In order to implement dynamically generating an interface of a player, an embodiment of the present invention provides an interaction method of a player, which specifically includes the following steps:

step 101, loading a dynamic interface control script and a layout file of an interface control; the dynamic interface control script and the layout file are issued by a preset server;

in an embodiment of the present invention, the player may be used to play multimedia content. The multimedia content may include video, audio, pictures, etc. The player may be disposed in an electronic device, and the electronic device may be a desktop computer, a notebook computer, a tablet computer, a mobile phone, a television, and the like, which is not limited in this respect.

In the embodiment of the present invention, the dynamic interface control script may be used to generate an interface control. The layout file can be used for describing the layout mode of the interface control on the player interface and the response mode of the event.

In this embodiment of the present invention, the dynamic interface control script and the layout file may be applicable to all multimedia contents, or may be specific to at least one specific multimedia content, which is not limited in this embodiment of the present invention.

In the embodiment of the present invention, a server may be preset, and the server may perform data transmission with the player through a network, so that the server may issue the dynamic interface control script and the layout file to the player.

In the embodiment of the present invention, the server may actively issue the dynamic interface control script and the layout file to the player. The server can also respond to an interface control updating request sent by a player and issue the dynamic interface control script and the layout file to the player.

As an example of the present invention, after the dynamic interface control script and the layout file stored in the server are updated, the server may issue the updated dynamic interface control script and the updated layout file to the player.

As an example of the present invention, the server may obtain a multi-media content loading request of the player, and issue the dynamic interface control script and the layout file to the player in a process of returning multimedia content to the player.

As an example of the present invention, when the player is started or when a multimedia content is ready to be loaded in response to a multimedia playing operation of a user, the player may send an interface control update request to the server, and obtain the dynamic interface control script and the layout file returned by the server.

In the embodiment of the present invention, after obtaining the dynamic interface control script and the layout file, the player may load the dynamic interface control script and the layout file, so that the player may dynamically load the interface control by executing the dynamic interface control script.

And 102, analyzing the layout file by executing the dynamic interface control script in the process of playing the multimedia content by the player, and generating an interface control in a preset player interface.

In the embodiment of the present invention, in the process of playing multimedia content by the player, the player may analyze the layout file by executing the dynamic interface control script, so as to generate an interface control on a preset player interface. So that the player can dynamically load the interface control without being limited by the version update of the player. When the interface control of the player is expected to change, a server can issue a new dynamic interface control script and a layout file, and then the update of the interface control of the player can be completed.

In the embodiment of the present invention, at least one time point may be preset in the dynamic interface control script. The player may execute the dynamic interface control script and parse the layout file. In the process of playing multimedia content by the player, an interface control can be generated in the preset player interface when the time point specified by the dynamic interface control script is reached. Further, if the player continues to play the multimedia content and another time point specified by the dynamic interface control script is reached, a new interface control can be generated on the preset player interface. Therefore, in the process that the player continues to play the multimedia content, the player can also dynamically update the interface control, and dynamic interface display and richer operation functions are provided for the user.

As an optional implementation manner of the present invention, the dynamic interface display may include: displaying a movable interface control on a player interface; displaying an interface control operable by a user on a player interface; displaying interface controls with corresponding styles on a player interface according to the types of the multimedia contents; according to the requirements of current affair hotspots, content promotion and the like, the interface displays the interface control and the like of corresponding content during playing, and the method is not limited to the method.

As an example of the present invention, the player may load a dynamic interface control script and a layout file of an interface control, and when the player plays a natural-type documentary, the dynamic interface control script is executed to analyze the layout file, so as to generate a natural-style play control on a preset player interface for a user to operate.

As an example of the present invention, the player may load a dynamic interface control script and a layout file of an interface control, analyze the layout file by executing the dynamic interface control script in a process that the player plays a criminal investigation type tv series, analyze the layout file by executing the dynamic interface control script when the tv series plays content related to a professional term, and generate the interface control on a preset player interface. The interface control can display text and/or animation on the player interface to explain the professional terms.

