Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Users face a cumbersome and inefficient process when accessing live broadcasts or short videos from followed accounts in social video applications, requiring multiple steps and menu navigations.
Innovation Solution
A video access method and apparatus that displays an entrance presentation bar on the terminal interface, allowing users to quickly access videos from followed accounts by selecting profile pictures or video access entrances, which triggers the display of a video play page upon user operation.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If users follow the traditional access path through search bar and multiple menu layers, then the system maintains structured navigation, but the access process becomes fussy and complex
Solution Approach 1:
The system pre-arranges video access entrances on the terminal interface before users need to access videos. The entrance presentation bar displays profile pictures of video-updated users in advance, allowing users to directly access videos without navigating through multiple menu layers or searching manually.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent extracts the video access function from the traditional nested menu structure and presents it directly on the terminal interface through the entrance presentation bar. This separates the video access operation from the complex navigation path, allowing users to access videos directly without going through multiple intermediate steps.
2Loss of time
If users manually search and navigate through account homepage, then the system provides comprehensive video access, but the operation time increases
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs preliminary action by pre-displaying the entrance presentation bar with profile pictures of video-updated users on the terminal interface. This allows users to immediately access videos without manually searching or navigating through account homepages, significantly reducing access time and improving productivity.
Solution Approach 2:
The entrance presentation bar acts as an intermediary between the user and the video content. Instead of requiring users to manually search and navigate through multiple pages, the presentation bar provides direct access points (profile pictures) that mediate the connection between users and videos, eliminating the time-consuming manual navigation process.
3Ease of operation
If the system displays detailed access paths, then users can understand navigation steps, but the interface complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent extracts the essential access function from the complex interface structure and presents it through the simplified entrance presentation bar. The bar displays only the necessary information (profile pictures of video-updated users) without showing complex navigation paths, reducing interface complexity while maintaining ease of operation.
Solution Approach 2:
The system segments the video access function into discrete, visible elements on the entrance presentation bar. Each profile picture represents a separate access point, allowing users to easily identify and select desired videos without being overwhelmed by complex interface structures or detailed navigation paths.

AI summary
Disclosed are video access methods and apparatuses, a client, a terminal, a server and a memory medium, wherein the method comprises: receiving entrance presentation data of a video-updated user, wherein the video-updated user includes a user who has a video updated among followed users; displaying an entrance presentation bar on the current terminal interface, and presenting at least one video access entrance in the entrance presentation bar based on the entrance presentation data; and displaying, responsive to a client user's preset operation on any video access entrance in the entrance presentation bar, a video play page corresponding to the preset operation.
