Solution Overview

Problem

Current video editing and playing methods often obscure the main content of a video with uniformly displayed video texts, such as subtitles and bullet screens, reducing user experience.

Innovation Solution

A method and apparatus that allow video text to be dynamically moved from a first video picture area to a second area upon user input, enabling adjustable display positions to prevent obstruction of the main content during video editing and playback.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Ease of operation

If video text is displayed at specified positions in a unified manner, then the display is simple and consistent, but the main content may be obscured reducing user experience

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvevideo text display consistencyVSAvoidcontent obscuration
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSObject-affected harmful factors

Solution Approach 1:

The patent implements dynamic positioning of video text by allowing the text to automatically adjust its display location based on the position of main content in the video. The text can switch between a first display area and a second display area, ensuring it remains visible without obscuring important video content. This dynamic adjustment resolves the contradiction between maintaining display consistency and avoiding content obscuration.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

2Stability of the object's composition

If video text is displayed at fixed positions, then the display layout is stable, but it reduces adaptability to different video content

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedisplay layout stabilityVSAvoidcontent adaptability
Core Design Contradiction:
Stability of the object's compositionVSAdaptability or versatility

Solution Approach 1:

The system maintains layout stability by providing a default first display area for video text while introducing a second display area as an alternative. The text dynamically switches between these areas based on content analysis, achieving both stability (through predefined areas) and adaptability (through conditional switching).

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

Solution Approach 2:

The patent applies different display qualities to different regions by designating specific first and second display areas within the video frame. Each area is optimized for text visibility while considering the local content characteristics, allowing the text to maintain high quality display regardless of its position.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #3Local quality

AI summary

The disclosure relates to a video editing and playing method, apparatus, device and medium. The video editing method comprises the steps of displaying a target video; displaying a target video text in a first video picture area of the target video; and when a moving operation on the target video text is detected, moving the target video text from the first video picture area to a second video picture area of the target video for displaying in the case where the moving operation is determined to be used for moving the target video text to the second video picture area.
