Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Users face inconvenience in watching videos online due to the need to repeatedly access video playing pages and are often distracted by irrelevant content, such as advertisements, which negatively impacts the user experience.
Innovation Solution
A video processing method and apparatus that obtain video playing information from a video page's source code using a video processing rule, allowing users to play videos directly without opening the video page and filtering out irrelevant content by displaying the video in a floating layer above the original page.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Object-affected harmful factors
If users access video playing pages to watch videos, then they can view video content, but they are exposed to irrelevant content such as advertisements which degrades user experience
Solution Approach 1:
The patent extracts only the necessary video playing information (video URL, title, thumbnail) from the video page source code using regular expressions, separating the useful video content from irrelevant content like advertisements. This allows users to access videos directly without being exposed to distracting elements on the original video pages.
2Productivity
If users manually search or input video page addresses, then they can access video content, but it requires repeated operations which reduces efficiency
Solution Approach 1:
The patent performs preliminary action by automatically collecting video playing information from multiple video pages in advance, storing it in a structured format with regular expressions. When users want to watch a video, the system can quickly retrieve and present the video information without requiring users to perform repeated search or navigation operations.
3Ease of operation
If users open video playing pages to watch videos, then they can access video content, but the process of uploading and entering pages is inconvenient
Solution Approach 1:
The patent introduces an intermediary component that acts as a bridge between users and video content. Instead of directly opening video playing pages, the system uses an intermediary interface that displays collected video information and allows users to play videos directly from this intermediate layer, eliminating the need for page navigation and making video access more convenient.
Data Source
AI summary
Provided are a method, a device, a server, and a client device for video processing. The method includes: obtaining, according to the page address of a first video page, page source code of the first video page and video processing rules corresponding to the first video page, the first video page corresponding to the first video; obtaining from the page source code, according to the page source code of the first video page and the video processing rules corresponding to the first video page, video playback information of the first video. The method obtains, by using preset video processing rules, video playback information from a video playback page and associated with a video. Further, video can be played directly without entering a video playback page.
