Solution Overview

Problem

Current video applications do not allow for continuous playback of multiple video drafts, requiring users to exit and re-enter the playing page to preview other drafts, making it inconvenient for users to quickly screen and switch between them.

Innovation Solution

A resource playing method and apparatus that enables fast switching between draft resources on the same playing page by using preset operations, such as swiping, to play multiple draft resources without leaving the page, utilizing resource files, code files, and configuration files stored by a video application.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Ease of operation

If users click on the cover of a video draft to enter the playing page, then the video draft can be played, but users cannot continuously preview other drafts without leaving the current playing page

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveconvenience of previewing multiple draftsVSAvoidtime required to switch between drafts
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The patent merges the function of playing multiple different video drafts into a single playing page. By loading multiple draft resources (first draft resource and second draft resource) into the same playing page and enabling switching between them through preset operations, the system allows continuous preview without requiring users to leave and re-enter the playing page, thus resolving the contradiction between ease of operation and time loss.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #5Merging (Combining)

2Productivity

If users leave the current playing page to preview other drafts, then other drafts can be played, but the operation path becomes complex and efficiency decreases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveefficiency of screening draft resourcesVSAvoidcomplexity of operation path
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The playing page is designed with multi-functionality to serve multiple purposes: it can play the first draft resource, switch to and play the second draft resource, and provide preset operations for switching between drafts. This universal design allows the same playing page to handle multiple draft previews without requiring users to navigate to different pages, thereby improving productivity while maintaining simple operation paths.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #6Universality (Multi-functionality)

AI summary

The disclosure provides a resource playing method, an apparatus, an electronic device, and a storage medium. The method includes: in response to a triggering for a first draft resource identification, displaying a first draft resource on a playing interface; and switching the first draft resource to a second draft resource on the playing interface in response to a first preset triggering on the playing interface. The first draft resource and the second draft resource are acquired based on resource files, code files, and configuration files which are stored.
