Short-Video Hotspot List Overlay for Slide Navigation
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing short-video play applications do not allow users to systematically learn about trending videos viewed by other users, limiting the user's understanding of popular content.
Innovation Solution
A method and apparatus that displays a trending list in a layer on a video player interface, triggered by a slide instruction, showing video properties of multiple trending videos, including popularity rank, cover page, and viewer count, while allowing seamless video switching.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Loss of information
If the user slides upward or downward on the recommendation page to switch between videos, then the user can view recommended videos, but the user cannot systematically learn about trending videos viewed by other users
Solution Approach 1:
The patent introduces a new dimension of information display by superimposing a trending list overlay on the video player interface. This overlay displays trending video information (rank, cover, viewer count) in a separate visual layer, allowing users to access trending content information without leaving the current video playback context or changing the fundamental slide-based navigation operation.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent uses an intermediary overlay element that mediates between the video playback function and the trending information display. This overlay acts as a bridge, providing trending video information without interfering with the primary video playback and sliding navigation functionality, thus resolving the contradiction between information accessibility and operational simplicity.
2Loss of information
If a trending list is displayed on the video player interface, then users can learn about trending videos, but the video playback may be disrupted
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements a nested structure where the trending list overlay is superimposed on the video player interface without blocking the video playback area. The video player remains the primary container, and the trending information is nested within this framework as a non-intrusive overlay, allowing both functions to coexist harmoniously.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent applies local quality by providing trending information in specific localized areas (overlay positions) without affecting the overall video playback quality. The overlay displays information in designated regions while maintaining the integrity and continuity of the video playback in the main display area, thus preserving reliability while adding information value.

AI summary
Provided are a trending list display method and apparatus, an electronic device, and a storage medium. The method includes displaying a target video in a first video player interface; receiving a first slide instruction on the first video player interface, where the first slide instruction is used for switching current content of the first video player interface; and in response to the first slide instruction satisfying a trigger condition for displaying a trending list, displaying a preset video of the trending list on the first video player interface, displaying the trending list in a layer on the preset video, and displaying video properties of multiple trending videos in the trending list.
