Video Stream Display Transition for Anti-Addiction Reminders
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing video streaming applications lack effective methods to remind users of their video watching addiction, leading to poor user perception and experience.
Innovation Solution
A display control method that switches videos from a larger to a smaller display area and displays prompt information outside the smaller area when a preset reminding condition is met, enhancing the anti-addiction reminder effect.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If text prompt is displayed to remind users of video watching addiction, then user reminder function is provided, but reminding effect is poor
Solution Approach 1:
The patent transitions from traditional text-based reminders to a video-based reminder system. By embedding reminder content within a video format rather than using plain text, the system engages users through visual and auditory dimensions, significantly enhancing the reminding effect and user perception while addressing video watching addiction.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent employs visual changes including displaying a video image that occupies the entire screen during the reminder period, and changing the background color or visual state of the interface. These visual transformations create a more noticeable and impactful reminder experience compared to subtle text prompts alone.
2Reliability
If video is switched from larger to smaller display area, then anti-addiction reminder effect is enhanced, but abruptness may occur
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements dynamic transition effects when changing the video display area. Instead of abrupt size changes, the video display area transitions smoothly from the original larger area to the reduced reminder area through animated scaling or fading effects, maintaining visual stability while enhancing the anti-addiction reminder effect.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent prepares for the display area change by implementing transition effects that cushion the abruptness. Before the video shrinks to the reminder area, visual transitions such as fading, scaling, or blending are applied to soften the change, preventing sudden visual shocks while maintaining the effectiveness of the anti-addiction reminder.
3Reliability
If prompt information is displayed outside the video area, then user attention is drawn to reminder, but interface space is reduced
Solution Approach 1:
The patent utilizes the temporal dimension by displaying the video reminder full-screen or in a prominent position that temporarily occupies the interface space. The reminder video plays for a predetermined period, during which other interface elements are hidden or minimized, ensuring user attention is fully directed to the anti-addiction message without permanent loss of interface space.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent implements periodic display of the reminder video at intervals during video watching sessions. The reminder is displayed for a predetermined time period, then the interface returns to its normal state. This periodic approach ensures user attention is drawn to the anti-addiction message while minimizing the impact on overall interface space availability.

AI summary
Disclosed in the embodiments of the present disclosure are a display control method and apparatus, and a device and a storage medium. The method includes: plays a first video in a first display area in a video stream playing interface of a preset application program. The method further receives a switching instruction. When a preset reminding condition is met, the method switches to play a second video in the first display area. The display area for the second video is changed from the first display area to a second display area during the playing process, and the size of the second display area is smaller than the size of the first display area. In addition, the method displays preset prompt information outside the second display area in the video stream playing interface.
