Solution Overview

Problem

Existing music sharing services face limitations in providing music and advertisements integrated into visual media, particularly in terms of playback restrictions and user access control, which hinder seamless distribution and playback across various devices.

Innovation Solution

A music sharing system that includes a server capable of producing music sharing content with embedded advertisements, generating access addresses, and transmitting this content to client devices, allowing users to select and play music and advertisements within video files, with features for playback limitations and user permission management.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Adaptability or versatility

If music sharing content includes embedded advertisements and integrated visual media, then content distribution capability and user experience are improved, but device compatibility and playback reliability deteriorate due to limitations in client device specifications

Engineering Contradiction:

Improvecontent distribution capabilityVSAvoidplayback reliability

Core Design Contradiction:

Adaptability or versatilityVSReliability

Solution Approach 1:

The music sharing content is segmented into multiple playback segments with different quality levels. The server divides the integrated visual media content into segments that can be adapted to different device capabilities, allowing high-end devices to play back complete content with advertisements while lower-spec devices receive simplified versions

Inventive Principle:

Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The system dynamically changes playback parameters such as resolution, bitrate, and format based on the client device's specifications. The server detects device capabilities and adjusts content delivery parameters to ensure reliable playback across diverse devices while maintaining advertisement integration

Inventive Principle:

Principle #35Parameter changes

2Reliability

If playback restrictions and user permission management are implemented, then content access control and copyright protection are improved, but user access convenience and system operation complexity deteriorate

Engineering Contradiction:

Improvecontent access controlVSAvoiduser access convenience

Core Design Contradiction:

ReliabilityVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

User permissions and playback restrictions are configured in advance by content providers or system administrators. Access control rules, permission levels, and playback limitations are pre-established, allowing users to access content automatically without encountering complex authorization interfaces during playback

Inventive Principle:

Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The system implements automatic permission verification and access control mechanisms that operate transparently in the background. Users do not need to manually manage permissions; the system automatically handles authentication, authorization, and compliance with playback restrictions based on pre-configured rules

Inventive Principle:

Principle #25Self-service
