Solution Overview

Problem

Current video capture systems on mobile devices only offer a default save mode for videos, requiring manual user intervention to save videos in alternative formats, which can result in cumbersome operations and poor browsing experiences.

Innovation Solution

A method and apparatus that automatically detect video files to generate additional save modes based on detection results, such as duration length, shooting content, and background changes, allowing for automatic selection of suitable save modes like photo, animated graphic, or compressed video formats.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Adaptability or versatility

If the system provides only a default save mode for video files, then the system complexity is reduced, but the adaptability and user experience deteriorate

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvesave mode adaptabilityVSAvoidsystem complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The system automatically detects video characteristics (duration, content type, background changes) and autonomously determines the most appropriate save mode without requiring user intervention. This self-service mechanism provides multiple adaptible save modes while maintaining simple user interaction, resolving the contradiction between adaptability and complexity.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

Solution Approach 2:

The system changes the save mode parameters based on detected video characteristics. By analyzing video duration, content type, and background changes, the system dynamically adjusts the save mode parameters to match the video content, enabling adaptability without requiring complex user configuration interfaces.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

2Ease of operation

If manual operations are required to save videos in alternative formats, then the system complexity is reduced, but the ease of operation deteriorates

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvevideo saving operation easeVSAvoidprocessing complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The system performs preliminary detection of video characteristics (duration, content type, background changes) before the user needs to save the video. Based on this preliminary analysis, the system pre-determines the most suitable save mode, eliminating the need for manual user operations while maintaining simple interaction. The processing complexity is handled automatically in the background.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

3Adaptability or versatility

If the system provides multiple save modes automatically, then the adaptability improves, but the processing time increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvesave mode diversityVSAvoidvideo processing time
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The system performs partial detection focusing on key video characteristics (duration, content type, background changes) rather than analyzing every aspect of the video in detail. This selective detection approach provides sufficient information to determine appropriate save modes while minimizing processing time, balancing adaptability with efficiency.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #16Partial or excessive action

AI summary

Method, apparatus, and computer-readable storage medium for video file processing are provided. A video file is obtained, which includes a first save mode. The video file is detected to obtain a detection result. According to the corresponding detection result, at least one second save mode different from the first save mode is generated to save the video file.
