Description

In-vehicle music playback control methods, devices, vehicles, media and programs

[0001] This application claims priority to Chinese Patent Application No. 202411568571.5, filed on November 5, 2024, entitled “In-vehicle Music Playback Control Method, Device, Vehicle, Medium and Program”, the entire contents of which are incorporated herein by reference. Technical Field

[0002] This application relates to the field of vehicle technology, and in particular to a method, device, vehicle, medium and program for controlling in-vehicle music playback. Background Technology

[0003] With the widespread adoption of smart devices and the development of vehicle-to-everything (V2X) technology, more and more users are inclined to connect their smartphones to in-vehicle entertainment systems (V2X) via Bluetooth to enjoy a more convenient multimedia experience. However, existing Bluetooth connectivity technology still has some shortcomings in the in-vehicle environment, especially in audio management.

[0004] In related technologies, since Bluetooth connections mostly support automatic connection, the current shortcomings of Bluetooth functionality in the cockpit mainly lie in the audio aspect. After a smart terminal device connects to the car's Bluetooth system, its audio can be output through the car's Bluetooth audio output. Bluetooth calls, ringtones, message notifications, Bluetooth music, and other sounds can all be output through the car's system. In other words, once the user activates the vehicle's Bluetooth automatic connection, all kinds of sounds from the smart terminal will be output through the car's system, resulting in a poor user experience because it cannot be controlled according to the user's needs. Furthermore, the car's Bluetooth music only has an on / off option and lacks a multi-mode ecosystem that users can control and select. The Bluetooth music playback mode is limited, and the audio file parsing is unreliable and has a lag. Summary of the Invention

[0005] This application provides a method, device, vehicle, medium, and program for controlling in-vehicle music playback, in order to solve the problems in related technologies such as the single Bluetooth music playback mode, unreliable audio file parsing, lag, and poor user experience due to the inability to control the music playback according to user needs.

[0008] Optionally, controlling the vehicle system to perform the target operation according to the Bluetooth setting mode configuration item further includes: if the Bluetooth setting mode configuration item is a vehicle playback configuration item, then identifying the audio focus position of the vehicle system; if the current audio focus position is not in Bluetooth music, then sending a pause command to the mobile phone Bluetooth protocol stack to stop the audio synchronization on the mobile phone until the current audio focus position is in Bluetooth music, and then synchronizing the audio sound channel of the client to the vehicle system.

[0009] Optionally, controlling the vehicle system to perform the target operation according to the Bluetooth setting mode configuration item further includes: if the Bluetooth setting mode configuration item is a privacy playback configuration item, sending a mute command to the mobile phone Bluetooth protocol stack to control the client to mute, and synchronizing the client's audio sound channel to the vehicle system.

[0010] Optionally, before monitoring the Bluetooth playback status of the client, the process includes: identifying the Bluetooth connection status between the client and the vehicle; if the Bluetooth is in a connected state, then monitoring the Bluetooth playback status of the client.

[0011] Optionally, before monitoring the Bluetooth playback status of the client, the method further includes: identifying the user's Bluetooth setting mode configuration item requirements; and setting the Bluetooth setting mode configuration item according to the Bluetooth setting mode configuration item requirements.

[0026] The embodiments of this application are described in detail below. Examples of these embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals denote the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions throughout. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and intended to explain this application, and should not be construed as limiting this application.

[0027] The following description, with reference to the accompanying drawings, outlines an in-vehicle music playback control method, apparatus, vehicle, medium, and program according to embodiments of this application. Addressing the issues raised in the background section regarding the limited Bluetooth music playback modes, unreliable and lagging audio file parsing, and poor user experience due to the inability to customize control based on user needs, this application provides an in-vehicle music playback control method. In this method, the Bluetooth playback status of the client is monitored; if the Bluetooth playback status is active, the Bluetooth setting mode configuration item is read; and the vehicle system is controlled to perform the target operation based on the Bluetooth setting mode configuration item. Since the Bluetooth setting mode configuration item offers multiple selectable modes, it allows for user-defined control, improving the user experience and avoiding the unreliability and lag of automatic audio file parsing. This solves the problems of limited Bluetooth music playback modes, unreliable and lagging audio file parsing, and poor user experience due to the inability to customize control based on user needs in related technologies.

[0028] Specifically, Figure 1 is a flowchart illustrating a vehicle music playback control method provided in an embodiment of this application.

[0029] As shown in Figure 1, the in-vehicle music playback control method includes the following steps:

[0030] In step S101, the Bluetooth playback status of the client is monitored.

[0031] It is understood that the embodiments of this application can monitor the Bluetooth playback status of the client so as to perform corresponding operations according to the Bluetooth playback status.

