Magic Moment Photo Browsing in Video Playback Interface
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Current camera technologies for intelligent terminals cannot effectively capture and display highlight instant photos during video recording, failing to meet user requirements for enhanced photography and video recording experiences.
Innovation Solution
A method for browsing multimedia content that includes displaying a thumbnail of a video in a gallery application, allowing users to select and view 'magic moment' photos associated with the video, with features like automatic photo capture during video recording, intuitive thumbnail navigation, and seamless playback control, improving user experience by simplifying the process of accessing and viewing highlight moments.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If video playback interface displays only the video player, then the interface is simple, but the user cannot easily access magic moment photos associated with the video
Solution Approach 1:
The patent combines the video playback function and the magic moment photo gallery into a single integrated interface. The thumbnail list region displays both video thumbnails and magic moment photo thumbnails together, allowing users to switch between viewing the full video and viewing captured magic moment photos without leaving the playback interface. This merging resolves the contradiction by providing easy access to photos while maintaining a unified, manageable interface structure.
Solution Approach 2:
The playback interface is segmented into distinct functional regions: a video playback region for displaying the full video, and a thumbnail list region for displaying both video thumbnails and magic moment photo thumbnails. This segmentation allows the interface to handle multiple functions (video playback and photo browsing) simultaneously while maintaining clarity and ease of operation. Users can easily access magic moment photos through the thumbnail list without complicating the overall interface structure.
2Ease of operation
If the thumbnail list shows only magic moment photos, then photo viewing is enhanced, but the user cannot easily return to view the original video
Solution Approach 1:
The patent preserves the video playback context by maintaining the video player in the playback region even when magic moment photos are being viewed in the thumbnail list. The system prepares the video playback state in advance and keeps it active, so when users want to return to the video, they can simply select the corresponding video thumbnail without losing playback context. This preliminary preservation of video state resolves the contradiction by enabling easy switching while preventing information loss.
3Ease of operation
If magic moment photos are captured manually only, then user control is maximized, but the convenience and automatic capture of highlight moments is reduced
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements an automatic capture mechanism that monitors video content and automatically captures magic moment photos based on predefined criteria (such as detecting specific gestures, expressions, or scenes). The system serves itself by automatically identifying and capturing highlight moments without requiring continuous manual user input. This self-service capability enhances convenience while the automated nature of the process actually simplifies the user interaction, resolving the contradiction between automatic capture and device complexity.

AI summary
A method for browsing multimedia content and an apparatus. After video recording is completed, a magic moment photo can be viewed in a gallery. For example, when a video associated with a magic moment photo is displayed in a first region of a play interface, a thumbnail list including the magic moment photo may be displayed in the first region of the play interface. A user may select a thumbnail from the thumbnail list, and the first region of the play interface is refreshed from displaying the first video (that is, an original video) to displaying a magic moment photo associated with the video. According to this solution, the user can conveniently view magic moment content associated with an original video, so that the convenience for the user to view the magic moment content is improved, and user experience is improved.
