fourthly, the display content comprises at least two segments with locked display permissions, and after the ith locked segment is played, an unlocking panel is displayed to indicate to unlock the subsequent (i + 1) th locked segment, wherein i is a positive integer, and the value of i is less than or equal to the total number of the locked segments.

The above manner of displaying the unlocking panel is only an illustrative example, and the unlocking panel may also be displayed under other trigger conditions, which is not limited in the embodiment of the present application.

In some embodiments, the unlock segment prompt may be implemented within the unlock control, i.e., the unlock control itself displays the unlock segment prompt; alternatively, the unlocking control and unlocking fragment prompt are implemented as two separate display elements.

When the unlocking segment prompt is realized in the unlocking control, the unlocking control is displayed as the unlocking segment prompt, such as: a line of text "see advertisement unlock for 20 minutes" that can be touched is displayed in the unlock panel, and then performing touch operation on the text can be implemented as a trigger operation for unlocking the content segment. Optionally, the unlocking control further includes a touch-controllable unlocking icon, that is, the unlocking icon and the unlocking fragment prompt form an interface representation of the unlocking control, and touch operation is performed on the unlocking fragment prompt or touch operation is performed on the unlocking icon, which can be implemented as trigger operation for unlocking the content fragment.

When the unlocking control and the unlocking segment prompt are realized as two independent display elements, the unlocking control realizes a touch unlocking icon, the unlocking segment prompt is realized as a text display element in the unlocking panel, and the unlocking segment prompt is displayed on the peripheral side of the unlocking icon, if: an unlock segment prompt is displayed to the right of the unlock icon. The touch operation on the unlocking icon can be realized as a trigger operation for unlocking the content segment. The unlocking segment is prompted to be a touch-enabled display element (that is, a touch operation performed on the text display element can be implemented as a trigger operation for unlocking the content segment), or a non-touch-enabled display element.

In this embodiment, it is described by taking an example that the unlocking section prompt is implemented in the unlocking control, optionally, the unlocking control includes an unlocking icon and an unlocking section prompt, as shown in fig. 4, the unlocking panel 400 includes an unlocking control 410, where the unlocking control 410 includes an unlocking icon 411 and an unlocking section prompt 412. When the user touches the unlock icon 411 or the unlock-segment prompt 412 (e.g., clicking, double-clicking, sliding, gravity pressing, long-pressing, etc. on the unlock-segment prompt 412), both implemented as a touch to the unlock control 410, in some embodiments, the function of the unlock icon 411 may be integrated on the unlock-segment prompt 412. Wherein the unlock segment prompt 412 indicates that the segment length of the content segment of the presentation unlocked based on the unlock control 410 is 20 minutes.

The segment length is used to indicate the length or number of unlocked content segments in the presentation content. Such as: when the display content is realized as video content, the segment length is the segment duration; when the display content is realized as the content of the electronic book, the length of the segment is realized as the number of chapters, the number of pages of the electronic book, the number of paragraphs of the electronic book and the like; when the display content is realized as news content, the segment length is realized as the number of news, or the number of dates corresponding to the news, or the length of the news content, which is not limited in the embodiment of the present application.

In some embodiments, the content segment is a preset designated segment corresponding to the unlocking process; or, the content segment is a self-defined segment set by the user according to the segment length; alternatively, the content segments are randomly determined segments in the application.

Optionally, when the content segment is a preset designated segment, that is, the unlocked content segment is a default segment, illustratively, when the user opens the video a for unlocking for the first time, the video segment unlocked for the first time defaults to a segment starting from 00:00 of the progress bar.

Step 302, receiving a trigger operation for unlocking a video clip.

In some embodiments, the unlocking panel includes an unlocking control, and the triggering operation received on the unlocking control is used as the triggering operation for unlocking the video clip.

The trigger operation on the unlocking control comprises at least one of the following operation forms:

firstly, receiving touch control (such as clicking, double clicking, sliding, gravity pressing, long pressing and other operations on an unlocking control) operation on the unlocking control, and taking the touch control operation as a trigger operation on the unlocking control;

and secondly, receiving an input operation of the external output equipment, wherein the input operation corresponds to the unlocking control, and then taking the input operation as a trigger operation of the unlocking control.

The trigger operation is used for instructing the user to select to unlock the content segments in the display content in a mode of browsing the recommended content.

And 303, displaying a recommended content browsing interface based on the triggering operation, wherein the recommended content browsing interface comprises unlocking timing.

