Dynamic Video Display Region for Session Pages
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing video display methods on session pages are limited to a fixed display style, failing to meet user requirements for varied video message presentation.
Innovation Solution
A video display method and apparatus that allows users to switch from a first display style to a second display style upon a trigger operation, expanding the message display region to play video messages in a format suitable for viewing, while maintaining efficient use of session page space.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If video messages are displayed in a fixed display style on a session page, then the session page layout is simple and easy to implement, but the display method is relatively single and cannot satisfy user requirements for varied video message presentation
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements dynamic display styles that can switch between different presentation modes (e.g., thumbnail mode, playing mode, full-screen mode). The message display region transitions from a static fixed layout to a dynamic structure that adapts its display style based on user interactions such as triggering operations, thereby resolving the contradiction between display variety and implementation simplicity.
Solution Approach 2:
The message display region is designed to serve multiple functions through different display styles: it can display video thumbnails, play videos, show video details, and switch between these modes. This multi-functional design allows a single component to provide diverse video message presentation methods without requiring separate dedicated components for each display style.
2Ease of operation
If the message display region is expanded to play video messages, then video viewing experience is improved, but the space occupation on the session page increases
Solution Approach 1:
The message display region employs dynamic size adjustment, transitioning from a compact thumbnail size to an expanded playing size only when needed. Users can trigger the expansion to watch videos, and the region can be collapsed back when video playback ends or when users navigate away, thus providing good video viewing experience while minimizing space occupation during non-video states.
Solution Approach 2:
The display region is segmented into different functional states: a compact thumbnail state for normal scrolling and an expanded playing state for video viewing. This segmentation allows the interface to optimize space usage by maintaining a small footprint during browsing while temporarily expanding only when video playback is actively required.
3Adaptability or versatility
If multiple display styles are implemented for video messages, then user requirements for varied presentation are met, but the system complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
A single message display region component is designed to handle multiple display styles (thumbnail, playing, full-screen) through internal state management and style switching mechanisms. This universal component approach avoids the need for separate dedicated components for each display style, thereby providing diverse presentation options while controlling system complexity through code reuse and unified architecture.

AI summary
Provided are a video display method and apparatus, an electronic device, and a storage medium. The video display method includes receiving a first trigger operation acting on a first message display region on a session page, where the first message display region is displayed in a first display style, and video description information of a first target video is displayed in the first message display region; and in response to the first trigger operation, switching the first message display region from the first display style to a second display style and playing the first target video in the switched first message display region.
