Detailed Description

In order to make the objects, technical solutions and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention, and it is obvious that the described embodiments are some, but not all, embodiments of the present invention. All other embodiments, which can be derived by a person skilled in the art from the embodiments given herein without making any creative effort, shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.

Fig. 1 is a flowchart of an embodiment of a method for performing live broadcast interaction in a group, where as shown in fig. 1, the method for performing live broadcast interaction in a group provided in the embodiment of the present invention includes the following steps:

S101: receiving a grouping discussion request sent by a main user terminal, and grouping audience user terminals according to the grouping discussion request.

Specifically, a group discussion request sent by the anchor user terminal is received, and the audience user terminals are grouped according to the group discussion request. It may be a live platform that performs the method steps. The packet discussion request may carry packet information determined by the anchor user, and further, the audience user terminals may be grouped according to the packet information and the state information of the streaming server. The live broadcast platform can acquire the state information of the streaming media server by monitoring the streaming media server in real time, the anchor user can input grouping information in an input box of a display interface of an anchor user terminal, the grouping information can comprise the number of groups, and the method can also acquire the number of audience users watching the anchor user; accordingly, the grouping information may include the number of group discussion members of each group, and further, the ratio of the number of audience users to the number of group discussion members of each group may be rounded up to obtain the number of groups, for example, the number of audience users is 100, the number of group discussion members of each group is 5, the number of groups is 20, if the number of audience users is 100, the number of group discussion members of each group is 6, the ratio is 16.66, and the number of rounded up groups is 17, thereby ensuring that each user can be grouped into a group. That is, the anchor user may group audience users by entering the number of groups or the number of group discussion members per group.

The streaming media server may be understood as a server that sends a live streaming, and the state information of the streaming media server may include a residual load capacity, that is, a residual load capacity related to hardware parameters such as a CPU and a memory of the streaming media server, and it may be understood that the more the residual load capacity is, the better the device performance of the streaming media server is; the less the remaining load capacity, the worse the device performance of the streaming server. The state information of the streaming server may include network state parameters such as RTT (Round-Trip Time), i.e., Round-Trip delay, which refers to the Time required for data to be transmitted from one end of the network to the other end. Generally, the delay is composed of four parts, namely transmission delay, propagation delay, queuing delay and processing delay. The larger the RTT value is, the worse the network state is; the smaller the RTT value, the better the network status.

The grouping the audience user terminals according to the grouping information and the state information of the streaming media server may specifically include:

arranging the streaming media servers in a descending order according to the residual load capacity in the state information, and equally dividing the packet quantity of each streaming media server according to the arrangement order; wherein the number of packets is contained in the packet information. For example, 15 streaming media servers are shared, which are respectively denoted as s1 to s15, the number of packets is 20, which are respectively denoted as m1 to m20, if the residual load capacity of s3 is the largest and the residual load capacity of s2 is the next in s1 to s15, the streaming media servers are arranged in descending order as s3, s2 … and so on, m1 is divided into s3, m2 is divided into s2, and so on, it can be understood that if the number of packets is less than the number of streaming media servers, the next streaming media server is arranged without corresponding packets; if the number of packets is greater than the number of streaming media servers, there are at least two packets for the streaming media server arranged in the front, and referring to the above example, after m15 is allocated, each streaming media server is divided into one packet, then m16 is divided into s3, m17 is divided into s2, and so on, that the front 5 streaming media servers are arranged to serve two packets.

Determining the maximum RTT value and the minimum RTT value of the streaming media server corresponding to each audience user terminal; wherein RTT is included in the state information. Referring to the above example, for the 1 st audience user terminal, there are 15 RTTs corresponding to 15 streaming media servers, for example, the maximum value of the 15 RTTs is RTTmax2 corresponding to the streaming media server s2, the minimum value is RTTmin1 corresponding to the streaming media server s1, and for the 2 nd audience user terminal, there are 15 RTTs corresponding to the 15 streaming media servers, if the maximum value of the 15 RTTs is RTTmax3 corresponding to the streaming media server s3, the minimum value is RTTmin4 corresponding to the streaming media server s4, each audience user terminal has a corresponding maximum RTT value and a minimum RTT value.

