present disclosure allows users to freely submit multiple editing requests without having to pay attention to the logical relationship between such editing requests, thereby improving the efficiency of media editing.
