Description

Method, device and storage medium for live game

Technical Field

The present application relates to the field of network technologies, and in particular, to a method, an apparatus, and a storage medium for live broadcasting in a match.

Background

At present, with the rapid development of network technology, live broadcast technology has also been developed rapidly. Based on the live broadcast technology, the host can conveniently conduct live broadcast in the live broadcast room, and audiences can conveniently enter the live broadcast room of the host to watch the performance of the host. Moreover, with the diversification of the live broadcast function, the live broadcast of the game can also be performed.

Current live games are typically live in an online game, which means that multiple anchor plays by performing in their respective live rooms. The playing time of the online game is generally longer, generally one week, half month or one month, etc. During the game, a plurality of anchor plays participating in the game can be respectively live in respective live broadcast rooms, and audiences can vote for favorite anchor plays in the live broadcast rooms of the anchor plays. At the end of the game, the live broadcast server may count the number of votes received by each of the anchors during the game, determine a score for each of the anchors based on the number of votes for each of the anchors, determine a final game result based on the score for each of the anchors, and push the game result to the live broadcast room of each of the anchors. Because the live broadcast of the online competition generally lasts longer, the real-time requirement on the competition result is not high, the competition score is generally calculated by adopting a post-statistics and repair mode, and the competition score calculation logic is simpler.

However, in many scenarios, the audience still wants to watch the live broadcast of some off-line games, such as the live broadcast of an off-line talk show game, but because the live broadcast of the off-line game has a short general live broadcast time and high real-time requirements, the voting and score calculating logic of the on-line game cannot be directly applied to the live broadcast of the off-line game, so how to perform the on-line game live broadcast becomes a current urgent problem to be solved.

Detailed Description

For the purpose of making the objects, technical solutions and advantages of the present application more apparent, the embodiments of the present application will be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

Before explaining the embodiment of the present application in detail, an application scenario of the embodiment of the present application is described.

The live game method provided by the embodiment of the application is applied to the scene of live broadcasting of the off-line game, such as the off-line game of the off-line show game or the off-line display game and the like. As an example, a viewer may watch a live broadcast of an off-line game through a live room, and the viewer may vote for a competitor of the off-line game within the live room, which may display the game score of the off-line game in real time.

It should be noted that, because the online competition has longer competition time, the requirement on real-time performance is not high, and the competition score does not need to be displayed in real time, so that the competition score does not need to be calculated in real time, the requirement on the accuracy of the real-time score is also not high, and the consistency of data can be ensured by adopting a post-repair mode. In the embodiment of the application, in order to meet the real-time requirement of the off-line game, a user can intuitively see the real-time game score conveniently, and a scheme for displaying the game score of the off-line game in real time in a live broadcasting room is provided. In addition, in order to ensure the accuracy of the real-time score, a scoring logic for updating the score of the competition of the under-line competition based on the competitor identification and the message identification in the voting request message is provided, so that the repeated scoring condition can be avoided, and the scoring accuracy is improved.

In addition, the competition state of the online competition is relatively simple, generally only two states of a starting state and an ending state, and the two states can be judged by a fixed starting time and a fixed ending time which are preset. However, since the off-line competition is performed off-line, competition progress is looped, interference factors are more, and competition state is uncontrollable, so that competition state cannot be judged by fixed time. In the embodiment of the application, in order to accurately determine the competition state of the off-line competition, a guide terminal is added in the live broadcast system, and the guide can control the competition state of the off-line competition through the guide terminal, thereby realizing the close matching of the off-line competition and the on-line living broadcast and ensuring the normal running of the competition.

Next, an implementation environment according to an embodiment of the present application will be described.

Fig. 1 is a schematic architecture diagram of a live broadcast system according to an embodiment of the present application, and as shown in fig. 1, the live broadcast system includes an audience terminal 10, a server 20, and a storage system 30. The viewer terminal 10 and the server 20 may be connected through a wired network or a wireless network, and the server 20 may perform read/write operations with respect to the storage system 30.

The audience terminal 10 is a terminal for watching live events off-line, and may be a mobile phone, a tablet computer, a computer, or the like. The server 20 may be a background server for live off-line games and may be one or more servers in a server cluster.

The server 20 may transmit live data of the off-line game to the viewer terminal 10, be displayed by the viewer terminal 10 through the live room, and the live room may display the game score of the off-line game in real time. The audience may vote for the parameterer within the living room through the audience terminal 10, triggering the audience terminal 10 to send a vote request message to the server 20. After receiving the voting request message, the server 20 may update the game score based on the voting request message, and transmit the updated game score to the audience terminal 10, and the audience terminal 10 refreshes the displayed game score.

In addition, as shown in fig. 1, the live broadcast system may further include a director terminal 40, where the director terminal 40 is a terminal used for director of an offline game, and may be a mobile phone, a tablet computer, a computer, or the like. The pilot may control the competition status of the off-line competition by using the pilot terminal 40, thereby realizing the close coordination of the off-line competition and the on-line living broadcast and ensuring the normal running of the competition.