[0032] It should be noted that the Bluetooth playback status of the monitoring client is mainly monitored by registering a broadcast receiver to listen for system broadcasts related to Bluetooth audio, such as changes in audio playback status and changes in Bluetooth connection status.

[0033] In this embodiment of the application, before monitoring the Bluetooth playback status of the client, the process includes: identifying the Bluetooth connection status between the client and the vehicle; if the Bluetooth is connected, then monitoring the Bluetooth playback status of the client.

[0034] It is understood that the embodiments of this application can identify the Bluetooth connection status between the client and the vehicle; if Bluetooth is connected, the Bluetooth playback status of the client is monitored so as to perform corresponding operations according to the Bluetooth playback status.

[0035] In this embodiment of the application, before monitoring the Bluetooth playback status of the client, the method further includes: identifying the user's Bluetooth setting mode configuration item requirements; and setting the Bluetooth setting mode configuration item according to the Bluetooth setting mode configuration item requirements.

[0036] It is understood that the embodiments of this application can identify the user's Bluetooth setting mode configuration item requirements; set the Bluetooth setting mode configuration item according to the Bluetooth setting mode configuration item requirements, and there are multiple modes to choose from for the Bluetooth setting mode configuration item, which can be controlled by the user according to their needs, thereby improving the user experience.

[0037] In step S102, if the Bluetooth playback status is in playback mode, the Bluetooth setting mode configuration item is read.

[0038] It is understood that, in the embodiments of this application, if the Bluetooth playback state is in playback state, the Bluetooth setting mode configuration item can be read so that the vehicle system can be controlled to perform the target operation according to the Bluetooth setting mode configuration item.

[0039] In step S103, the vehicle system is controlled to perform the target operation according to the Bluetooth setting mode configuration item.

[0040] It is understood that the embodiments of this application can control the vehicle system to perform target operations according to the Bluetooth setting mode configuration items, and can be controlled by the user according to their needs, thereby improving the user experience and avoiding the unreliability and lag of automatic parsing of audio files.

[0041] It should be noted that a control switch for selecting Bluetooth music playback mode has been added to the settings. The modes are divided into automatic playback mode, car playback mode, and privacy playback mode. You can control the corresponding playback mode according to your actual needs.

[0042] In this embodiment of the application, the vehicle system is controlled to perform the target operation according to the Bluetooth setting mode configuration item, including: if the Bluetooth setting mode configuration item is the autoplay configuration item, then the vehicle system's Bluetooth audio focus is requested, and the audio sound channel of the client is automatically synchronized to the vehicle system after the request is successful.

[0043] It is understood that in this embodiment of the application, if the Bluetooth setting mode configuration item is set to the autoplay configuration item, then the Bluetooth audio focus of the vehicle's infotainment system can be applied for, and after the application is successful, the audio sound channel of the client will be automatically synchronized to the vehicle's infotainment system, thereby realizing automatic playback of Bluetooth music after successful Bluetooth connection and improving the user experience.

[0044] Specifically, as shown in Figure 2, if the [Auto Play] mode is selected, the following will occur:

[0045] 1) With the phone connected to the car's Bluetooth system, the "Auto Play" mode was enabled from the car's Bluetooth settings page (the car manufacturer's custom-developed "Mode Selection" UI).

[0046] 2) When playing audio on the mobile phone, the car manufacturer's self-developed media center Bluetooth music background service monitors the Bluetooth audio playback status. At this time, the background service determines the monitored Bluetooth playback status. If it is in playback mode, it needs to read the Bluetooth setting mode configuration item. If it is the "Auto Play" configuration item, the Bluetooth service in the media center needs to "Request the system's Bluetooth audio focus". If the request is successful, the system will automatically synchronize the mobile phone's audio channel to the car's system. This method can achieve the "Auto Play" mode.

[0047] In this embodiment of the application, controlling the vehicle system to perform the target operation according to the Bluetooth setting mode configuration item further includes: if the Bluetooth setting mode configuration item is the vehicle playback configuration item, then identifying the audio focus position of the vehicle system; if the current audio focus position is not in Bluetooth music, then sending a pause command to the mobile phone Bluetooth protocol stack to stop the audio synchronization on the mobile phone until the current audio focus position is in Bluetooth music, and then synchronizing the audio sound channel of the client to the vehicle system.

[0048] It is understood that in this embodiment of the application, if the Bluetooth setting mode configuration item is the vehicle playback configuration item, the audio focus position of the vehicle's head unit is identified; if the current audio focus position is not in Bluetooth music, a pause command is sent to the mobile phone's Bluetooth protocol stack to stop the audio synchronization on the mobile phone until the current audio focus position is in Bluetooth music, and then the audio sound channel of the client is synchronized to the head unit to improve the user experience.