As an example of the present invention, the player may load a dynamic interface control script and a layout file of an interface control, and in the process of playing a live webcast, the player may execute the dynamic interface control script, analyze the layout file, and generate the interface control on a player interface to display a dynamic pattern, such as a dancing heart-shaped pattern, a dynamic filter, or the like, or display a dynamic text.

As an example of the present invention, the player may load a dynamic interface control script and a layout file of an interface control, and in the process of playing multimedia content by the player, the player may execute the dynamic interface control script to analyze the layout file, and generate the interface control on the player interface to display current hotspot information, advertisement information, or other multimedia content recommendation information similar to the currently played multimedia content.

As an example of the present invention, the player may load a dynamic interface control script and a layout file of an interface control, determine, by executing the dynamic interface control script, a next multimedia content played by the player based on user attribute information corresponding to the player, a region where a user is located, a current network environment, and other information, analyze the layout file, and generate an interface control at a player interface, where the interface control is used to display profile information of the next multimedia content to be played by the player.

Step 103, acquiring an interaction event of the user acting on the interface control in the player interface, responding to the interaction event, and displaying the interaction content in the player interface.

In the embodiment of the present invention, the interface control may respond to an operation of a user, and the user may input an operation for the interface control through an input device connected to the electronic device, such as a keyboard, a mouse, a touch screen, a microphone, and the like. So that the player can obtain the interaction event of the user acting on the interface control in the player interface.

In the embodiment of the present invention, the operation on the interface control may be clicking, sliding, long-pressing, inputting a text, inputting a voice, and the like, which is not limited in this respect.

In the embodiment of the invention, the player can respond to the interaction event, the interactive content is displayed on the player interface, the content displayed by the player can be correspondingly changed along with the operation of the user, and more control functions are provided for the user.

In an embodiment of the present invention, the interactive content may include content visible by a user in an interface of a player. For example, interface controls in the player interface, multimedia content played by the player, etc.

As an example of the present invention, the interface control may be a voting interface, and the player may display a voting result interface to inform the user of a voting result in response to a voting option applied to the voting interface by the user.

As an example of the present invention, the interface control may be a heart-shaped icon, and the player may display a dynamic bubble pattern flying in the player interface in response to a click operation performed on the heart-shaped icon by a user to provide feedback of the click operation.

As an example of the present invention, the player interface may present a multimedia content recommendation related to the currently playing multimedia content through an interface control. The player may determine the interactive multimedia content selected by the user in response to an operation performed by the user on the multimedia content recommendation, and determine the interactive multimedia content as a new played multimedia content of the player in the player interface, thereby implementing selection of a next played multimedia content according to the user operation.

Referring to fig. 2, a flowchart illustrating steps of another embodiment of an interaction method of a player according to the present invention is shown, which may specifically include the following steps:

step 201, loading a dynamic interface control script and a layout file of an interface control; the dynamic interface control script and the layout file are issued by a preset server;

Step 202, analyzing the layout file by executing the dynamic interface control script to generate an interface control instance;

in the embodiment of the present invention, the interface control instance may be information for generating an interface control in a player interface. Specifically, the interface control instance may be Document Object Model (DOM) tree structure information.

In an embodiment of the present invention, the layout file may include configuration information of the interface control. The interface control may be a combination of graphical and/or textual elements. The configuration information may include layout position information of the interface control, information of a graphic element and/or a text element included in the interface control, layout position information of the graphic element and/or the text element, event node information corresponding to the interface control, and the like, which is not limited in this invention.

In the embodiment of the present invention, the player may analyze the layout file by executing the dynamic interface control script, obtain configuration information of the interface control in the layout file, and generate an interface control instance that can be understood by a graphic rendering engine.

And 203, loading the interface control instance, and displaying the interface control corresponding to the interface control instance on a preset player interface.

In the embodiment of the present invention, the player may load the interface control instance by executing the dynamic interface control script, and generate the interface control corresponding to the interface control instance in the player interface. Therefore, the interface control can be dynamically displayed through the dynamic interface control script and the layout file.