Arranging all audience user terminals in a descending order according to the maximum RTT value, traversing all the audience user terminals in the sequence in order, and distributing all the audience user terminals to the packets of the service of the corresponding target streaming media servers; the target streaming media server corresponds to the RTT minimum value, and the group discussion members in the corresponding groups do not reach the preset accommodating number of people. Referring to the above example, if RTTmax3 is greater than RTTmax2, the 2 nd audience user terminal is arranged before the 1 st audience user terminal, and so on, all audience user terminals in the sequence are traversed sequentially, because the minimum value of the audience user terminals arranged at the 1 st position (i.e. the 2 nd audience user terminal) is RTTmin4 corresponding to the streaming server s4, and therefore, the group discussion members in the group served by the streaming server s4 do not reach the preset population of the group (the first distribution does not reach the preset population), the streaming server s4 is determined as the target streaming server corresponding to the audience user terminal, the audience user terminal is firstly distributed to the streaming server s4, at this time, the number of the group discussion members in the streaming server s4 is added by 1, referring to the above example, for the user terminal arranged at the 2 nd position (i.e. the 1 st audience user terminal), the target streaming media server is the streaming media server s1, the audience user terminals are distributed to the streaming media server s1, and so on, the number of the group discussion members in each target streaming media server is sequentially added by 1 until the preset number of the accommodated persons is reached, and the preset number of the accommodated persons can be set independently according to actual conditions.

It should be noted that, if the group discussion member in the group corresponding to the target streaming media server has reached the preset number of people in the group, a new target streaming media server is determined again, that is, the original target streaming media server is no longer distributed to audience user terminals by the live broadcast platform; the new target streaming media server is only larger than the RTT minimum value, and the number of the group discussion members in the corresponding group does not reach the preset accommodating people of the group. For example, for the audience user terminals ranked at the 80 th position, the original target streaming media server is streaming media server s4, but the streaming media server s4 contains the preset accommodating number of persons whose packet discussion members have reached the packet, and only the number of persons whose number is larger than the minimum value of RTT of streaming media server s4 (i.e. smaller than the minimum values of RTT of other streaming media servers) is streaming media server s7, and if the number of persons whose number is not reached by the packet discussion member in the packet served by streaming media server s7 is the preset accommodating number of the packet, streaming media server s7 is the new target streaming media server; if the group discussion member in the group served by the streaming server s7 also reaches the preset population of the group, only the group discussion member larger than the RTT minimum value of the streaming server s7 (i.e. smaller than the RTT minimum values of the other streaming servers) is the streaming server s9, and if the group discussion member in the group served by the streaming server s9 does not reach the preset population of the group, the streaming server s9 is the new target streaming server.

The principle followed by the grouping mode is to balance the load to all streaming media servers as much as possible and to avoid the packet video experience (namely, the data transmission delay is large) which is particularly poor in experience as much as possible. Assuming that there are N viewers in total, the live platform has S streaming servers in total to be divided into M groups. Arranging S servers according to the current residual load capacity in a descending order, and distributing a group to each server according to the order; if M is>And S, continuously increasing and distributing one group to each server according to the sequence until the M groups are distributed completely. After the server is allocated to each group, the number of people in each group is temporarily 0, and the maximum number of people in each group is set as follows: and C is rounded up (N/M). Let RTT be the value of RTT from the terminal device of the viewer i (i is 1,2,3, …, N) to the streaming server k (k is 1,2, …, S)_ikMaximum value of RTT value from viewer i to all servers

Minimum value of

All audiences are according to

Descending order, sequentially traversing all viewers in the queue, for viewer i,

joining viewer i to a server

The number of people who have not reached the maximum capacity; if all groups on the server have reached maximum capacity, then order

This is repeated until viewer i is assigned to a certain group.

S102: and controlling the streaming media server to send the live stream corresponding to each group to the audience user terminals of the corresponding group.

