Solution Overview

Problem

Existing video processing technologies lack diverse interactive functions during video playback, which hampers user experience.

Innovation Solution

Display user identifiers on a video play page to identify associated users, and upon trigger, display a panel with media content information of the selected user, enabling interactive features like profile access and relationship establishment.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Adaptability or versatility

If traditional video playback interface is used, then the interface is simple and easy to understand, but interactive functions are limited and user experience is not enriched

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveinteractive functionsVSAvoidinterface complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent segments the video playback interface by separating user identifier display from the main video content area. User identifiers are displayed as discrete elements along the video timeline, allowing users to interact with specific users' contributions without overwhelming the entire interface. This segmentation enables enhanced interactivity while maintaining interface simplicity.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The patent adds a temporal dimension to the video playback interface by displaying user identifiers along the video timeline. This transforms the traditional two-dimensional video player into a multi-dimensional interface where users can navigate and interact with different users' content at specific time points, enriching interactive functions without significantly increasing perceived complexity.

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

2Adaptability or versatility

If user identifiers and interactive panels are added to video play page, then interactive capabilities are enriched, but interface complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveinteractive capabilitiesVSAvoidinterface structure
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent implements preliminary action by pre-displaying user identifiers along the video timeline before users need to interact with specific content. This allows users to see all associated users and their contribution locations in advance, enabling informed interaction decisions without requiring complex real-time processing or multiple interface transitions.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The patent applies nesting by placing the interactive panel within the existing video playback interface. When a user identifier is selected, a panel is nested within the video player showing that user's information and contributions, allowing multiple levels of interaction (video → user identifier → user panel → specific content) without requiring separate interface windows or applications.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #7Nested doll (Nesting)

AI summary

The present disclosure provides a method, an apparatus, a device and a storage medium for video-based interaction. The method comprises: displaying a plurality of user identifiers on a video play page of a target video, wherein the target video has a plurality of associated users, and the user identifiers are used to identify the associated users; in response to a trigger operation on a target user identifier of the plurality of user identifiers, displaying a preset panel on the video play page, and displaying preset media content information of a target associated user corresponding to the target user identifier in a first display area on the preset panel.
