Solution Overview

Problem

Conventional audiovisual content sharing techniques are inefficient for sharing specific portions of long-duration content, making it difficult for recipients to quickly obtain desired information.

Innovation Solution

A method and apparatus for creating and sharing fragmented audiovisual content by selecting text fragments from a target audiovisual content, allowing for the creation of continuous portions in the fragmented content and presenting a sharing portal for distribution.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Loss of information

If the entire long-duration audiovisual content is shared, then the recipient can access all information, but the time required to obtain desired information increases significantly

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvecompleteness of informationVSAvoidtime to obtain desired information
Core Design Contradiction:
Loss of informationVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The patent divides the long-duration audiovisual content into multiple discrete fragments or segments. Users can select and share only the specific fragments containing desired information rather than the entire content. This segmentation allows recipients to quickly obtain relevant information without watching or listening to unnecessary portions, thus reducing time loss while maintaining information completeness for the selected segments.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The patent extracts specific portions or fragments from the complete audiovisual content based on user selection criteria. By taking out only the relevant segments that contain desired information and presenting them as shareable units, the system enables recipients to access specific information quickly without processing the entire long-duration content, effectively resolving the contradiction between information completeness and time efficiency.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #2Taking out (Extraction)

2Productivity

If specific portions are extracted and shared, then the sharing efficiency improves, but the complexity of managing fragmented content increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvesharing efficiencyVSAvoidcontent management complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent creates simplified copies or representations of the audiovisual content in fragment form. Each fragment is a self-contained unit that can be easily selected, shared, and managed. This copying approach allows the system to handle complex content management by breaking it down into simpler, standardized fragment units that are easier to organize and distribute, thereby improving sharing efficiency without proportionally increasing management complexity.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #26Copying

Solution Approach 2:

The patent changes the parameter of content granularity from whole-content level to fragment-level. By transforming the content into discrete, selectable fragments with defined parameters (such as duration, topic, or time range), the system enables more efficient sharing operations while managing complexity through standardized fragment parameters rather than handling arbitrary content portions.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

AI summary

According to embodiments of the disclosure, a method, an apparatus, a device and storage medium for sharing audiovisual content are provided. The method includes receiving a selection for a plurality of text fragments corresponding to a plurality of portions in target audiovisual content, the plurality of portions at least comprising a first portion and a second portion that are discontinuous in the target audiovisual content; causing fragmented audiovisual content to be created based at least on the plurality of portions in the target audiovisual content, wherein the first portion and the second portion are continuous in the fragmented audiovisual content; and presenting a sharing portal for sharing the fragmented audiovisual content. In this way, embodiments of the disclosure enable the merge sharing for discontinuous fragments in original audiovisual content (e.g., audio content or video content).
