Solution Overview

Problem

Existing video display methods for mobile terminals do not effectively provide users with convenient services by linking video content to relevant local interests or services, such as nearby restaurants or shops, especially when the interest point is outside the user's current location.

Innovation Solution

A video display method that determines whether a preset object associated with a playing video meets a condition, such as being outside a user's current location, and displays a preset entrance identifier on the video screen. Upon triggering this identifier, the method displays associated videos that are linked to the original video's content, ensuring the user can access convenient services in their vicinity.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Ease of operation

If video content is displayed without location-based service linkage, then video playback simplicity is maintained, but user convenience for accessing local services is reduced

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

Solution Approach 1:

The patent introduces an entrance identifier as an intermediary element that links video content to local service information. When a user triggers this identifier during video playback, the system displays related local service information without requiring the user to manually search or navigate away from the video, thus improving convenience while maintaining relative system simplicity

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

Solution Approach 2:

The patent segments the service information display into a separate, optional layer that appears alongside or overlaid on the video playback. This allows the video playback function to remain simple and independent, while the service linkage feature can be activated independently through the entrance identifier, resolving the contradiction between simplicity and enhanced functionality

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

2Productivity

If general video content is displayed without content association, then video accessibility is improved, but user engagement with relevant content is reduced

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveuser engagementVSAvoidcontent relevance detection
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSDifficulty of detecting and measuring

Solution Approach 1:

The system implements feedback by analyzing video content characteristics (such as POI information, scene recognition, or metadata) and automatically generating corresponding entrance identifiers that link to relevant local services. This feedback loop ensures that the displayed service information is relevant to the current video content, thereby improving user engagement without requiring manual user input for content matching

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback

Solution Approach 2:

The system performs self-service by automatically detecting and extracting relevant service information from the video content itself. The entrance identifier is generated based on the video's own characteristics (such as recognized locations, objects, or themes), allowing the system to autonomously create meaningful connections between video content and local services without external intervention or complex user queries

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

AI summary

The embodiments of the present disclosure provide a video display method and apparatus, an electronic device and a storage medium. The method comprising: in response to a first media item comprising a first preset object being played, determining whether a second preset object associated with the first media item meets a preset condition; in response to the second preset object associated with the first media item meeting the preset condition, displaying a preset identifier on a playing screen of the first media item; and in response to a triggering acting on the preset identifier, displaying at least one second media item, wherein the at least one second media item is at least one media item associated with the first preset object, which is determined based on associated information of the first media item.