Specifically, the streaming media server sends the live stream corresponding to each group to the viewer user terminals corresponding to the group. Namely, the control streaming media server sends the live stream corresponding to each group to a target audience user terminal so that the target audience user terminal plays the live stream to realize the live interaction with the group discussion members; wherein the target audience user terminals are audience user terminals of intra-group discussion members corresponding to each group. For example, the streaming media server s4 corresponds to 5 groups, which are respectively marked as c 1-c 5, and takes c1 as an example, and includes that the audience user terminals are audience user terminals No. 2, audience user terminals No. 4, audience user terminals No. 6, audience user terminals No. 14, audience user terminals No. 15, and for the target audience user terminal is audience user terminal No. 2, the live streams corresponding to c1 are live streams corresponding to audience user terminals No. 4, audience user terminals No. 6, audience user terminals No. 14, audience user terminals No. 15, so that the live streams of audience user terminals No. 4, audience user terminals No. 6, audience user terminals No. 14, and audience user terminals No. 15 are respectively played in audience user terminal No. 2, thereby realizing the live interaction between audience user terminals No. 2 and audience user terminals No. 4, audience user terminals No. 6, audience user terminals No. 14, audience user terminals No. 15, further description of the other audience user terminals in c1 and groups other than c1 will not be repeated.

The grouping live broadcast interaction method provided by the embodiment of the invention groups the audience user terminals, and controls the streaming media server to send the live broadcast stream corresponding to each group to the audience user terminals corresponding to the group, thereby realizing the live broadcast interaction of the group discussion members.

On the basis of the above embodiment, the packet discussion request carries packet information determined by the anchor user; correspondingly, the grouping the audience user terminals according to the grouping discussion request comprises:

specifically, the audience user terminals are grouped according to the grouping information and the state information of the streaming media server. Reference is made to the above description and no further description is made.

The method for grouping live broadcast interaction provided by the embodiment of the invention groups the audience user terminals according to the grouping information and the state information of the streaming media server, controls the streaming media server to send the live broadcast stream corresponding to each group to the target audience user terminal, and further reasonably realizes the live broadcast interaction of the group discussion members.

On the basis of the above embodiment, the grouping the audience user terminals according to the grouping information and the state information of the streaming media server includes:

Specifically, according to the remaining load capacity in the state information, arranging the streaming media servers in a descending order, and equally dividing the number of packets served by each streaming media server according to the arrangement order; wherein the number of packets is contained in the packet information. Reference is made to the above description and no further description is given.

Specifically, the maximum RTT and the minimum RTT of the streaming media server corresponding to each viewer user terminal are determined; wherein RTT is included in the state information. Reference is made to the above description and no further description is given.

Specifically, all audience user terminals are arranged in a descending order according to the maximum RTT value, all audience user terminals in the sequence are traversed sequentially, and all audience user terminals are distributed to the groups of the service of the corresponding target streaming media servers; the target streaming media server corresponds to the RTT minimum value, and the group discussion members in the corresponding groups do not reach the preset accommodating number. Reference is made to the above description and no further description is made.

The method for grouping to carry out live broadcast interaction realizes reasonable grouping of audience users through a specific grouping method, and ensures that the method has a better playing effect.

On the basis of the above embodiment, the method for performing live broadcast interaction by grouping further includes:

specifically, if the number of the group discussion members in the group corresponding to the target streaming media server reaches the preset number of the group accommodation members, a new target streaming media server is determined again; and the new target streaming media server is only larger than the RTT minimum value, and the number of the group discussion members in the corresponding group does not reach the preset accommodating people of the group. Reference is made to the above description and no further description is given.

The method for grouping to carry out live broadcast interaction further optimizes the grouping process, realizes reasonable grouping of audience users and ensures better playing effect.

On the basis of the embodiment, the number of audience users watching the anchor user is also obtained; correspondingly, the determination of the preset accommodating number comprises the following steps:

Specifically, the preset accommodating number is determined according to the group number and the audience user number; wherein the preset number of persons for accommodation reserves the anchor user. If the number of the audience users is 100 and the number of the groups is 20, the ratio of the number of the audience users to the number of the groups is 5, and then one anchor user is reserved, namely the preset number of the accommodated people is 4.