The unlocking timing is used for indicating the timing duration that the recommended content needs to be browsed when the content segment of the displayed content is unlocked. In some embodiments, the timing duration of the unlock content segment and the display duration of the recommended content are two independent durations, illustratively, the recommended content is implemented as an incentive advertisement video, the total duration of the incentive advertisement video is 60 seconds, and the timing duration of the unlock content segment is 10 seconds in total, that is, when the incentive advertisement video is played in the recommended content browsing interface, the recommendation timing of the incentive advertisement video and the unlock timing of the content segment are performed at the same time, when the unlock timing of the content segment is ended and the recommendation timing of the incentive advertisement video is not ended, the incentive advertisement video continues to be played, and at this time, the content segment is unlocked.

In some embodiments, in response to the display duration of the recommended content reaching the required duration, a cover layer is displayed on the recommended content browsing interface, the cover layer includes an identifier of the recommended content and a detail control, and the detail control is used for jumping to a detail interface corresponding to the recommended content. In some embodiments, when the recommended content is displayed in the recommended content browsing interface, effect conversion of out-linking, small programs and application downloading can be realized at a specified position or any position of the recommended content and the detail control in the cover layer. Optionally, the time duration of the unlocking content segment is less than or equal to the display duration of the recommended content.

In some embodiments, the unlocked content segment is displayed in response to the display duration of the recommended content reaching a desired duration.

In some embodiments, the unlock timer is also displayed in the form of a countdown, that is, an unlock countdown is included in the recommended content browsing interface, and the unlock countdown is used for indicating a countdown time length for which the recommended content needs to be browsed to unlock the content segment. Illustratively, the time length of browsing recommended content required by unlocking a content segment is 10 seconds, when a recommended content browsing interface is displayed based on a trigger operation and the recommended content is displayed, the unlocking countdown is displayed from 10 seconds, and the countdown time length of the unlocking countdown is reduced from second to second as the system time advances.

In some embodiments, since the unlock timing is used to indicate a duration of unlocking the content segment, and the recommended content further corresponds to a display duration, when the unlock timing is over, the content segment in the display content is unlocked; and when the display duration of the recommended content reaches the required duration, the complete content of the displayed content is unlocked. Or when the unlocking timing is finished, the first content segment in the display content is unlocked; and when the display duration of the recommended content reaches the required duration, unlocking a second content segment in the display content, wherein the segment length of the second content segment is greater than that of the first content segment. In some embodiments, the first piece of content is contained within the second piece of content.

Illustratively, the duration of the incentive advertisement is 60 seconds, and the unlocking duration required for unlocking the video clip a (clip duration is 20 minutes) is 10 seconds, so that the video clip a is unlocked when the duration of the incentive advertisement viewed by the user reaches 10 seconds, and the video clip B is unlocked when the duration of the incentive advertisement viewed by the user reaches 60 seconds (clip duration is 40 minutes).

In some embodiments, the recommended content browsing interface is jumped from the unlock panel to display, such as: the unlocking panel is a panel area which is displayed on the playing interface in a superposed mode, and the recommended content browsing interface is an independent interface which is displayed in a skipping mode from the playing interface.

And step 304, responding to the end of the unlocking timing, and displaying the content segment of the display content.

In some embodiments, when the unlocking timer is over, the content segment in the display content is unlocked, so that the user can select to view the content segment, namely, the terminal displays the content segment. Taking video as an example, the presentation content includes video content, and the content segments include video segments in the video content. Displaying the part which is not unlocked in the first performance state and displaying the part of the video clip which is unlocked in the second performance state on the progress bar corresponding to the video content, thereby playing the video clip in the video content.

In some embodiments, the presentation content includes at least one of video content and e-book content, and fig. 7 is a flowchart of a method for unlocking the presentation content according to another exemplary embodiment of the present application, which is exemplified by applying the method to a terminal, as shown in fig. 7, and the method includes:

step 701, displaying an unlocking panel.

The unlocking panel is used for indicating that the content segment of the display content is unlocked in a mode of browsing the recommended content, and the unlocking panel is also used for indicating the segment length of the unlocked content segment of the display content.

In some embodiments, an unlocking control is included in the unlocking panel, and the unlocking control is used for indicating that the content segment of the display content is unlocked in a mode of browsing the recommended content; the unlocking control corresponds to an unlocking fragment prompt, and the unlocking fragment prompt is used for indicating the fragment length of the content fragment of the display content unlocked based on the unlocking control.