[0049] Specifically, as shown in Figure 3, if it is the "Playback on Vehicle" mode, then it will be as follows:

[0050] 1) With the phone connected to the car's infotainment system via Bluetooth, the "Car Playback" mode was enabled from the car's Bluetooth settings page (the car manufacturer's custom-developed "Mode Selection" UI).

[0051] 2) When playing audio on the mobile device, the car manufacturer's self-developed media center Bluetooth music backend service monitors the Bluetooth audio playback status. At this point, the backend service checks the detected Bluetooth playback status. If it's playing, it needs to read the Bluetooth settings configuration item. If it's set to "Play on Vehicle," the Bluetooth backend service needs to determine if the current "Audio Focus" is on the Bluetooth music player. If the focus is not on the Bluetooth music player, the Bluetooth service in the media center:

[0052] 2.1) Do not actively request Bluetooth audio focus from the system;

[0053] 2.2) The mobile phone's Bluetooth protocol stack sends a pause command to stop and pause audio synchronization on the mobile phone.

[0054] 2.3) Because the audio is currently being played on a mobile device in the car playback mode, it is paused.

[0055] 3) The Bluetooth service in the media center can be used to achieve the "car playback" mode.

[0056] 4) If the Bluetooth music interface of the media center is opened on the car's infotainment system or the play button is pressed on this interface, that is, the audio focus is on the Bluetooth music, the car's infotainment system will synchronize the audio information from the mobile phone and output the sound.

[0057] In this embodiment of the application, controlling the vehicle system to perform the target operation according to the Bluetooth setting mode configuration item further includes: if the Bluetooth setting mode configuration item is a privacy playback configuration item, sending a mute command to the mobile phone Bluetooth protocol stack to control the client to mute, and synchronizing the client's audio sound channel to the vehicle system.

[0058] It is understood that, in the embodiments of this application, if the Bluetooth setting mode configuration item is set to the privacy playback configuration item, a mute command is sent to the mobile phone Bluetooth protocol stack to control the client to mute, and the client's audio sound channel is synchronized to the vehicle system to improve the user experience.

[0059] Specifically, as shown in Figure 4, if the [Privacy Playback] mode is selected, the following will occur:

[0060] 1) With the phone connected to the car's Bluetooth system, the "Privacy Playback" mode was enabled from the car's Bluetooth settings page (the car manufacturer's custom-developed "Mode Selection" UI).

[0061] 2) When playing audio on the mobile device, the car manufacturer's self-developed media center Bluetooth music background service monitors the Bluetooth audio playback status. At this point, the background service checks the detected Bluetooth playback status. If it's in playback mode, it needs to read the Bluetooth settings mode configuration item. If it's the "Privacy Playback" configuration item, the Bluetooth service in the media center will then...

[0062] 2.1) The mobile phone's Bluetooth protocol stack sends a "Mute" command, and the audio on the mobile phone is synchronized and muted;

[0063] 2.2) Because the audio is currently being played on a mobile device in private playback mode, it is now muted.

[0064] 3) The Bluetooth service in the media center can achieve the "privacy playback" mode. In this mode, the music sound on the car's system is output normally, while the audio on the mobile phone is muted, which can effectively protect the privacy of mobile phone users.

[0065] In summary, this application provides users with a multi-mode selection option for Bluetooth music that allows for independent control, giving users more autonomy. Regarding multi-mode selection, it offers a transparent and publicly available logic implementation scheme for the dynamic configuration of audio focus in the Bluetooth protocol during interaction between Bluetooth music and in-vehicle media services. This provides users with greater autonomy and control, avoiding the unreliability and lag of automatic audio file parsing. The implementation scheme dynamically matches the multi-mode ecosystem selection logic of Bluetooth music.

[0066] According to the in-vehicle music playback control method proposed in this application, the Bluetooth playback status of the client is monitored; if the Bluetooth playback status is in playback state, the Bluetooth setting mode configuration item is read; the vehicle system is controlled to perform the target operation according to the Bluetooth setting mode configuration item. The Bluetooth setting mode configuration item has multiple modes to choose from, which can be controlled according to user needs, improving the user experience and avoiding the unreliability and lag of automatic parsing of audio files.

[0067] Next, the in-vehicle music playback control device according to the embodiments of this application is described with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0069] As shown in Figure 5, the in-vehicle music playback control device 10 includes: a monitoring module 100, a reading module 200, and a control module 300.

[0070] The monitoring module 100 is used to monitor the Bluetooth playback status of the client; the reading module 200 is used to read the Bluetooth setting mode configuration item if the Bluetooth playback status is playback; and the control module 300 is used to control the vehicle system to perform the target operation according to the Bluetooth setting mode configuration item.
