Solution Overview

Problem

Current methods for video recording during live streaming are inconvenient for users, often missing timely interactions between audiences and anchors, leading to a poor user experience due to manual recording requirements.

Innovation Solution

A method and apparatus for automatic video recording on a terminal device that detects specific events, such as gift thresholds, to obtain and generate videos based on user identifiers and voice data from anchors, using screen recording technology to capture relevant interactions.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Measurement precision

If manual recording is used by audiences, then recording function is available, but timing accuracy deteriorates and convenience worsens

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvetiming accuracyVSAvoidrecording convenience
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

The system performs automatic recording without requiring user intervention. The terminal device automatically detects interaction events between audiences and anchors, triggers recording based on predefined conditions, and saves videos without manual operation, thereby improving both timing accuracy and convenience

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

Solution Approach 2:

The system continuously monitors live streaming interaction data and provides feedback by automatically triggering recording when specific interaction conditions are met. This feedback mechanism ensures accurate timing by responding to actual interaction events while maintaining ease of operation through automated decision-making

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback

2Ease of operation

If automatic recording is implemented, then recording convenience improves, but system complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improverecording convenienceVSAvoidsystem complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The terminal device utilizes its existing multi-functional capabilities (screen recording, audio recording, event detection) to achieve automatic recording. By leveraging already-present functions rather than adding dedicated new components, the system maintains ease of operation while minimizing the increase in overall system complexity

Inventive Principle:
Principle #6Universality (Multi-functionality)

Solution Approach 2:

The system combines screen recording functionality with audio recording and event detection into an integrated automatic recording solution. By merging these functions that already exist in the terminal device, the system achieves automatic operation without requiring separate dedicated components for each function

Inventive Principle:
Principle #5Merging (Combining)

3Device complexity

If manual recording is used, then device complexity remains low, but user experience deteriorates

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvesystem complexityVSAvoiduser experience
Core Design Contradiction:
Device complexityVSReliability

Solution Approach 1:

The system automatically captures interaction moments without requiring users to manually initiate recording. This self-service approach ensures that significant interactions are reliably captured without user intervention, improving user experience while maintaining relatively simple device architecture by utilizing existing recording capabilities

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

AI summary

Embodiments of the present disclosure provide a method for video recording, an apparatus for video recording, and a terminal device. The method can be applied to a first terminal. The first terminal can be configured to play a live video of a second terminal when the second terminal is on live. The method can include: obtaining a user identifier of a target audience logging into the first terminal; obtaining voice data of an anchor in the live video within a time period in response to detecting a first event, wherein the time period is after a current time point; and generating a video through screen recording based on the user identifier and the voice data.
