The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present disclosure will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present disclosure, and it is obvious that the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present disclosure, and not all of the embodiments. All other embodiments, which can be derived by one of ordinary skill in the art from the embodiments disclosed herein without making any creative effort, shall fall within the scope of protection of the present disclosure.

It should be noted that the playing method of the multimedia file provided by the embodiment of the present disclosure may be applied to a terminal device or a server. The terminal device includes, but is not limited to, a mobile phone, a tablet computer, a notebook computer, a palm computer, a vehicle-mounted terminal, and the like. The server may be one server, or may be a server cluster composed of a plurality of servers, which is not limited in this disclosure.

In one possible application scenario, the terminal device plays a non-highlight of the multimedia file at 1.5 times speed. And under the condition that the terminal equipment detects that the multimedia file has the wonderful section, playing the wonderful section at a normal speed in a playing time period corresponding to the wonderful section.

With reference to fig. 2 for the application scenario, as shown in fig. 2, fig. 2 is a flowchart illustrating a method for playing a multimedia file according to an exemplary embodiment. The method shown in fig. 2 may comprise the steps of:

and S100, under the condition that the terminal equipment determines that the multimedia file has the wonderful segment and the non-wonderful segment, the terminal equipment plays the non-wonderful segment at a first rate in the process of playing at least one non-wonderful segment.

Based on the example in the above scenario, the terminal device determines that the multimedia file has a highlight in the process of playing the non-highlight of the multimedia file at 1.5 times speed.

Specifically, the terminal device may determine that the multimedia file has the highlight within the playing time period corresponding to the label of the highlight when detecting that the multimedia file has the label of the highlight. The present disclosure does not limit the representation of the tags of the highlight, and the tags of the highlight exemplarily include a start tag and an end tag.

The sources of the tags of the highlights included in the multimedia file include the following cases:

in one possible case, the terminal device receives a label of a highlight corresponding to the multimedia file from the server. It is understood that the label of the highlight is sent to the terminal device by the server together in the multimedia file, or the server sends the label of the highlight corresponding to the multimedia file to the terminal device separately. The present disclosure is not limited thereto. Therefore, the server determines the wonderful section and generates a label of the wonderful section, and then sends the label to the terminal equipment, so that the processing pressure of the terminal equipment can be effectively reduced.

In another possible case, the terminal device determines a highlight in the multimedia file and generates a tag of the highlight in the multimedia file. Therefore, the computing pressure of the server is reduced, and meanwhile, the interaction between the terminal equipment and the server is saved.

The terminal device can determine the highlight in the multimedia file by the following implementation modes:

in one possible implementation manner, the terminal device determines a peak time period of the number of comment messages of the multimedia file; and under the condition that the comment message generated in the peak time period comprises a preset text, determining that the segment of the multimedia file in the peak time period is a highlight segment.

Specifically, the terminal device may count the number of comment messages of the multimedia file at each time, obtain a peak time period of the number of comment messages, then, the terminal device determines whether the comment messages generated in the peak time period include a preset text, and if so, determines that a segment of the multimedia file in the peak time period is a highlight segment.

Illustratively, the terminal device determines that the segment of the multimedia file in the peak time period is a highlight segment when the number of comment messages generated by the terminal device in the obtained peak time period includes the number of the comment messages of the texts such as click, 666, severity, show or cow, and the number accounts for more than 50% of the total number of the comment messages generated in the peak time period.

In another possible implementation manner, the terminal device determines that the segment including the preset behavior in the multimedia file is a highlight segment.

In one example, preset behaviors including killing, line-to-line or tower-pushing and the like are preset in the terminal device, and then the segment of the multimedia file including at least one preset behavior can be determined as a highlight segment.

In another example, the terminal device receives a time period sent by the server and during which the preset action occurs, and determines that the segment of the multimedia file during the time period is a highlight segment.

In another possible implementation, the terminal device determines a peak time period of the number of virtual items generating the multimedia file; and determining that the segment of the multimedia file in the peak time period is a highlight segment.

