Solution Overview

Problem

Current video playback systems require cumbersome operations for users to view the video screen blocked by interactive controls, leading to a poor user experience.

Innovation Solution

A page display method that allows users to simplify the process by performing a multi-finger operation gesture to remove interactive controls from the video play region and either display alternative controls outside the region or magnify the video image, using a preset duration and magnification coefficient to manage the interaction.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Ease of operation

If interactive controls are displayed on the video play region, then user interaction is enabled, but the video image is blocked and requires cumbersome operations to view

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveease of viewing videoVSAvoidoperation complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent extracts the interactive controls from the video play region by detecting a multi-finger operation gesture. When the gesture is detected, the system removes the first interactive control and video information from the video play region, and displays a second interactive control in a preset region outside the video play region. This separation allows users to view the complete video image without obstruction while maintaining interaction capability through the relocated control.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #2Taking out (Extraction)

Solution Approach 2:

The patent implements dynamic display adjustment based on user gestures. The system transitions between different display states: normally showing interactive controls on the video play region, and upon detecting a multi-finger gesture, dynamically reconfiguring the display to show controls outside the video region or magnify the video image. This dynamic adaptation resolves the contradiction by providing different viewing modes according to user needs.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

2Area of stationary object

If interactive controls are removed from video play region, then video image is fully visible, but user interaction becomes difficult

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvevideo display areaVSAvoidinteraction accessibility
Core Design Contradiction:
Area of stationary objectVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

The patent moves the interactive control from the two-dimensional video play region to a preset region outside the video play region. This spatial relocation in another dimension allows the video image to occupy the full video play area without obstruction, while the control remains accessible through the preset region, maintaining user interaction capability without compromising video viewing area.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #17Another dimension (Dimensionality change)

3Ease of operation

If multi-finger operation is used to remove controls, then viewing is simplified, but gesture detection complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveoperation simplicityVSAvoidgesture recognition complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent uses a multi-finger operation gesture that serves multiple functions: it triggers both the removal of interactive controls from the video play region and can initiate video image magnification. By making the gesture detection mechanism multi-functional, the system reduces the need for separate complex detection mechanisms for different operations, thereby simplifying the overall interaction while managing detection complexity through unified gesture recognition.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #6Universality (Multi-functionality)

AI summary

A page display method and apparatus, an electronic device, a storage medium and a program product. The method comprises: displaying a video playback page, wherein an original video picture, video information and a first interaction control of a currently played video are displayed in the video playback page, the original video picture is displayed in a video playback area of the video playback page, and the video information and at least one first interaction control are displayed on the upper layer of the original video picture (S101); and in response to a first multi-finger operation gesture acting in the video playback page, stopping displaying the first interaction control and the video information in the video playback area, and displaying a second interaction control in a preset area outside the video playback area (S 102).