The clip length is used to indicate the length or number of unlocked clip content in the presentation content. Such as: when the display content is realized as video content, the segment length is the segment duration; when the display content is realized as the content of the electronic book, the length of the segment is realized as the number of chapters, the number of pages of the electronic book, the number of paragraphs of the electronic book and the like; when the presentation content is implemented as news content, the segment length is implemented as news number, or date number corresponding to news, or news content length, and the like, which is not limited in the embodiment of the present application.

Step 702, receiving a trigger operation for unlocking a video clip.

And 703, displaying a recommended content browsing interface based on the trigger operation, wherein the recommended content browsing interface comprises unlocking timing.

The unlocking time is used for indicating the time duration of the recommended content needing to be browsed when the content segment is unlocked. In some embodiments, the timing duration of the unlocking content segment and the display duration of the recommended content are two independent durations.

And step 704, in response to the end of the unlocking timing, displaying the part which is not unlocked in the first expression state and displaying the unlocked video clip part in the second expression state on the progress bar corresponding to the video content.

In the related art, the progress bar includes the following elements: default state, buffered, played. And the drawing strategy of the element is 'simple superposition' of layers. The opacity and the priority are strongly coupled, when an element which does not conform to the principle of 'high priority-high opacity' appears, the color error of the whole rendering effect can be caused, for example, in the scene of the motivational advertisement, the priority of the element of 'locked interval' is higher than that of 'played interval', and the opacity is lower than that of 'played interval'.

In this embodiment, a strategy of segment rendering is proposed, that is, a segment of interval allows only one element to be rendered, so as to ensure that the rendering of the element is not interfered, thereby removing the coupling relationship between priority and opacity. Due to the independent drawing principle of the elements, the method is not limited by transparency.

The overall steps of the scheme are divided into 2 steps: 1. calculating drawing coordinates of each element according to requirements; 2. and uniformly drawing the elements according to the coordinates. Prior to implementation of the solution, the elements need to be prioritized according to design requirements. And drawing the elements with high priority preferentially, and if the elements with high priority exist in a section of interval, drawing the elements with low priority without drawing. Mutually exclusive with the priority elements.

Elements are managed by using a variable array, the array sequence, namely the sequence of X coordinates from small to large, and the elements are drawn one by one according to the sequence when finally drawn.

Referring to fig. 8, schematically, a drawing process diagram of a progress bar provided in an exemplary embodiment of the present application is shown, and as shown in fig. 8, the process includes: step 801, initialization. I.e. adjusting the full coordinate margin, initializing an element covering the full coordinate, the element type being blank, and the array size being 1. And step 802, determining element drawing coordinates according to the information. I.e., the element coverage area for which the P0 priority is calculated. The existing blank element is split into an interval expected to be drawn and a blank interval through a splitting function, and the element of the interval expected to be drawn is a corresponding element type, such as a locking interval. The blank interval is not processed for subsequent low-priority elements to process. Step 803, the elements of all priorities are processed step by step, following the loop of step 802. At step 804, the unprocessed span is treated as a default span and is populated with the lowest priority element type. At step 805, all intervals of the progress bar are filled with valid elements. And finally, traversing the element array, and drawing the graph to finish the drawing of the progress bar. A progress bar 810 is obtained.

In some embodiments, the unlocking section is used for indicating the section duration of the video section, the video section comprises at least two sub-sections, before the part which is not unlocked is displayed in the first performance state, a sub-section setting operation is received on a progress bar corresponding to the video content, and the distribution condition of the at least two sub-sections on the progress bar is determined based on the setting operation and the section duration.

In some embodiments, the setting process of the sub-segment is implemented before the triggering operation of the unlocking control is received, or after the recommended content is browsed.

Setting at least two sub-segments in the video content, and receiving a starting position setting operation on a progress bar corresponding to the video content for an ith sub-segment, wherein i is a positive integer, so that the starting time of the ith sub-segment is determined based on the starting position setting operation; and receiving an ending position setting operation in a limiting range of the segment time length, wherein the segment time length is used for limiting the total time length of at least two sub-segments, and determining the ending time of the ith sub-segment based on the ending position setting operation.

Illustratively, the segment duration is 20 minutes, the user sets the starting time (1: 20: 00) and the ending time (1:33:00) of a first sub-segment to obtain the duration of the first sub-segment as 13 minutes, then sets the starting time (2:11:00) and the ending time (2:13:00) of a second sub-segment to obtain 2 minutes of the duration of the second sub-segment, and then sets the starting time (2:22:00) of a third sub-segment, and the ending time of the third sub-segment needs to be controlled within (2:27:00) or (2:27:00) due to the limitation of the segment duration.

