Solution Overview

Problem

Existing video platforms struggle to balance user roles between viewers and creators, limiting the ability for users to seamlessly transition from consuming content to creating their own content.

Innovation Solution

A method and system that provides a video generating link on the video playback page, allowing users to enter a template editing page based on the current video, with personalized template recommendations to facilitate content creation, including obtaining and caching video templates to reduce waiting time and improve user experience.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Productivity

If users are provided with video templates and a video generating link on the playback page, then content creation conversion rate is improved, but system complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvecontent creation conversion rateVSAvoidsystem complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The system pre-prepares and caches video templates before users need them. When a user clicks on a video in the feed, the template is obtained and cached in advance, so when the user later clicks the video generating link, the template is already available, reducing waiting time and improving conversion rate without requiring complex real-time processing

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The patent introduces a template caching mechanism as an intermediary between the template library and the user interface. This caching layer acts as a buffer that simplifies the interaction by pre-loading templates and making them readily available, reducing the complexity of real-time template retrieval and processing

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

2Loss of time

If video templates are obtained and cached in advance, then waiting time is reduced, but memory usage increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvewaiting timeVSAvoidmemory usage
Core Design Contradiction:
Loss of timeVSQuantity of substance

Solution Approach 1:

The system implements local caching of video templates specifically on the playback page where users are most likely to convert to creators. By caching templates locally in the browser's memory rather than retrieving them from the server each time, the system reduces waiting time for users while concentrating memory usage only where it provides the most value - on the playback page with video feeds

Inventive Principle:
Principle #3Local quality

AI summary

Disclosed are a method an electronic device and a computer storage medium for generating a video. The method includes: receiving a video generating instruction, wherein the video generating instruction is generated in response to a user operation on a video generating link on a video playback page; obtaining video templates based on the video generating instruction, where the video templates comprises a first video template, and the first video template is a template adopted by a current video shown on the video playback page; determining a target template based on the video template; and generating the video based on the target template.