In an embodiment of the present invention, a virtual machine program is set in a host program of the player;

in this embodiment of the present invention, the host program may be an application program of the player itself. In the host program, a virtual machine program may be provided, so that programs belonging to different language environments may be run in the host program by embedding the virtual machine program.

In the embodiment of the present invention, the language environment of the host program may be a host environment, and the language environment of the virtual machine program may be a virtual machine environment. The host environment and the virtual machine environment are different language environments. As an example of the present invention, the virtual environment may be a lua language environment and the native environment may be an objective c language environment. The virtual environment and the native environment may also be other language environments. For example, the virtual environment may also be a Java language environment, a C # language environment, a C + + language environment, a Python language environment, a PHP language environment, a Ruby language environment, a Swift language environment, a Haskell language environment, and the like. The native environment may also be an ava language environment, a C # language environment, a C + + language environment, a Python language environment, a PHP language environment, a Ruby language environment, a Swift language environment, a Haskell language environment, and the like. The invention is not limited in this regard.

Preferably, when the virtual environment is a lua language environment, the virtual machine is a lua virtual machine, and the dynamic interface control script may be a lua script. Because the lua virtual machine has the characteristics of small size and high efficiency, the lua virtual machine can quickly complete the execution of the lua script under the condition of occupying smaller hardware resources. Therefore, the dynamic generation of the interface control can be realized under the condition of not obviously increasing the hardware resources occupied by the player, and the generation speed is high.

s11, executing the dynamic interface control script by the virtual machine program, analyzing the layout file, and generating an interface view instance and an event node instance;

in this embodiment of the present invention, the interface view instance may be information describing a layout position of the interface control in the player interface. The event node instance may be information describing an event to which the interface control may respond.

In the embodiment of the present invention, the dynamic interface control script and the layout file may be run in the virtual machine program. Therefore, the player can execute the dynamic interface control script by adopting the virtual machine program, analyze the layout file and generate an interface view instance and an event node instance.

In a specific implementation, the player may create an interface control object tree during the process of parsing the layout file by using the dynamic interface control script, and add a layout node corresponding to each interface control to a root directory of the interface control object tree. The layout node may be configured to set information indicating coordinates of the interface control on a player interface, a size of the interface control, a graphic element and/or a text element used by the interface control, and the like. Thus, an interface control object tree comprising at least one layout node of the interface control can be obtained, and the interface control object tree can be the interface view instance.

In the embodiment of the present invention, the event node instance may include a user operation event node and a data backhaul event node. The user operation event node may be configured to obtain an operation performed by a user on the interface control, and return data to the virtual machine program. The data backhaul node may be configured to obtain data in the host program and return the data to the virtual machine program.

S12, binding the event node instance to the interface view instance by adopting the virtual machine program, and generating an interface control instance adapted to the virtual machine environment;

in the embodiment of the present invention, the interface control corresponding to the event node instance may be determined by using the virtual machine program, and the event node is bound to the layout node of the corresponding interface control, so that the event node instance is bound to the interface view instance, and an interface control instance adapted to the virtual machine environment is generated.

As an example of the present invention, FIG. 3 is a diagram illustrating an example of an interface control according to the present invention. The interface control instance comprises a root directory, and the root directory can comprise a layout node 1, a layout node 2 and a layout node 3. Each layout node may correspond to an interface control. The layout node 1 may further include a layout sub-node 1, a layout sub-node 2, and a layout sub-node 3. The layout sub-node may be configured to indicate position information and size information of a graphic element and/or a text element included in the interface control. The layout sub-node 1 may include an event node 1, an event node 2, and an event node 3. The event node may be an event bound to a graphic element or a text element in the interface control. So that the graphical or textual element can be used to return data to the virtual machine program.