Specifically, the terminal device may count the number of virtual articles of the multimedia file at each time, obtain a peak time period for generating the number of virtual articles, and determine that a segment of the multimedia file in the peak time period is a highlight segment.

In another possible implementation manner, the terminal device counts a peak time period of the screen recording number of the multimedia file; and determining that the segment of the multimedia file in the peak time period is a highlight segment.

In another possible implementation manner, the terminal device counts a peak time period of the sharing number of the multimedia file, and determines that a segment of the multimedia file in the peak time period is a highlight segment.

It can be understood that the terminal device may also store the determination condition corresponding to the method for determining the highlight in the multimedia file, and make the highlight template. If any fragment in the multimedia file in the terminal equipment meets the determination condition preset in the template, the terminal equipment can determine that the fragment is a highlight fragment. Illustratively, the highlight template includes an image, a voice prompt, a comment message keyword, and the like, which occur at the highlight.

In another possible implementation, the tags of the highlights in the multimedia file in the terminal device are artificially labeled.

Optionally, after determining the highlight in the multimedia file, the terminal device may perform a merging operation on the determined highlight.

In one example, if at least two highlights have overlapping contents, that is, within a continuous time period, a highlight corresponding to a preset behavior is determined, and a corresponding highlight is determined according to a comment message, and the at least two highlights have overlapping portions in the playing time of the multimedia file, the at least two highlights are merged into a highlight, and only a start label corresponding to the earliest playing time and an end label corresponding to the latest playing time in the at least two highlights are reserved.

Optionally, S101: the terminal device determines whether the personalized playing function of the multimedia file is started, if so, executes S102, and if not, executes S103. The personalized playing function is used for playing the non-wonderful fragments at a first speed in the process of playing at least one non-wonderful fragment; during the playing of the at least one highlight, the highlight is played at a second rate, the second rate being less than the first rate.

The embodiment of the present disclosure does not limit the specific implementation of the opening of the personalized play function, and in one example, as shown in fig. 3, after the play mode button in the diagram a is selected, the normal play and personalized play buttons in the diagram B are skipped, and after the user clicks the personalized play button, the personalized play function is opened.

And S102, the terminal equipment plays the highlight at a second speed in the process of playing at least one highlight. The second rate is less than the first rate.

Based on the example in step S100, the terminal device plays the highlight of the multimedia file at the normal speed in the playing time period corresponding to the highlight.

It can be understood that the terminal device may also play the non-highlight at a normal speed, and play the highlight at a 0.5 × speed. The present disclosure is not limited thereto.

S103, the terminal equipment plays at least one highlight segment at a first speed in the process of playing the highlight segment.

It is understood that S101 in the above embodiment is an optional step. When S101 is not executed, different playing rates corresponding to different types of clips of the multimedia file are preset in an application program for displaying the multimedia file in the terminal device, and after S100 is executed, S102 is executed, where the second rate is the preset playing rate.

In the embodiment of the disclosure, the terminal device may play the non-highlight segment at a faster play rate relative to the play rate of the highlight segment, and play the highlight segment at a slower play rate relative to the play rate of the non-highlight segment, so that a user does not miss the highlight segment in the process of watching a multimedia file, and can watch details of the highlight segment more clearly, thereby improving user experience.

In another possible application scenario, in the process that the terminal device plays the multimedia file at a normal speed, the terminal device detects that the multimedia file has a non-wonderful segment. And when the terminal equipment plays the non-wonderful section to the playing time period corresponding to the non-wonderful section, the terminal equipment plays the non-wonderful section at a playing speed different from the normal speed.

Fig. 4 is a flowchart illustrating another method for playing a multimedia file according to an exemplary embodiment, in combination with the application scenario. The method shown in fig. 4 may comprise the steps of:

s200: the terminal equipment detects that the multimedia file has non-wonderful segments in the process of playing the wonderful segments of the multimedia file at a first rate.

It will be appreciated that the non-highlight segments of the multimedia file may be segments marked with tags other than the highlight segments or segments not marked with any tags. The present disclosure is not limited thereto.

