Single-Play Video Processing with Countdown and End-Frame Masking
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing video-based entertainment modes lack diversity and user engagement, as most videos can be replayed multiple times, reducing the immersive experience.
Innovation Solution
Implement a video processing method that supports playback only once, using a countdown progress bar and a mask layer to indicate single-play videos, accompanied by interactive features like shooting prompts and editing options.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If video playback supports multiple replays, then user convenience is improved, but user engagement and immersive experience deteriorate
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements dynamic playback control by introducing a countdown progress bar that automatically stops playback after a predetermined time, transforming the static replay capability into a dynamic single-play experience. This resolves the contradiction by making the playback system adaptable to different entertainment modes (single-play vs. replay) based on video type, thereby improving both user convenience and entertainment mode diversity.
2Ease of operation
If video playback allows progress adjustment, then user control is improved, but immersive experience deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies different playback control qualities to different video types. For single-play videos, the progress bar is made non-adjustable to maintain immersion, while for replayable videos, full control is retained. This local differentiation resolves the contradiction by providing appropriate control flexibility only where needed, thereby enhancing both user control and interaction mode uniqueness simultaneously.
3Loss of information
If countdown progress bar is displayed, then single-play indication is improved, but user interface complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The countdown progress bar serves multiple functions simultaneously: it indicates playback progress, shows remaining time, signals single-play status, and provides visual feedback for automatic stopping. By consolidating these functions into a single UI element, the patent reduces interface complexity while improving status visibility, thereby resolving the contradiction effectively.

AI summary
The present disclosure provides a video processing method and apparatus, a device, and a storage medium. The method comprises: when a target video is being played back, displaying a playback progress bar in a preset countdown mode, wherein the playback progress bar does not support adjustment of a playback progress function; and if detected that playback of a last frame of the target video has ended, then stopping the playback of the target video, displaying a mask layer on a video picture of the last frame of the target video, and displaying preset prompt information on the mask layer, wherein the preset prompt information is used for prompting that the target video only supports playback once.
