Solution Overview

Problem

Existing video playback interfaces have limited flexibility and interactivity due to pre-customized local pages that are difficult to update, restricting user interaction and content display.

Innovation Solution

A method and apparatus for a video playing control system that detects touch operations on touchable elements, generates feedback content based on related information and preset response tactics, and adjusts video playback progress, allowing for dynamic configuration and display of touchable elements on a browser or local page.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Adaptability or versatility

If a pre-customized local page is used for video playback control, then the video playback interface can provide interaction functionality, but the flexibility and expandability of content display are limited

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveflexibility of content displayVSAvoidcomplexity of page configuration
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent implements dynamic configuration of touchable elements during video playback. The server can send updated configuration information to the terminal device at any time during playback, allowing the touchable elements (such as clickable controls for voting, polling, or information display) to be dynamically adjusted without requiring page reloads or manual intervention. This resolves the contradiction by enabling flexible content display while maintaining a simple, pre-defined page structure.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

Solution Approach 2:

The patent establishes a feedback mechanism where user interactions with touchable elements are captured and transmitted to the server. The server processes this feedback information and generates updated configuration information that is sent back to the terminal device. This closed-loop feedback system enables the system to adapt to user behavior and provide personalized or real-time updated content, improving flexibility while keeping the configuration mechanism simple through automated server-side processing.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback

2Adaptability or versatility

If a pre-customized local page is used for video playback control, then the video playback interface can provide interaction functionality, but the interactivity with users is limited

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveinteractivity with usersVSAvoidease of updating content
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

The patent enables dynamic updates of touchable element configurations during video playback without requiring users to manually update content. The server automatically receives user interaction data, processes it, and sends updated configuration information back to the terminal device, allowing content to be updated in real-time based on user behavior. This maintains ease of operation for users while significantly enhancing interactivity through automated, real-time content adaptation.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

Solution Approach 2:

The system implements self-service functionality where the terminal device automatically receives and applies configuration updates from the server without requiring user intervention. The browser or local page automatically incorporates new touchable elements or updates existing ones based on server-sent configuration information. This self-service mechanism preserves ease of operation for end users while enabling rich, dynamic interactivity through automated system updates.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

3Adaptability or versatility

If a browser page is used to display feedback content, then the flexibility and diversity of displayed contents are improved, but the system complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvediversity of displayed contentsVSAvoidcomplexity of system architecture
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent introduces a server as an intermediary between the terminal device and the content delivery system. The server receives user interaction information from the terminal device, processes this data, generates appropriate feedback content, and sends the configuration information back to the terminal device. This intermediary server handles the complexity of content generation and delivery, allowing the terminal device to maintain a relatively simple architecture while achieving diverse and flexible content display through the server's processing capabilities.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

AI summary

A video playing control method and apparatus, a device, and a storage medium. The method comprises: under the condition that a touch operation on a first touch element on a video playing interface is detected, obtaining feedback content generated on the basis of related information of the touch operation and a preset response strategy, and displaying the feedback content by means of a browser page, the video playing interface, or a local page (S1010); and under the condition that a touch operation on a second touch element on the browser page, the video playing interface, or the local page is detected, adjusting the video playing progress according to the touch operation on the second touch element (S1020).
