Mobile Terminal Memo Input During Video Playback
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Current mobile terminals lack a convenient method for users to input memos while watching videos, requiring repetitive video playback to note specific parts, which is inefficient and inconvenient.
Innovation Solution
A mobile terminal with a touchscreen and controller that activates a memo function by recording the touch path as a writing memo during video playback, allowing users to easily save and link memos to specific video points, enabling efficient memo input and video editing.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If users want to input memos during video playback, then memo input convenience is improved, but video playback continuity is disrupted
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs preliminary actions by automatically pausing the video at the exact moment a memo input is detected, and then automatically resuming playback after the memo is completed. This eliminates the need for manual pause/resume operations by the user, maintaining video playback continuity while enabling convenient memo input.
Solution Approach 2:
The system serves itself by automatically detecting when the user intends to input a memo (through touch drag gestures), automatically pausing the video, and automatically resuming playback after the memo is finished. The system manages the entire memo input process without requiring user intervention for pause/resume operations.
2Measurement precision
If users need to note specific video parts, then memo precision is improved, but time consumption increases
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs preliminary actions by automatically pausing the video at the precise moment a memo input gesture is detected, ensuring the memo is captured at the exact video position the user intends. This eliminates the need for users to manually note down time positions, improving both precision and time efficiency.
Solution Approach 2:
The system provides feedback by displaying the memo input interface and confirming the video position automatically, allowing users to verify that the memo is being taken at the correct moment without having to manually track time positions, thus improving precision while reducing time consumption.
3Ease of operation
If manual video playback and memo taking are performed separately, then operation simplicity is maintained, but productivity decreases
Solution Approach 1:
The system merges the video playback control and memo input operations into a single integrated process. When a user performs a touch drag gesture to input a memo, the system automatically pauses the video, captures the memo at the correct position, and then resumes playback, combining multiple separate operations into one seamless action that improves productivity while maintaining simplicity.
Solution Approach 2:
The touch drag gesture serves multiple functions: it activates the memo input interface, triggers automatic video pausing, marks the current video position, and initiates the recording process. This multi-functional approach allows users to perform memo taking during video playback efficiently without adding complex separate operations, thereby improving productivity while keeping the interface simple.

AI summary
A mobile terminal and controlling method thereof are disclosed, which facilitates a terminal to be used in further consideration of user's convenience. The present invention includes a touchscreen, a memory, and a controller outputting a play screen of a video to the touchscreen, the controller, if receiving a touch drag input to the outputted plays screen of the video, activating a memo function of saving a touch path of the touch drag input as a writing memo, the controller recording the outputted play screen of the video while the memo function is activated. Accordingly, while a mobile terminal plays a video, a user interface for enabling a user to input a memo more quickly and conveniently can be provided advantageously.