S13, converting the interface control instance adapted to the virtual machine environment into an interface control instance adapted to the host environment by adopting a preset environment conversion object;

in the embodiment of the present invention, an environment conversion object may be set. The environment conversion object may be used to provide an interactive interface between the host environment and the virtual machine environment, and may be used for language conversion between the host environment and the virtual machine environment.

In the embodiment of the present invention, the player may perform language conversion on the interface control instance by using a preset environment conversion object, and send the interface control instance from the virtual machine program to the host program, so as to convert the interface control instance adapted to the virtual machine environment into the interface control instance adapted to the host environment.

In a particular implementation, the virtual machine program may traverse the interface control instance adapted to the virtual machine environment. The interface control instance adapted to the virtual machine environment may include a layout node and an event node. If the layout node is traversed, the information in the layout node can be adopted, and the information of the layout node can be sent to the host program after being converted by the environment conversion object, so that the host program can obtain the converted information of the layout node. The host program may preset an interface control instance adapted to the host environment, and the host program may load the converted layout node information into the interface control instance adapted to the host environment. If the event node is traversed, the information of the event node can be transmitted to the host program after being converted by the environment conversion object, so that the host program can acquire the converted event node information. The host program may load the converted event node information into an interface control instance of the adapted host environment to bind an event that transmits data back to the virtual machine program. The virtual machine program can set a corresponding return response node in the dynamic interface control script, and trigger an event corresponding to the return response node when the host program returns corresponding data.

In a specific implementation, further, the interface control may adopt a Flexbox layout, and a main idea of the Flexbox layout is that elements may change in size to adapt to an available space, and when the available space becomes larger, the Flex elements will expand in size to fill the available space, and when the Flex elements exceed the available space, the Flex elements will automatically shrink. When the interface control is in a Flexbox layout, the interface control may have a parent layout node and several child layout nodes in the interface control instance of the virtual machine environment. The parent layout node may specify the location and size of the interface control in the player interface. The position and size may vary depending on the size of the player interface. The child layout node can correspondingly determine the position and the size of the graphic element and/or the text element in the player interface according to the position and the size of the interface control specified by the parent layout node in the player interface.

In the process of traversing the interface control instance adapted to the virtual machine environment, if the layout node is traversed by the Flexbox layout, the information of the layout node can be converted by the environment conversion object and then sent to the host program, so that the host program can obtain the converted layout node information. The host program may preset an interface control instance adapted to the host environment, and the host program may load the converted layout node information into the interface control instance adapted to the host environment. Thereafter, the host program may execute a parent layout node and a child layout node of the layout nodes, determine a position and a size of the interface control based on the size of the player interface, and further determine a position and a size of a graphic element and/or a text element of the interface control in the player interface. And then, binding the information of the position and the size of the graphic element and/or the text element in the interface control in the player interface to the interface control instance adapted to the host environment, so that the interface control instance can be loaded with the information of the position and the size of the interface control.

And S14, loading the interface control instance by using the host program, and displaying the interface control corresponding to the interface control instance on a preset player interface.

In the embodiment of the present invention, the player may adopt a preset graphics rendering engine to render the interface control instance, and display the interface control corresponding to the interface control instance on the interface of the player. So that the player can dynamically load the interface control without being limited by the version update of the player.

Step 204, acquiring an interaction event of the user acting on the interface control in the player interface, responding to the interaction event, and displaying the interaction content in the player interface.

In an embodiment of the present invention, the presenting interactive contents in the player interface in response to the interactive event includes:

s21, responding the interaction event by executing the dynamic interface control script;

in the embodiment of the present invention, after acquiring the interaction event, the player may respond to the interaction event by executing the dynamic interface control script. Specifically, after the host program of the player obtains the interaction event, the host program may trigger an event node corresponding to the interaction event, and return data to the virtual machine program to respond to the interaction event.

S22, determining script fragments corresponding to the interaction events in the dynamic interface control scripts;

in the embodiment of the present invention, after acquiring the returned data, the virtual machine program may search, in the dynamic interface control script, a returned response node corresponding to the returned data based on the returned data. The backhaul response node may have a corresponding script segment in the dynamic interface control script, so that the script segment corresponding to the interaction event may be determined.

