Solution Overview

Problem

The existing draft function in multimedia material editing is inefficient due to the need to store large amounts of editing state attribute information locally, leading to slowed saving processes and increased complexity in restoring drafts, affecting the fluency and efficiency of editing.

Innovation Solution

A method for editing multimedia material that determines first and second editing task information to identify changes, allowing draft storage based on the difference between these states, reducing the need to store redundant data.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Reliability

If draft storage stores all editing state attribute information locally, then editing state can be fully restored, but saving speed slows down and restoration becomes more complex and time-consuming

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedraft restoration accuracyVSAvoiddraft saving and restoration speed
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSProductivity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent extracts only the essential editing state attribute information needed for draft restoration, separating it from redundant data. By identifying and storing only critical attributes (such as timeline position, selection state, and key editing parameters) rather than all possible attributes, the system achieves fast saving and restoration while maintaining sufficient restoration accuracy.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #2Taking out (Extraction)

Solution Approach 2:

The patent segments the editing state information into different categories (e.g., timeline information, selection information, editing parameter information) and stores only the necessary segments for draft restoration. This segmentation allows the system to reduce storage requirements and improve saving speed while still enabling accurate restoration of the editing state.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

2Reliability

If draft storage stores all editing state attribute information, then complete editing state restoration is achieved, but data redundancy increases and storage complexity grows

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveediting state restoration completenessVSAvoiddraft storage and processing complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent extracts and stores only the essential editing state attributes required for restoration, eliminating redundant data. By identifying critical attributes and storing only those, the system reduces storage complexity and data redundancy while maintaining complete restoration capability.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #2Taking out (Extraction)

Solution Approach 2:

The patent changes the parameters of data storage by transforming detailed editing state information into a simplified representation that captures only necessary attributes. This parameter transformation reduces the complexity of storage and processing while preserving the essential information needed for accurate draft restoration.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

AI summary

Embodiments of the present disclosure provides a method for editing and processing multimedia material, an electronic device and a storage medium. And the method includes: determining first editing task information associated with a first editing state; determining second editing task information associated with a second editing state; and performing draft storage on the second editing state of the editing task when the draft storage is triggered for the target editing task in the second editing state.
