Solution Overview

Problem

Existing video processing technologies fail to enrich video-related functions to meet diverse user requirements, leading to suboptimal user experience.

Innovation Solution

A method and apparatus for video processing that allows jumping to a second playback page upon a trigger operation, presenting a target recommended video upon a direction slide operation, and enabling interaction controls to manage recommended video streams based on sliding information and dimensions.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Adaptability or versatility

If traditional video playback interface is used, then interface simplicity is maintained, but video-related functions are not enriched and user requirements are not met

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvevideo-related functionsVSAvoidinterface complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The video playback interface is segmented into multiple functional layers: the first playback page for basic playback, the second playback page for detailed topic content, and the third playback page for recommended videos. Each layer handles specific functions, allowing the system to provide rich video-related functions while keeping each individual interface simple and focused.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The patent introduces a new dimension of interaction by adding the sliding operation dimension. Users can slide in specific directions to navigate between different video content and recommended videos, transforming the traditional click-based single-dimension interaction into a multi-dimensional interaction model that enriches video functions without significantly increasing interface complexity.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #17Another dimension (Dimensionality change)

2Adaptability or versatility

If multiple video pages and functions are added, then user requirements are met, but operation complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvevideo interaction functionsVSAvoidoperation simplicity
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

The patent implements dynamic navigation where the same sliding gesture can trigger different actions based on the current context and direction. Sliding up on the second playback page shows recommended videos, while sliding in other directions navigates to different content. This dynamic response system allows multiple interaction functions to be accessed through a single, intuitive gesture type, maintaining ease of operation while increasing functionality.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

Solution Approach 2:

The sliding gesture serves multiple functions across different pages and contexts: navigating between videos, accessing recommended content, and controlling playback. This universal gesture control mechanism allows the system to provide diverse video interaction functions while maintaining simple, consistent operation methods.

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

3Productivity

If recommended video stream is integrated into playback page, then video browsing efficiency is improved, but page information density increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvevideo browsing efficiencyVSAvoidpage information density
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSArea of stationary object

Solution Approach 1:

The recommended video stream is segmented and displayed in a dedicated third playback page that is accessed through sliding gestures from the second playback page. This segmentation allows the main playback page to remain focused on primary video content while providing easy access to recommended videos through a separate, dedicated interface, thus improving browsing efficiency without overcrowding the main page.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The patent introduces an intermediary mechanism where the sliding gesture acts as a mediator between the main playback page and the recommended video stream. Instead of directly integrating recommended videos into the main page layout, the sliding gesture provides a smooth transition to a dedicated recommended video interface, maintaining information organization while improving access efficiency.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

AI summary

The disclosure provides a method, an apparatus, a device, and a storage medium for video processing. The method includes: firstly, in response to a preset trigger operation on a first playback page of a first video, obtaining a related recommended video stream of the first video, and jumping from the first playback page to a second playback page of the first video; then, in response to a preset first direction slide operation on the second playback page, pulling up from bottom of the second playback page and presenting a first target recommended video in the related recommended video stream. It can be seen that the embodiments of the present disclosure can jump from the first playback page of the first video to the second playback page, and a presentation of a recommended video in the recommended video stream is triggered on the second playback page based on the preset first direction slide operation, which is convenient for a user to quickly and efficiently browse a relevant recommended video on a playback page of a first video, thereby enriching video-based interaction functions, and improving the video playback experience of a user.