S23, displaying the interactive interface content in the interactive content in the player interface by executing the script fragment, and/or determining the interactive multimedia content in the interactive content as the multimedia content newly played by the player.

In the embodiment of the present invention, the interactive content may include interactive interface content and interactive multimedia content. The interactive interface content may be an interface control corresponding to the interactive event. The interactive multimedia content may be multimedia content that can be played by the player.

In the embodiment of the present invention, the interactive interface content in the interactive content may be displayed in the player interface by executing the script segment corresponding to the feedback response node in the dynamic interface control script, and/or the interactive multimedia content in the interactive content is determined as the multimedia content newly played by the player.

In a specific implementation, the player may respond to the interaction event, determine a script segment corresponding to the interaction event in the dynamic interface control script, and execute the script segment, so as to display the interface control corresponding to the interaction event in the player interface, so as to implement dynamic change of the interface control.

As a specific example of the present invention, the interface control may be a voting interface, and the player may display a voting result interface by executing the dynamic interface control script in response to a voting option acted on the voting interface by the user, so as to inform the user of a voting result.

As a specific example of the present invention, the interface control may be a heart-shaped icon, and the player may respond to a click operation performed by a user on the heart-shaped icon, and display a dynamic bubble pattern dancing in the player interface by executing a script segment corresponding to the click operation in the dynamic interface control script, so as to provide feedback of the click operation.

As a specific example of the present invention, the player interface may display an interactive game through an interface control, and a user may dynamically change the interface control in the interactive game by clicking the interface control serving as a control button in the interactive game and executing a script segment corresponding to a user operation in the dynamic interface control script, so as to implement a game function. For example, the operation mode of the interface control as the control role is changed, so as to change the walking mode of the control role. As another example, an interface control that is a game view is changed to expose a dynamic game view.

In a specific implementation, the player may respond to the interaction event, determine a script segment corresponding to the interaction event in the dynamic interface control script, and execute the script segment, so that the interactive multimedia content is determined as the newly played multimedia content of the player in the player interface, thereby implementing changing the currently played content of the player through the interface control.

As a specific example of the present invention, the player interface may show a multimedia content recommendation related to a currently playing multimedia content through an interface control. The player can respond to the operation acted on the multimedia content recommendation by the user by executing the script segment corresponding to the user operation in the dynamic interface control script, and determine the interactive multimedia content selected by the user, and in the player interface, the interactive multimedia content is determined as the newly played multimedia content of the player, so that the next played multimedia content can be selected according to the user operation.

As a specific example of the present invention, the player interface may show summary information of current breaking hot news through an interface control. The player can respond to the operation of the user on the abstract information by executing the script segment corresponding to the user operation in the dynamic interface control script, the sudden hot news is used as the interactive multimedia content selected by the user, and the interactive multimedia content is determined as the newly played multimedia content of the player in the player interface, so that the sudden hot news can be displayed according to the user operation.

In a specific implementation, the player may respond to the interaction event, determine a script segment corresponding to the interaction event in the dynamic interface control script, and execute the script segment, so as to display the interaction interface content in the player interface, and determine the interaction multimedia content as a multimedia content newly played by the player.

As a specific example of the present invention, the player interface may display a selection interface through the interface control, where the selection interface may be related to the multimedia content currently played by the player. For example, the currently played multimedia content is that the lead actor is pursuing the role a, and the road has the switch a and the switch B, the selection interface may be used to provide the user with the switch a option and the switch B option. The player can respond to the operation of the user on the selection interface by executing the script segment corresponding to the user operation in the dynamic interface control script, determine the option selected by the user, take the multimedia content corresponding to the option selected by the user as the interactive multimedia content, and determine the interactive multimedia content as the newly played multimedia content of the player in the player interface. Meanwhile, the player can also display a selection result interface by executing the dynamic interface control script so as to inform a user of a selection result. For example, if the user currently selects the fork a, the multimedia content corresponding to the fork a is played by executing the dynamic interface control script, and the selection result interface is displayed on the player interface to inform the user that the currently played multimedia content is the content corresponding to the fork a option.

