Solution Overview

Problem

Existing display technologies require users to navigate between primary and secondary pages to view media asset data, disrupting the user experience.

Innovation Solution

Implement a method where media asset data are previewed or expanded directly on the primary page based on preset conditions, such as selector duration or user input, and utilize expansion controls to display additional assets without requiring secondary pages.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Ease of operation

If media asset data are displayed on a secondary page, then the data can be organized and presented, but the user experience deteriorates due to requiring page navigation

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveuser experienceVSAvoidnavigation complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent merges the media asset data display from a separate secondary page into the primary page itself. When a selector hovers over or selects a media asset control, the corresponding media asset data (such as plot descriptions, cast information, or reviews) are displayed directly on the primary page in a data display area, eliminating the need for users to navigate to a secondary page and reducing navigation complexity.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #5Merging (Combining)

Solution Approach 2:

The patent utilizes the data display area on the primary page as an additional dimension for presenting media asset information. Instead of requiring users to transition to a separate secondary page, the system leverages the existing primary page space to display supplementary data, effectively using the available display real estate more efficiently and improving user experience.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #17Another dimension (Dimensionality change)

2Productivity

If media asset data are displayed on the primary page, then user experience improves through direct access, but the page layout complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveaccess efficiencyVSAvoidpage layout complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent segments the primary page into distinct functional areas: a media asset control display area for showing asset thumbnails or icons, and a data display area for presenting detailed media asset information. This segmentation allows the page to handle multiple types of information simultaneously while maintaining clear visual organization and reducing layout complexity.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The patent implements a dynamic display mechanism where the data display area on the primary page adaptively shows media asset data based on user interaction. When the selector hovers over or selects a media asset control, the system dynamically populates the data display area with relevant information, allowing the layout to remain flexible and responsive rather than statically complex.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

AI summary

The disclosure discloses a method for displaying media asset data and a display apparatus. The method includes: receiving an instruction for a selector to move to a media asset control on a primary page; if content corresponding to the media asset control is classified media assets and meets a preset condition, sending a request for previewing data, wherein the preset condition includes that when a duration that the selector is located on the media asset control reaches a preset duration or an instruction for selecting the media asset control is received, the request for previewing data is sent; receiving feedback content according to the request for previewing data from the server; and if the feedback content includes the media asset data, controlling a display to show the media asset data on the primary page.