Step 705, playing a video clip in the video content.

In some embodiments, for the case that at least two sub-segments are included in the video segment, the sub-segments are played one by one.

In some embodiments, when the unlocking panel is displayed, the terminal pulls the bottom materials from the server, so as to avoid the failure of pulling the advertisement order. Referring to fig. 9, which schematically illustrates a material pulling process provided in an exemplary embodiment of the present application, as shown in fig. 9, first, the terminal enters a detail page 901, that is, the above-mentioned unlocking panel, so as to request SSP, pull the bibliographic order material 902, and store the bibliographic order material. After the terminal clicks the incentive advertisement 903, the real-time order materials are pulled 904, when the order pulling fails, the pocket bottom order materials are obtained for loading, and when the order pulling succeeds, the order materials are downloaded from the real-time material pool. When the terminal plays the incentive advertisement, the downloading process and the playing process are executed at the same time, namely, the downloading process and the playing process are asynchronously realized.

That is, in the process shown in fig. 9 above, first, the incentive advertisement is preloaded with pocket bottom order and pocket bottom video material and periodically with new pocket bottom order material assets. When the incentive advertisement order pulling fails, the pocket bottom order and the materials can be loaded, and the advertisement playing success rate is improved. Secondly, the incentive advertisement maintains a material downloading pool, so that the caching and multiplexing of the material can be realized, and if the material returned by the background is locally downloaded, the material is directly played, and the experience is smooth. Meanwhile, in order to effectively reduce the memory occupation of the material pool and reduce invalid material searching, an overdue material cleaning strategy and a Least Recently Used (LRU) memory cleaning two-dimensional strategy are added to the materials. 1. Directly cleaning materials with expired validity; 2. when the memory of the material pool exceeds the set value, the materials are sorted in a queue according to the used date, and the materials which are not used for the longest time are preferentially cleaned until the memory is smaller than the set value. In addition, aiming at the situations that no material is cached and real-time downloading is needed, the material is downloaded and played simultaneously, and double-pipeline parallelism of material downloading and video playing is realized.

In some embodiments, during the download of the incentive advertisement, the content segments of the presentation content (i.e., video content) are preloaded simultaneously.

Optionally, since the incentive advertisement is used for unlocking the display content in segments, in the related art, in consideration of security and anti-cheating, each segment needs to be unlocked separately, and only after the advertisement is viewed, the background unlocks the playing permission of the corresponding segment after the unlocking permission is obtained. Therefore, the player resource needs to be refreshed after each successful unlocking, so that the video is really unlocked.

In the embodiment of the application, a video authentication mechanism is still reserved for safety, but the whole episode is unlocked, that is, the user only needs to authenticate when entering the display content for the first time; aiming at the problem of time consumption of request, when unlocking for the second time (the unlocked segment exists), a state management mechanism in the program is adopted, and authentication does not need to be requested again. And when the video is unlocked for the first time, the background server returns the complete video playing authority, which is called as pre-unlocking. And after the subsequent segment is unlocked, unlocking directly according to the response of successful unlocking, which is called as 'complementary unlocking'.

Referring to fig. 10, schematically, a flowchart of a process of pre-unlocking and post-unlocking according to an exemplary embodiment of the present application is shown, as shown in fig. 10, where the process includes: and step 1001, the terminal enters a video detail interface. Step 1002, sending an authentication request to a server, and acquiring an unlocking state and a video playing permission. And step 1003, judging whether the video clip is unlocked. And step 1004, when the video clip is unlocked, the video clip is watched. Step 1005, requesting to unlock the next section or the section is overdue. Step 1006, after viewing the advertisement, sends an unlock request.

In response to the end of the unlocking timing, in step 706, the part which is not unlocked is displayed in the third representation state and the unlocked chapter section part is displayed in the fourth representation state on the directory page corresponding to the e-book content.

In some embodiments, the unlock segment prompt is to indicate a number of chapters of a chapter segment, the chapter segment including at least one chapter. Firstly, receiving chapter selection operation on a catalogue page corresponding to the content of the electronic book, and determining the distribution condition of at least one chapter on the catalogue page based on the chapter selection operation and the number of chapters.

And step 707, displaying the chapter sections in the e-book content.

