Solution Overview

Problem

Existing multimedia applications lack effective user interaction methods for switching between multimedia content pages, particularly in non-touch screen devices, leading to reduced user engagement and potential erroneous operations.

Innovation Solution

A control method and apparatus that enables switching from a first multimedia content page to an extension page by detecting a preset attitude change of a terminal device, such as tilting or rotating, with conditions like duration, number of interactions, or progress bars, to enhance user interaction and reduce erroneous switching.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Ease of operation

If a user manually selects and inputs a target account for content sharing, then the content can be shared with the selected account, but the operation becomes complex and time-consuming when multiple accounts need to be managed

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveease of content sharing operationVSAvoidtime for selecting and managing accounts
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The system automatically determines the target account based on the communication channel where the content was received, eliminating the need for manual account selection. The electronic device self-services by autonomously identifying and routing content to the appropriate account associated with the communication channel.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

Solution Approach 2:

The communication channel acts as an intermediary that links the content sharing operation to the target account. Instead of directly selecting accounts, the system uses the communication channel as a mediator to indirectly identify and route content to the correct account.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

2Adaptability or versatility

If the system stores multiple account information for different communication channels, then content can be automatically routed to the correct account, but the device complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveadaptability to different communication channelsVSAvoidcomplexity of account management system
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The account information database is designed to universally store multiple accounts across different communication channels using a unified structure. This multi-functional database can handle various channel types (messaging, social media, email) with the same storage mechanism, reducing overall system complexity.

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

Solution Approach 2:

The account management system is segmented by communication channels, with each channel having its associated account information stored separately. This segmentation allows the system to manage complexity by organizing accounts in modular units tied to specific channels rather than maintaining a single complex account list.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

3Ease of operation

If content is shared without automatic account determination, then the system remains simple, but the user experience deteriorates when sharing across multiple accounts

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveuser experience in content sharingVSAvoidsimplicity of system architecture
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The system uses feedback from the communication channel identification process to automatically determine the target account. When content is received through a specific channel, the system receives feedback about which channel it is, uses this feedback to query the account information database, and automatically routes the content to the correct account without user intervention.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback

Solution Approach 2:

The account information for different communication channels is pre-stored and organized in the database before content sharing occurs. This preliminary preparation allows the system to quickly and automatically determine the target account at the moment of sharing without requiring complex real-time analysis or user input.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

AI summary

The present disclosure relates to the technical field of multimedia, and in particular, to a control method and apparatus for multimedia content display, an electronic device, and a medium. First multimedia content is displayed on a first page; and in response to a terminal device changing in a preset attitude, the first page is switched to a second page, and second multimedia content is displayed on the second page. That is, the switching of the first page to the second page is implemented by triggering the attitude change of the terminal device, thereby improving the interestingness of user interaction.