The method for grouping to carry out live broadcast interaction ensures that the anchor user has better play effect after joining any group by reasonably determining the preset number of accommodated people.

Fig. 2 is a flowchart of an embodiment of a method for performing live broadcast interaction in a group, where as shown in fig. 2, the method for performing live broadcast interaction in a group provided in the embodiment of the present invention includes the following steps:

s201: receiving a group discussion request sent by a main broadcasting user terminal, and sending a live streaming request for acquiring group discussion members to a live broadcasting platform if a confirmation action triggered by the group discussion request is detected.

Specifically, a group discussion request sent by a main broadcasting user terminal is received, and if a confirmation action triggered by the group discussion request is detected, a live streaming request for acquiring group discussion members is sent to a live broadcasting platform. So that the live broadcast platform forwards the live broadcast stream request to a streaming media server; the group discussion member identifier may be sequentially and respectively carried in the group discussion request and the live streaming request. It may be the viewer user terminal, e.g. viewer user terminal B, that performs the method steps. The anchor user terminal a sends a packet discussion request (for example, "the anchor user a recommends the viewer user terminal C to you to participate in the discussion with you"), the packet discussion request may be displayed on an interface of the viewer user terminal B in the form of a bullet box, the viewer user B may click a button for accepting the approval to confirm that the packet discussion is grouped with the viewer user terminal C, and the discussion is performed, and the viewer user terminal B sends a live stream request (for example, a request for a live stream of the viewer user terminal C) to the live platform. Referring to the above example, the group discussion member identifier may be an audience user terminal C, or may also be a user nickname or the like corresponding to the audience user terminal C in the live broadcast platform, which is not specifically limited.

S202: and if the live stream returned by the stream media server controlled by the live broadcast platform aiming at the live stream request is detected, playing the live stream to realize the live interaction with the group discussion member.

Specifically, if a live stream returned by a streaming media server controlled by the live platform for the live stream request is detected, the live stream is played, and live interaction with group discussion members is realized. Referring to the above example, if the returned live stream is the live stream of the audience user terminal C, the live stream of the audience user terminal C is played in the audience user terminal B, so as to realize the live interaction with the group discussion member.

The method for grouping to carry out live broadcast interaction provided by the embodiment of the invention triggers a confirmation action aiming at the grouping discussion request, sends the live broadcast stream request for acquiring the grouping discussion members to the live broadcast platform, and plays the live broadcast stream returned by the streaming media server aiming at the live broadcast stream request, thereby realizing the live broadcast interaction of the grouping discussion members.

Specifically, in the process of playing the live stream, the original live stream of the anchor user terminal is not played any more. The original live stream of the anchor may continue to be sent to all the audience user terminals, for example, the audience user terminal B may have a fixed image (i.e., a certain frame of image of the original live stream) or may play a fixed video according to a predetermined rule (i.e., not playing the current live video of the anchor user). The predetermined rule may be polling the anchor user video recordings within one week of play, or the like.

The method for grouping to carry out live broadcast interaction saves network resources and further ensures that the live broadcast interaction has better playing effect.

Fig. 3 is a flowchart of an embodiment of a method for performing live broadcast interaction in a group, where as shown in fig. 3, the method for performing live broadcast interaction in a group provided in the embodiment of the present invention includes the following steps:

s301: and if the grouping operation action is detected, sending a grouping discussion request to a responder corresponding to the grouping operation action type.

Specifically, if a grouping operation action is detected, a grouping discussion request is sent to a responder corresponding to the grouping operation action type. It may be the anchor user terminal that performs the method steps. The grouping action may be a grouping action triggered by the anchor user for the audience user. The grouping action may be dragging the viewer user display marker to another viewer user display marker. When the anchor user is in live broadcast, the anchor user terminal interface displays information such as a real-time live broadcast picture, a message left by audiences and the like; when the anchor user slides the screen upwards, the display marks of all the audience users, such as the head portraits and the like, can be seen on the negative screen, the head portraits of all the audience users can be seen on the negative screen by the anchor user, when the anchor user drags the head portraits C of the audience user terminals C on the screen to be positioned at the head portraits B of another audience user terminal B, the response direction corresponding to the grouping operation action type is the audience user terminals, and a grouping discussion request is sent to the audience user terminals.