In one example, assuming that the multimedia file is marked with a tag of a highlight, the terminal device detects a segment without the tag during playing the highlight of the multimedia file at a normal speed to determine that the multimedia file has a non-highlight.

In another example, assuming that a non-highlight label is marked in the multimedia file, the terminal device detects the non-highlight label during playing the highlight of the multimedia file at a normal speed, and thus it can be determined that the non-highlight exists in the multimedia file within the playing time period corresponding to the non-highlight label.

In another example, assuming that not only the tags of the non-highlight segments but also the tags of the highlight segments are marked in the multimedia file, the terminal device detects the tags of the non-highlight segments during the process of playing the multimedia file at the normal speed, and the terminal device may determine that the non-highlight segments exist in the multimedia file within the playing time period corresponding to the tags of the non-highlight segments.

For the source of the tags of the non-highlight segments and/or the source of the tags of the highlight segments, reference is made to the description in S100 above, and details are not repeated.

S201: and the terminal equipment plays the non-wonderful fragments at a second speed in the playing time period corresponding to the non-wonderful fragments. The second rate is greater than the first rate.

In a possible implementation manner, under the condition that the terminal device plays the multimedia file to the playing time period corresponding to the non-highlight segment, first prompt information is displayed on a display page of the non-highlight segment of the multimedia file, and the first prompt information is used for prompting selection of a speed for playing the non-highlight segment. And the terminal equipment responds to the triggering operation of the information corresponding to the second speed in the first prompt information and plays the non-wonderful segment at the second speed.

In one example, as shown in fig. 5A, the terminal device displays "1.5X 2 X2.5X1X" on the presentation page of the multimedia file. In the case where the user selects "1.5X", the terminal device plays the non-highlight reel at 1.5 times speed in response to the user-triggered accelerated play operation instruction. Subsequently, the terminal device can play the non-wonderful segment at 1.5 times speed under the condition of playing the non-wonderful segment of the same type of the non-wonderful segment, and play the wonderful segment at normal speed under the condition of playing the wonderful segment until the multimedia file is played.

It should be noted that, in the case where the user selects "1X", or in the case where the user does not perform any operation within 5 seconds, the terminal device may continue to play the non-highlight at the current rate. And no prompt message is displayed on the non-wonderful segment display page.

In another possible implementation manner, when the terminal device plays the multimedia file to the playing time period corresponding to the non-highlight, second prompt information is displayed on the display page of the non-highlight of the multimedia file, and the second prompt information is used for prompting whether to skip the display of the non-highlight and displaying the next highlight adjacent to the non-highlight. The terminal equipment responds to the triggering operation of the second prompt message and acquires the starting time of the next highlight adjacent to the non-highlight; the highlight is a segment except the non-highlight in the multimedia file; the terminal device plays the highlight segment from the start time of the highlight segment at a first rate.

In one example, as shown in fig. 5B, the terminal device displays "skip non-highlight" on the presentation page of the non-highlight. And under the condition that the user selects 'yes', the terminal equipment responds to the triggering operation of the prompt message, acquires the starting time of the next highlight adjacent to the non-highlight, and plays the highlight from the starting time of the highlight.

In another possible implementation manner, in the process of playing the non-highlight segments, the terminal device displays a fast forward operation control on a display page of the non-highlight segments of the multimedia file, where the fast forward operation control is used for fast forwarding the display of the non-highlight segments, and the terminal device responds to a trigger operation on the fast forward operation control to play the non-highlight segments at the second rate.

It can be understood that the display modes of the possible prompt messages or the operation controls may be combined together and displayed on the display page of the non-highlight segment, and the terminal device selects different rates to play the non-highlight segment or skips the non-highlight segment to directly play a next highlight segment in response to different selection operations of the user.

