Multi-Source Live Streaming Interface for Permission-Limited Content
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Traditional live streaming methods lack flexibility, particularly in scenarios where content permissions constrain personal live streaming rooms from broadcasting certain events, limiting the diversity and richness of streaming content.
Innovation Solution
A method and apparatus that allows a live streaming room to incorporate and present video content from both a first source associated with the streaming party and a second source, enabling the integration of additional live streaming rooms, with options for layout and priority configuration, and merging video streams to enhance flexibility and quality.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If traditional live streaming methods are used, then the system is simple to operate, but the content diversity and flexibility are limited due to permission constraints
Solution Approach 1:
The patent merges multiple video sources (first video content from first source and second video content from second source) into a single live streaming interface, allowing the first live streaming room to simultaneously display content from multiple sources. This combining approach increases content diversity while maintaining a unified interface that does not significantly increase operational complexity for users.
Solution Approach 2:
The live streaming interface is designed to handle multiple functions: displaying first video content from the primary source, displaying second video content from associated sources, and providing navigation to second live streaming rooms. This multi-functional design allows a single interface to serve multiple purposes, enhancing adaptability without requiring separate systems for each function.
2Reliability
If multiple video sources are integrated, then the content quality and user experience improve, but the interface complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The interface is segmented into distinct functional areas: a first area displaying first video content from the primary source and a second area displaying second video content from associated sources. This segmentation allows multiple video sources to be presented in an organized, non-overlapping manner that maintains interface simplicity while delivering high-quality multi-source content.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent introduces an intermediary entry that provides indirect access to second live streaming rooms. Instead of directly displaying multiple complex interfaces, the entry acts as a mediator that allows users to navigate to additional content sources, thereby maintaining interface simplicity while still providing access to diverse high-quality content.
3Adaptability or versatility
If personal live streaming rooms are constrained by content permissions, then the system maintains control and security, but the flexibility and richness of streaming content are reduced
Solution Approach 1:
The patent enables personal live streaming rooms to access and display video content from other sources (first source and second source) without requiring direct broadcasting permissions for each source. By copying or referencing video streams from authorized sources and displaying them within the personal live streaming interface, the system maintains permission control while significantly increasing streaming flexibility and content richness.
