Multi-Screen Video Playback Configuration Mapping
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Current video playback methods on multi-screen terminal devices require users to manually search and click on each video file to play, making the process cumbersome and inflexible.
Innovation Solution
A video playback method and terminal device that obtain and play multiple video files across multiple screens based on configuration information indicating screen identifiers, allowing for automatic display and playback without manual user intervention.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If users manually search and click each video file to play, then the playback process is simple to implement, but the operation becomes cumbersome and time-consuming
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs preliminary action by automatically obtaining configuration information that maps video files to screen identifiers before playback. This pre-established mapping relationship eliminates the need for users to manually search and select video files during playback, directly resolving the contradiction between ease of operation and time consumption.
Solution Approach 2:
The system implements self-service by automatically determining which video files to play on which screens based on the configuration information. The terminal device autonomously completes the video playback arrangement without requiring manual user intervention, thereby improving operational ease while reducing time loss.
2Adaptability or versatility
If users manually search and click each video file, then the system implementation is straightforward, but the playback manner becomes single and inflexible
Solution Approach 1:
The system applies segmentation by dividing the video playback function into distinct components: configuration information storage (mapping video files to screen identifiers), automatic video file selection, and playback execution. This modular segmentation enables flexible playback modes while keeping each component relatively simple, resolving the contradiction between adaptability and device complexity.
Solution Approach 2:
The configuration information acts as an intermediary between the video files and the playback system. This intermediary layer contains the mapping relationships between video files and screen identifiers, allowing the system to flexibly determine playback arrangements without complex direct control logic, thus enhancing adaptability while managing complexity.

AI summary
Embodiments of the present disclosure provide a video playback method and a terminal device. The method is applied to a first terminal device including N screens, and includes: obtaining M video files and configuration information of the M video files, where the configuration information is used for indicating a screen identifier associated with each of the M video files; and playing K video files in the M video files on K screens in the N screens according to the configuration information, where both N and K are positive integers, and M is an integer greater than or equal to 2.
