A method and apparatus that allow the user to preview the video being posted by displaying a posting identifier during the posting process, enabling timely discovery of issues and reducing waiting time.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Loss of time

If the user waits for the video posting to complete before viewing, then the posting process is simple, but the time consumed is long and user experience is poor

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvetime consumed for video posting and viewing processVSAvoidvideo posting and viewing process simplicity
Core Design Contradiction:
Loss of timeVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

The system performs preliminary actions by starting to play the video and displaying the posting identifier during the posting process, rather than waiting for posting to complete. This allows the user to preview the video content immediately while the posting continues in the background, effectively reducing the perceived waiting time without complicating the operation flow.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

2Ease of operation

If the video is played during posting, then user experience is improved, but the system complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveuser experience during video postingVSAvoidvideo posting system complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The posting identifier serves as an intermediary element that mediates between the video posting process and the user interface. It provides visual feedback about the posting status while the video plays in the background, allowing the system to maintain simplicity by using a dedicated indicator rather than complex status management mechanisms.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)