As one example, the viewer terminal 10 may access the server 20 through an access system that may implement one or more of multi-network unified access, external network request forwarding, automatic load balancing, mobile connectivity services, and web proxy services.

For example, the access system may include one or more of TGW (Tencent Gateway), WNS (Wireless Network Service ), and Nginx (an open source web server software). The system is characterized in that the TGW is a system capable of realizing unified access of multiple networks, forwarding of external network requests and supporting automatic load balancing, the WNS is used for providing high-connectivity, high-reliability and strong-safety network connection channels for APP (application), and the Nginx is open-source Web server software used for providing proxy services for Web (Web pages).

For example, if the audience terminal 10 views live in-line matches through a live client, the audience terminal 10 may access the server through TGW and WNS. If the audience terminal 10 views the off-line game live through the web page, the audience terminal 10 may access the server through TGW and naginx.

As one example, the server 20 may push game information to the viewer terminal 10 through a message channel. The game information may include at least one of a game score and a game status.

As one example, the logic modules of the server 20 may include an active write service, a Push service, an active read service, and a director service. Wherein the active write service is used to write data to the storage system 30, such as a voting request message to the viewer. The Push service is used to Push game information, such as Push list information, to the audience terminal 10 through a message channel. The active read service is used to read data from the storage system 30, such as information on game scores or game status. The director service is used to switch the game status of the off-line game.

As one example, the storage system 30 may be a distributed storage system, such as Codis (a distributed storage system) or CKV (a distributed storage system), or the like. In addition, the storage system 30 may also include a first storage system for storing game scores and information related thereto, such as a voting request message stream for the audience and game score information. The second storage system is used for storing the competition state and related information thereof, such as state switching message stream and competition state information of the guide broadcast.

Fig. 2 is a schematic architecture diagram of another live broadcast system according to an embodiment of the present application, and as shown in fig. 2, the live broadcast system includes a terminal 21, an access system 22, a server 23, and a storage system 24. The terminal 21 may be a viewer terminal or a director terminal. The terminal 21 may access a server through an access system for storing voting request message stream, status switching message stream, game information, etc., and the server may perform read/write operations with respect to the storage system.

The audience terminal can access the live broadcasting room of the off-line game through the application program, and can also access the live broadcasting room of the off-line game through the user webpage. If the terminal accesses the live broadcasting room of the off-line competition through the application program, the terminal can access the server through the TGW and the WNS; if the user web page is used for accessing the live broadcasting room of the off-line game, the terminal can access the server through the TGW and the Nginx.

The server may provide an active write service, a Push service, an active read service, a director service, and the like. When a voting request message transmitted by the terminal is received, the server may write the voting request message to the storage system through the active write service. In addition, the game information in the storage system may be read by an active read service. When the terminal accesses a live broadcast room of an off-line game through an application program, the server can push game information to the terminal through a message channel; when the terminal accesses the live broadcasting room of the off-line game through the user webpage, the terminal can send an information acquisition request to the server, the server reads the game information in the storage system through the active reading server according to the information acquisition request, and the read game information is returned to the terminal.

In addition, the guide terminal can control the live state of live broadcasting under the line through the guide webpage. For example, the guide may trigger a status switching message in the guide web page, and the server switches the competition status of the under-line competition through the guide service according to the status switching message.

Fig. 3 is a flowchart of a live game provided by an embodiment of the present application, where the method may be applied to the live game system, as shown in fig. 3, and includes the following steps:

step 301: the audience terminal enters a live room for displaying live video of the off-line game.

The live broadcasting room is an off-line live broadcasting room. As one example, the live room of an off-line game may have only one live room, such as an official live room provided by an off-line game live provider.

In some embodiments, the audience terminal may enter the living room through an application, such as an application of an off-line game living provider, or through a web page, such as a browser web page.

As an example, referring to fig. 4, after the viewer terminal enters the living room, a live video 41 of an off-line game as shown in fig. 4 may be displayed.

Step 302: when a voting operation is detected based on the live broadcasting room, the audience terminal sends a first voting request message to the server, wherein the first voting request message carries a competitor identifier and a first message identifier.

The voting operation is triggered by the audience in the live broadcast room, and may be a triggering operation of voting options, an operation of giving away gifts, or the like, which is not limited in the embodiment of the present application.

As an example, the spectator may vote for the contestant by presenting the contestant with the gift, i.e. presenting the gift for a certain contestant, i.e. equivalent to voting for the contestant, and triggering a first voting request message carrying the contestant's contestant identification.

For example, the living broadcast room displays gift options, and when a certain parameter person performs, the audience can trigger the gift options in the living broadcast room to give the gift to the parameter person performing. Alternatively, the living room may display various types of gifts, which correspond one-to-one to different parameter persons, and the viewer may give the parameter person a gift by triggering the gifting of the gift corresponding to the parameter person.

Wherein, the parameter person identification is used for uniquely identifying the parameter person, and can be the name or ID (Identity Document, identity) of the parameter person, and the like. The first message identifier is used for identifying voting request messages triggered by the same voting operation, that is, message identifiers carried by the voting request messages triggered by the same voting operation are the same.