In the embodiment of the invention, on the basis that the player can dynamically load the interface control in the process of playing the multimedia content, the player can further respond to the interaction event acted on the player interface by the user, so that the interface control of the player interface and the multimedia content played by the player correspondingly change, thereby realizing the interaction between the player and the user, further enriching the control function of the player, and enabling the player to have more and more flexible multimedia content display modes.

According to the interface control generation method provided by the embodiment of the invention, the layout file is analyzed by executing the dynamic interface control script to generate an interface control instance, and the interface control is generated on a preset player interface by adopting the interface control instance. Therefore, the interface control can be generated through the dynamic interface control script and the layout file without updating the player. And the server issues the dynamic interface control script and the layout file, so that the updating of the interface control can be completed, and the flexibility of the interface control is improved. Meanwhile, the interaction event of the user acting on the player interface can be acquired through the interface control, the interaction content is correspondingly displayed, the interaction between the interface control and the user is realized, and more operable functions are provided for the user.

As a specific example of the present invention, the present invention provides another player interaction method, which is applied to the player 400 shown in fig. 4. The player 400 has an Objective-C host program 401, and a LUA virtual machine program 402 can be run in the Objective-C host program 401. The LUA virtual machine program 402 and the Objective-C host program 401 may interact with each other through an environment conversion object 403. The Objective-C host program 401 is further provided with a player control interface 404, and the player control interface 404 can perform data interaction with the server 410. The Objective-C host program 401 is further provided with a player private interface 405 and a player kernel 406. The player can call the player private interface 405 and the player kernel 406 through the player control interface 404 to control the player to play multimedia content.

The method comprises the following steps:

s31, the server 410 issues a dynamic interface control script and a layout file to the player control interface 404. The dynamic interface control script is an LUA script, and the layout file is an XML file.

S32, the player control interface 404 sends the dynamic interface control script to the LUA virtual machine program 402 through the environment conversion object 403;

s33, at a preset time point, the LUA virtual machine program 402 loads a dynamic interface control script and a layout file of the interface control. The preset time point may be a certain time point in the process of playing the multimedia content by the player. The time point may be set by sending a message to the LUA virtual machine program 402 in advance, or may be set by dynamically issuing a message through the server, so as to control the LUA virtual machine program 402 to load a dynamic interface control script and a layout file of the interface control when acquiring the message issued by the server, which is not limited in the present invention.

And S34, the LUA virtual machine program 402 analyzes the layout file by executing the dynamic interface control script and adopting a preset script base library to obtain an interface control instance adapted to the LUA virtual environment. The interface control instance adapted to the LUA virtual environment may be document object model tree structure information.

S35, the LUA virtual machine program 402 converts the interface control instance adapted to the LUA virtual environment into the interface control instance adapted to the Objective-C host environment by executing the dynamic interface control script.

In particular, the LUA virtual machine program 402 may traverse the interface control instance of the adapted LUA virtual environment. The interface control instance adapted to the LUA virtual environment may include a layout node and an event node.

If traversing to the layout node, the LUA virtual machine program 402 may adopt the information in the layout node, and then send the information of the layout node after being converted by the environment conversion object 403 to the Objective-C host program 401, so that the host program may obtain the converted layout node information. The host program may preset an interface control instance adapted to the host environment, and the host program may load the converted layout node information into the interface control instance adapted to the host environment.

Further, if the unit of the information in the layout node is different from the unit of the information in the Objective-C host program 401, unit conversion may be performed on the information in the layout node. For example, when the graphic elements and/or the text elements in the layout nodes are expressed in units of pixel (px), percentage (%), aspect ratio (vw/vh), and the host program is expressed in units of dp (density independent pixel) and sp (scalable pixel), the LUA virtual machine program 402 may perform unit conversion on the information in the layout nodes, convert the information in the layout nodes through the environment conversion object 403, and send the converted information to the object-C host program 401.