In some embodiments, the unlocking of the content segments corresponds to an unlocking validity period. And responding to the end of the unlocking timing, unlocking the content segment, and displaying validity period prompt information on the display content of the content segment, wherein the validity period prompt information is used for indicating the unlocking validity period of the content segment. And in response to the validity period prompt message reaching the display duration, canceling the display of the validity period prompt message and displaying the content segment.

Referring to fig. 11, which is a schematic diagram of an unlock validity period prompt interface provided in an exemplary embodiment of the present application, as shown in fig. 11, a validity period prompt message 1110 is displayed in a display interface 1100 of the clip content, and the content in the validity period prompt message 1110 is "unlocked for 20 minutes, please watch before 16:59 today".

In summary, according to the unlocking method for the displayed content provided by this embodiment, the unlocking control is displayed in the unlocking panel, so that the user is prompted to unlock the content segments in a manner of browsing the recommended content, the user can view part or all of the segments in the displayed content in a manner of unlocking the content segments, and if the content of the currently displayed content is not the content desired by the user, the content segments of other displayed contents can be unlocked and previewed, so that the man-machine interaction efficiency of the user when determining the displayed content is improved, and the problems of low display efficiency and large data interaction amount between the terminal and the server caused by the need of watching a complete patch advertisement when selecting the displayed content are avoided.

According to the method provided by the embodiment, when at least two sub-segments exist for the video content, the user can select the at least two sub-segments, so that the video content in the time period required to be checked by the user is unlocked, the man-machine interaction efficiency is improved, and the playing efficiency of the video content is improved.

In some embodiments, a closing control is further included in the recommended content browsing interface, and the closing control is used for indicating that the display of the recommended content is stopped. Fig. 12 is a flowchart of a method for unlocking display content according to another exemplary embodiment of the present application, which is described by taking the method as an example and applied to a terminal, and as shown in fig. 12, the method includes:

step 1201, displaying an unlocking panel.

The segment length is used to indicate the length or the number of the unlocked segment content in the presentation content. Such as: when the display content is realized as video content, the segment length is the segment duration; when the display content is realized as the content of the electronic book, the length of the segment is realized as the number of chapters, the number of pages of the electronic book, the number of paragraphs of the electronic book and the like; when the display content is realized as news content, the segment length is realized as the number of news, or the number of dates corresponding to the news, or the length of the news content, which is not limited in the embodiment of the present application.

Step 1202, receiving a trigger operation for unlocking a video clip.

Step 1203, displaying a recommended content browsing interface based on the triggering operation, wherein the recommended content browsing interface includes unlocking timing.

And step 1204, receiving a selection operation on the closing control.

And indicating that the user needs to close the browsing of the recommended content based on the selection operation of the closing control.

Step 1205, an unlocking state corresponding to the timing duration of the unlocking timing is determined based on the selection operation.

The content segment unlocking method comprises the following steps that an unlocking state comprises any one of an unlocking state and a locking state, wherein the unlocking state indicates that the timing duration of recommended content reaches the required duration, and the content segment is successfully unlocked; and the locking state indicates that the timing duration of the recommended content does not reach the required duration, and the unlocking of the content segment is unsuccessful.

In step 1206, in response to the timing duration indicating that the content segment is in the unlocked state, the content segment of the display content is displayed.

Step 1207, responding to the timing duration indicating that the content segment is in the locked state, and displaying the prompt information, the prompt confirmation control and the prompt cancellation control.

The prompting information is used for prompting the unlocking condition of the content fragment, the prompting confirmation control is used for indicating the user to confirm to quit browsing the recommended content, and the prompting cancellation control is used for indicating the user to continue browsing the recommended content.

And step 1208, in response to receiving the selection operation of the prompt cancellation control, continuing unlocking timing and resuming to display the recommended content.

Step 1209, in response to receiving the selection operation of the prompt confirmation control, resuming displaying the unlock panel.

Illustratively, as shown in fig. 13, when the recommended content is displayed in the recommended content browsing interface 1300, the unlocking time of the recommended content is counted down to 5 seconds, and the unlocking time is 6 seconds, when the terminal receives the selection operation on the closing control 1310, a prompt message 1320, a prompt confirmation control 1321 and a prompt cancellation control 1322 are displayed, where the prompt message 1320 includes a content "at least 6 seconds are required to be viewed to unlock the content". When a selection operation on the prompt cancel control 1322 is received, the unlock timing is continued, and the display of the recommended content is resumed. When a selection operation on the prompt confirmation control 1321 is received, the unlock panel 1330 is restored to be displayed.