Further, a group discussion request may be sent to the viewer user terminal corresponding to the viewer user display tag and the other viewer user terminals corresponding to the other viewer user display tags; the group discussion request carries a main broadcasting user identification and an audience user identification except the audience user identification of a group discussion request receiver; the group discussion request, for example, "anchor nickname X" requests you and "nickname XC of viewer user C" to be grouped into the same group.

The anchor user identifier carried in the packet discussion request sent to the audience user terminal C may be an anchor nickname, the audience user identifiers other than the audience user terminal of the packet discussion request receiver (audience user terminal C) may be the avatar B or the nickname of the audience user terminal B, and the packet discussion request may be, for example, "anchor nickname X" requesting you and "nickname XB of the audience user B" to be grouped into the same group. At this time, after the audience user terminal B and the audience user terminal C are divided into a group, the head portraits of the two audience users in the anchor user terminal can be combined into one head portraits, the closing symbol is displayed at the upper right corner, after the anchor user clicks the closing symbol, the group is dispersed, and further, the live broadcast interaction of the two audience users is terminated. When the anchor user drags the avatar of the third viewer user to the merged avatar, the third viewer user may join the group, which is not described in detail.

The grouping action may be input grouping information, such as the number of input groupings, and the sending of the grouping discussion request to the responder corresponding to the grouping action type may specifically include:

sending a grouping discussion request to a live broadcast platform; the packet discussion request carries the packet information. The live broadcast platform performs grouping description according to the grouping number, and reference may be made to the above description, which is not described again.

S302: and if a triggering action of adding the group, which is triggered after the responder completes the group according to the group discussion request, is detected, sending a group discussion adding request to a live broadcast platform, and if receiving a live broadcast stream of an audience user, which is returned by the live broadcast platform aiming at the group discussion adding request and the streaming media server, playing the live broadcast stream of the audience user to realize the live broadcast interaction of the group discussion members.

Specifically, if a trigger action of joining a group, which is triggered after the responder completes grouping according to the group discussion request, is detected, a group discussion joining request is sent to a live broadcast platform, and if a live broadcast stream of an audience user, which is returned by the live broadcast platform for the group discussion joining request and the streaming media server, is received, the live broadcast stream of the audience user is played, so that live broadcast interaction of group discussion members is realized. And sending a group discussion joining request to the live broadcast platform when the group discussion joining request can be triggered by the anchor user, wherein the group discussion joining request can carry an anchor user identifier and a group identifier, so that the live broadcast platform controls a streaming media server corresponding to the group identifier to be joined into the group to send the live broadcast stream of the anchor user to the audience user terminals of the group discussion members after confirming the anchor user identifier, and sends the live broadcast stream of the audience user terminals of the group discussion members to the local of the anchor user.

The anchor user terminal may then play the live stream of the audience user terminals of the discussion members in the anchor user local play group. The trigger action may be dragging the anchor user display mark to the group to be joined, for example, the anchor user wants to join the group c1, the join group discussion request may carry the anchor user nickname and c1, the anchor user may join any group at any time, and since there is redundancy in the preset number of persons accommodated in the group, the live broadcast effect may be ensured after joining the anchor user, and the anchor user may join a group at the same time.

When the anchor joins a group, the anchor user terminal can receive the live stream of all audience users in the group, and the anchor user also newly initiates a live stream and multicasts the live stream to all audience user terminals in the group. All user terminals (including the anchor user terminal and/or the audience user terminal) in the group can start a camera and a microphone, capture the picture and audio information of discussion members in the group, initiate a live stream, and stream the live stream to a streaming media server to realize multicast in the group. The new joining member can receive the live broadcast streams of all other discussion members in the group, establish the own live broadcast stream and multicast the live broadcast stream to all other discussion members in the group.

The anchor user can independently end the live broadcast interaction of a certain packet, and can also return to normal live broadcast by one key to bundle the live broadcast interaction of all packets.