Further, the interface control can adopt a Flexbox layout, and the main idea of the Flexbox layout is that the elements can change in size to adapt to the available space, when the available space becomes larger, the Flex elements will expand in size to fill the available space, and when the Flex elements exceed the available space, the Flex elements will automatically shrink. When the interface control is in a Flexbox layout, the interface control may have a parent layout node and several child layout nodes in the interface control instance of the virtual machine environment. The parent layout node may specify the location and size of the interface control in the player interface. The position and size may vary depending on the size of the player interface. The child layout node can correspondingly determine the position and the size of the graphic element and/or the text element in the player interface according to the position and the size of the interface control specified by the parent layout node in the player interface.

In the process of traversing the interface control instance adapted to the virtual machine environment by the LUA virtual machine program 402 through the dynamic interface control script, if the layout node configured by the Flexbox is traversed, the information of the layout node may be transmitted to the Objective-C host program 401 after being converted by the environment conversion object 403, so that the Objective-C host program 401 may acquire the converted layout node information. The Objective-C host program 401 may preset an interface control instance adapted to the host environment, and the Objective-C host program 401 may load the converted layout node information into the interface control instance adapted to the host environment. Thereafter, the Objective-C host program 401 may execute a parent layout node and a child layout node in the layout nodes, determine the position and the size of the interface control based on the size of the player interface, and further determine the position and the size of a graphic element and/or a text element in the interface control in the player interface. And then, binding the information of the position and the size of the graphic element and/or the text element in the interface control in the player interface to the interface control instance adapted to the host environment, so that the interface control instance can be loaded with the information of the position and the size of the interface control.

If the event node is traversed, the information of the event node may be converted by the environment conversion object 403 and then sent to the Objective-C host program 401, so that the Objective-C host program 401 may obtain the converted event node information. The Objective-C host program 401 may load the converted event node information into an interface control instance of the adapted host environment to bind an event that transmits data back to the LUA virtual machine program 402. The LUA virtual machine program 402 may set a corresponding backhaul response node in the dynamic interface control script, and trigger an event corresponding to the backhaul response node when the Objective-C host program transmits corresponding data.

Further, the event node may include a user operation event node and a data backtransmission event node. The user operation event node may be configured to obtain an operation performed by a user on the interface control, and return data to the virtual machine program. The data backhaul node may be configured to obtain data in the Objective-C host program 401 and return the data to the LUA virtual machine program 402 via the environment conversion object 403.

S36, acquiring an interaction event of a user acting on the interface control in the player interface;

specifically, the user may input an operation for the interface control through an input device connected to the electronic device, such as a keyboard, a mouse, a touch screen, a microphone, and the like. So that the Objective-C host program 401 can obtain the interaction event of the user acting on the interface control in the player interface. Then, the Objective-C host program 401 may trigger an event node corresponding to the interaction event, and return data to the LUA virtual machine program 402 through the environment conversion object 403, so as to trigger a response node returned in the dynamic interface control script.

S37, responding the interaction event, and displaying the interaction content in the player interface.

Specifically, the LUA virtual machine program 402 may obtain data returned by the Objective-C host program 401 through the environment conversion object 403, the LUA virtual machine program 402, in response to the interaction event, executes a script fragment corresponding to the returned response node in the dynamic interface control script based on the returned data, and sends information of corresponding interaction interface content and/or information of interaction multimedia content to the Objective-C host program 401 through the environment conversion object 403. The information of the interactive interface content may be to send a new interface control instance to the Objective-C host program 401 through the environment conversion object 403 to change the content of the interface control displayed by the player interface. The interactive multimedia content information may be a play control message sent to the Objective-C host program 401 through the environment conversion object 403, and the play control message controls the player control interface 404 to call the player private interface 405 and the player kernel 406 to change the multimedia content played by the player.

The interactive multimedia content may be determined based on user attribute information corresponding to the player, a region where the user is located, a current network environment, and the like, or may be determined based on user operation.