According to the method provided by the embodiment, when the user needs to close and display the recommended content, the unlocking timing of the recommended content is confirmed firstly, and interaction is performed respectively aiming at the condition that the unlocking timing indication is in the unlocking state and the condition that the unlocking timing indication is in the locking state, so that the interaction efficiency and the accuracy are improved.

Schematically, fig. 14 is a general schematic diagram of an unlocking process of a video clip according to an exemplary embodiment of the present application, as shown in fig. 14, the unlocking process includes:

step 1401, requesting member authority authentication.

The member authority authentication refers to authenticating the authority of an account logged in the terminal, and judging whether the account belongs to a specified account with a video watching authority, if so, the member authority authentication refers to authenticating the authority of the account logged in the terminal, and if not, the member authority authentication refers to authenticating the authority of the account with the video watching authority: when the account number belongs to the member account number, the member account number has the video watching authority and passes the authentication; and when the account belongs to the common account, the common account does not have video watching permission.

At step 1402, an incentive advertisement portal is presented.

In some embodiments, the display triggers an unlock interface that activates the advertisement when the account belongs to a common account.

Step 1403, after the user clicks, the user requests the SSP to pull the order.

When the user selects to play the incentive advertisement, an advertisement playing order is generated as an exposure event of the advertisement.

Step 1404, incentivize advertisement play.

When the order is pulled, video materials are obtained from the material pool to be played based on the success or failure of pulling of the order, when the pulling is successful, the video materials are obtained from the real-time material pool, and when the pulling is failed, the video materials are obtained from the bottom material pool.

Step 1405, the advertisement is stimulated to be played while downloading.

The download and the play of the incentive advertisement are carried out asynchronously, aiming at the situation that no material cache is needed and real-time download is needed, namely, the situation that video materials are obtained from a material pool is carried out, the materials are downloaded and played simultaneously, and the double-pipeline parallelism of the material download and the video play is realized.

Step 1406, the advertisement is activated to play normally.

And step 1407, judging whether the progress meets the unlocking requirement.

That is, it is determined whether the play time period of the incentive advertisement reaches the required time period. And when the required time length is not reached, determining that the playing progress of the incentive advertisement does not meet the unlocking requirement.

When satisfied, step 1408, pre-unlocks.

The pre-unlocking refers to that the background server requests the playing authority of the current video content.

In step 1409, SSP determines whether the unlock has occurred.

At step 1410, when unlocked, the local unlocked state is updated.

Optionally, the current video segment is updated to an unlocked state.

Step 1411, the incentive advertisement continues to be played.

Optionally, since the user does not click on the close control, that is, the display of the currently-activated advertisement is not closed, the activated advertisement continues to be played.

And step 1412, ending the playing and displaying the covering layer.

The cover layer is used for displaying an identifier of an advertiser corresponding to the incentive advertisement and a detail control, and the detail control is used for being linked to a specified webpage, a purchase interface, an applet interface and the like, which is not limited in the embodiment of the application.

In step 1413, after the user clicks close, the unlock logic is supplemented.

The complementary unlocking logic is to unlock the video clip on the basis of acquiring the video content authority when the clip content is unlocked.

Step 1414, determine whether the advertisement playing progress meets the unlocking requirement.

And judging whether the playing time length of the incentive advertisement reaches the required time length. And when the required time length is not reached, determining that the playing progress of the incentive advertisement does not meet the unlocking requirement.

And step 1415, if the conditions are met, the unlocking is supplemented if the unlocking is not performed.

The complementary unlocking process is used for indicating the unlocking of the video clip.

At step 1416, the SSP is requested to unlock.

At step 1417, the callback request is ended, closing the incentive advertisement.

And the user clicks to close, so that the callback request is finished according to the completion of the complementary unlocking, the playing of the incentive advertisement is closed, and the unlocked content fragment is displayed.

And step 1418, when the unlocking requirement is not met, displaying and closing the pop-up window.

And when the unlocking requirement is not met, prompting the unlocking requirement in the closing popup window, thereby prompting the user that the unlocking requirement is not met currently, and closing the incentive advertisement and being incapable of unlocking the video clip for displaying.

At step 1419, click off, then close the advertisement and return to the query page.

The query page is also the aforementioned incentive advertisement portal, i.e. the unlock panel of the video clip.

Step 1420, when the incentive advertisement exception exits early, prompts the user to close the advertisement retry.
