Abstract

The invention discloses a system and method for realizing discontinuous interactive video on demand. The invention has the main technical characteristic of processing a video file into multiple video clips according to the terminal and network characteristics of a user and giving a recognizable identity (discontinuous information for short) for each video clip. The system comprises a terminal system and a server side system, wherein the terminal system is mainly responsible for man-machine interaction and video playing; and the server side system is used for managing the video file and user information, transmitting a target video clip and breakpoint information of the clip to the terminal system and simultaneously receiving the play status of the terminal. The play status comprises the breakpoint information of video clips played and received by the terminal system. The discontinuous playing of a video is realized through the interactive management of breakpoint information via the terminal and the server side system. Because the transmission and playing manner through video clips is adopted, the invention has low requirement for network bandwidth, and are especially applicable to the video on demand on mobile phones.

2. background technology
VOD (Video on Demand) is the abbreviation of video on demand techniques.At present, according to different functional requirements and application scenarios, mainly contain three kinds of VOD system: NVOD, TVOD, IVOD.
NVOD (Near-Video-On-Demand) can be called formula video request program nearby.This some broadcast mode is: a plurality of video flowings start to send same content between successively at regular intervals.Such as, 12 video flowings started one every ten minutes and send two hours same TV programme.If the user wants to see that this TV programme may need to wait for, but the longlyest can not surpass ten minutes, they can select to watch apart from their certain nearest start time.In this manner, a video flowing may be shared for many users.
TVOD (True Video-On-Demand) is called true program request, and its real support is promptly promptly put.When the user filed a request, video server will transmit the desired video content of user immediately.If there is another user to propose same demand, video server will be restarted the video flowing that another transmits same content for him immediately.But, in case video flowing begins to play, will continuously play down, up to end.Under this mode, each video flowing transfers certain user's service to.
IVOD (Interactive Video-On-Demand) is called interactive program request.Be common in the video player on the Internet, can see the network film, broadcast is generally arranged, suspend, refund, function such as F.F. by it.There is certain defective in existing online video playback: if user's break of video is play for some reason, but wish that when interruptions was play again from last time, this request was difficult to be met on suitable opportunity.
For the user provides the point of interruption of automatic record last time, write down program request history automatically, the user can be a purpose of the present invention from the interactively VOD system that interruptions continues to play on opportunity arbitrarily.
3. content
Terminal and network characteristics according to the user are treated to a plurality of video segments to video file, and to give discernible sign (abbreviating breakpoint information as) for each video segment be major technique characteristics of the present invention.System is made of terminal system and server-side system.Mutual and the video playback of terminal system chief leading cadre's machine.Server-side system is in charge of video file and user profile, sends the breakpoint information of target video fragment and this fragment to terminal system, simultaneously the broadcast state of receiving terminal.Broadcast state comprises the breakpoint information of terminal system video segment that just playing and that received.By the interactive maintenance of terminal and server-side system to breakpoint information, realize video can be interrupted broadcast.
The detailed functions of terminal system is as follows,
1) provides human-computer interaction interface, accept the information of user's input.
2) send connection and order request to server-side system, user's operation video indication.
3) as this program request the breakpoint historical record is arranged in server end, then make the indication of whether continued broadcasting.
4) breakpoint information of the video segment that transmits of reception server end system and this fragment.
5) displaying video fragment.The broadcast state of announcement server end system notice terminal, broadcast state comprises the breakpoint information of the video segment of just playing of having received.
Server-side system is responsible for
1) video file management:
According to user's terminal and network characteristics, video file is treated to a plurality of video segments also gives discernible breakpoint information for each video segment.
2) subscriber information management:
The leading subscriber personal information, user's the program request historical record and the breakpoint historical information of program request, payment and credit record etc.
3) connection request of receiving terminal system:
The user profile that transmits according to terminal system judge whether should the response terminal system connection request.If should not respond, then refuse connection request and notify terminal system unaccepted reason.If should respond,, upgrade this user's program request historical record and inquire about this user whether relevant breakpoint historical information is arranged then according to user's order request.If the breakpoint historical information is arranged, then send the whether affirmation of continued broadcasting of this program request to terminal system.
4) determine the target video fragment:
If the user is the order request of specifying video segment, then this video segment is the target video fragment.
If the user is the program request first time of this video, then the video segment that begins most is the target video fragment.
If the user is the continued broadcasting request, then the breakpoint historical information with this program request is the retrieval key message, determines the target video fragment.
If receive the broadcast state of terminal, the breakpoint information that comprises the video segment of just playing of having received that transmits according to terminal system is then determined the target video fragment and is upgraded the breakpoint historical information of this this program request of user.
5) send the breakpoint information of target video fragment and this fragment to terminal system.
Because this system has adopted the mode by video segment transmission and broadcast, and is not high to network bandwidth requirement, especially be fit to use the video request program of breaking and to continue of mobile phone.