In the embodiment of the disclosure, in the process of displaying a multimedia file, when a terminal device plays a non-highlight segment, a prompt message or a fast-forward operation control is displayed on a display page of the multimedia file, where the prompt message or the fast-forward operation control is used to prompt a user to perform a corresponding operation (such as skipping the non-highlight segment or selecting a double-speed play of the non-highlight segment as described above), and the terminal device responds to a trigger operation of the user on the corresponding prompt message or fast-forward operation control to play the non-highlight segment at a double-speed or skip the non-highlight segment to play a next highlight segment adjacent to the non-highlight segment. Therefore, the user can play different types of clips at different rates as required in the process of watching the multimedia file so as to obtain better user experience.

It should be noted that, in another method for playing a multimedia file, in a process that a terminal device can play the multimedia file at a normal speed, the terminal device detects that a highlight exists in the multimedia file, and in a case that the terminal device plays the highlight, the terminal device plays the highlight at a play speed slower than the normal speed.

In one possible implementation, the terminal device may play the highlight at a preset play rate slower than the normal rate. In another possible implementation manner, the terminal device displays the prompt message on the display page of the highlight. The prompt message is used to prompt the user to select a playback rate (e.g., 0.5 times the normal rate) that is slower than the normal rate for playing the highlight. And the terminal equipment responds to the triggering operation of the prompt message and plays the highlight segments in the multimedia file at the selected playing speed.

As shown in fig. 6, fig. 6 is a flowchart illustrating another method for playing a multimedia file according to an exemplary embodiment. The method shown in fig. 6 may include the steps of:

s300: and the terminal equipment sends a request message to the server, wherein the request message is used for acquiring the label of the highlight corresponding to the multimedia file.

The present disclosure does not limit the timing when the terminal device sends the request message to the server, and in one example, the terminal device requests the server for a tag of a highlight of the multimedia file when detecting a display operation of the multimedia file. In one possible case, the terminal device requests the multimedia resource and simultaneously requests the label of the highlight of the multimedia file from the server, and in another possible case, the terminal device pre-stores the multimedia file and only requests the label of the highlight of the multimedia file from the server.

S301: the server determines the wonderful section in the multimedia file and generates a label of the wonderful section corresponding to the multimedia file.

Specifically, the server determines the implementation manner of the highlight in the multimedia file, and refer to the implementation manner of the highlight in the multimedia file determined by the terminal device in the foregoing embodiment, which is not described again.

S302: and the server sends the label of the wonderful segment corresponding to the multimedia file to the terminal equipment, wherein the label of the wonderful segment is used for indicating that the multimedia file has the wonderful segment.

S303: and the terminal equipment acquires the label of the wonderful section corresponding to the multimedia file in the process of playing the multimedia file at the first speed, and then determines that the wonderful section exists in the multimedia file.

S304: and the terminal equipment plays the highlight at a second speed in the playing time period corresponding to the highlight of the multimedia file. The second rate is less than the first rate.

In one possible implementation, the terminal device plays the highlight at a preset second rate.

In another possible implementation manner, when the terminal device plays the multimedia file to the playing time period corresponding to the highlight, first prompt information is displayed on a display page of the highlight of the multimedia file, and the first prompt information is used for prompting to select a speed for playing the non-highlight. And the terminal equipment responds to the triggering operation of the information corresponding to the second speed in the first prompt information and plays the non-wonderful segment at the second speed.

In one example, the terminal device displays "0.3X 0.5X" on the presentation page of the multimedia file. In the case where the user selects "0.5X", the terminal device plays the highlight at 0.5 times speed. Subsequently, the terminal device can play the highlight segment at 0.5 times speed under the condition of playing the highlight segment of the same type, and play the non-highlight segment at normal speed under the condition of playing the non-highlight segment until the multimedia file is played.

It should be noted that, in the case where the user selects "1X", or in the case where the user does not perform any operation within 5 seconds, the terminal device may continue to play the highlight at the current rate. And no prompt message is displayed on the display page of the highlight segment.

In the embodiment of the disclosure, in the process of playing the multimedia file at the first rate, the terminal device determines that the multimedia file has a highlight, and plays the highlight at a play speed slower than that of a non-highlight in a play time period corresponding to the highlight of the multimedia file, so as to meet the watching requirement of a user on the highlight, thereby improving the user experience.
