Layered Display Playback for Simultaneous Video Recommendations
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Display apparatuses with a single display layer can only play one path of video content at a time, requiring users to exit the current content to switch to another, which negatively impacts user experience.
Innovation Solution
Implement a display apparatus with a controller that manages a display layer and a render layer to simultaneously present a target video resource on the display layer and one or more recommended resources on the render layer, allowing for concurrent playback without audio output for the recommended resources.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If a single display layer is used to present video content, then the device structure remains simple, but the user can only watch one video path at a time and must exit the current content to switch to another
Solution Approach 1:
The display function is segmented into two independent layers: a display layer for presenting the primary video content with audio output, and a render layer for presenting recommended video content without audio. This segmentation allows both layers to operate independently and simultaneously, enabling multi-path video playback while maintaining clear functional separation and manageable system complexity.
2Adaptability or versatility
If the display apparatus supports multiple video paths simultaneously, then user viewing experience is improved, but the control system becomes more complex
Solution Approach 1:
The solution adds a dimensional layer by introducing the render layer as a separate dimension from the display layer. Instead of complicating the single display layer to handle multiple video paths, the invention stacks another display dimension on top, allowing concurrent video playback through layered presentation without proportionally increasing controller complexity.
3Ease of operation
If a single display layer is used, then the audio output control is simple, but the user cannot preview additional content without interrupting the primary video
Solution Approach 1:
The render layer performs preliminary action by pre-displaying recommended video content (such as next episode or related videos) alongside the primary video playback. This allows users to preview additional content without interrupting the current video, eliminating the need to exit or pause the primary playback to view recommendations, thus saving time and improving operational convenience.