For example, after the terminal sends the voting request message based on the voting operation, if the voting request message is failed to be sent or is delayed to be sent, the terminal may be triggered to resend the voting request message, and the message identifier carried by the resent voting request message is the same as the message identifier carried in the voting request message sent last time, that is, the message identifiers carried in the voting request messages sent two times are the same, which means that the voting request message triggered by the same voting operation.

Step 303: the server receives a first voting request message sent by the audience terminal.

After receiving the first voting request message sent by the viewer terminal, the server may also first write the first voting request message into the storage system to record the voting request message stream. As one example, the storage system may be a distributed storage system, such as Codis or CKV, or the like.

Step 304: the server updates the competition score of the under-line competition based on the competitor identification and the first message identification carried in the first voting request message.

That is, the game score of the parameterer indicated by the parameterer identifier may be scored based on the competitor identifier and the first message identifier carried in the first voting request message.

As an example, it may be detected whether the first voting request message has been responded based on the first message identification, if the first voting request message is detected as not having been responded based on the first message identification, the competition score of the competitor indicated by the competitor identification is scored, and if the first voting request message is detected as having been responded based on the first message identification, the competition score of the competitor indicated by the competitor identification is not scored.

That is, if a certain first voting request message carrying a first message identifier has been responded, after the first voting request message carrying the first message identifier is subsequently received, it can be judged that the message has been responded according to the first message identifier, and the response is not repeated, so that repeated scoring of the same voting operation can be avoided, less scoring is ensured, and the scoring accuracy is improved.

As an example, it may be detected whether the corresponding first voting request message has been responded by detecting whether a first message identity is present in a message identity list for storing message identities carried by the responded voting request messages.

For example, the message identification list may be detected based on the first message identification; if the fact that the first message identifier does not exist in the message identifier list is detected, scoring the competition score of the competitor indicated by the competitor identifier, and storing the first message identifier in the message identifier list. If the first message identifier exists in the message identifier list, the competition score of the competitor indicated by the competitor identifier is not added.

In another embodiment, in order to ensure no reduction, a backup server can be provided on the basis of the current server, and when the current server fails, the backup server can be switched to, and data during the switching of the servers can be reprocessed through the backup server. The number of backup servers may be 1 or more, which is not limited in the embodiment of the present application. For example, a server system of one primary server and two backup servers may be employed.

Referring to fig. 5, fig. 5 is a logic diagram of a rework process according to an embodiment of the present application. As shown in fig. 5, after receiving the voting request message, the server 51 may write the voting request message into the database and process the game score in addition to the voting request message. When the server 51 fails, a redo service may also be initiated by which data during the failure of the server 51 is reprocessed. For example, the voting request message received during the failure of the server 51 is rewritten to the database, and the addition processing is repeated.

For example, when the current server fails, the current server can be switched to the backup server, and the voting request message received during the switching period of the server is reworked through the backup server, so that the accuracy of data during the switching period is ensured. The redo process may include updating the game score of the under-line game based on the voting request message received during the server switch, and may further include rewriting the voting request message received during the server switch into the storage system.

For example, if the server is down in the process of adding the score, there may be a situation of less score adding, so that in order to avoid the situation of adding the score, the received voting request message may not be confirmed, and it is ensured that the message may be responded by other servers. If the data writing fails, the failure stream can be reworked through the backup server, so that the data can be ensured to be written into the storage system.

In another embodiment, to avoid network delays in the voting request process, which may result in the user's vote not being counted, the audience's vote may be accumulated throughout the course of the game and the game score for each parameter determined by writing a snapshot at each stage of the game. That is, at the end of the game at each game stage, the score of each parameter at the end of the game is determined, and the score of each parameter at the end of the game is a snapshot, and then the score of each parameter at the end of the game is used as the result of the game at the game stage. Further, after the competition is finished, if the competition has votes, competition scoring can be carried out continuously according to the votes.

Step 305: the server transmits the updated game score to the audience terminal.

As one example, the server may push updated game scores to the audience terminal via a message channel.

In the related art, in an online competition live broadcast scene, 1 ten thousand of participating anchor are assumed, and in order to reduce the server pressure, two data caching schemes exist. One is: if there are 20 servers, the 20 servers all buffer the whole amount of anchor data, and the buffer is updated every second, and the buffer amount per second is 20×1w=20w, so that the pressure is doubled instead. The other is: if user routing is done at the NGINX layer, then each server only needs to buffer 500 anchor data per second, and the amount of buffering per second is 20 x 500 = 1W.

The scheme seems to solve the pressure problem, but live broadcasting of the off-line competition is a special scene, and the off-line competition only has one live broadcasting room, so that the number of people in the single live broadcasting room can easily reach more than 10W, the polling pressure falls on the same server, and the server pressure is very high.

In the embodiment of the application, in order to reduce the pressure of the live broadcast of the off-line game, the change of the data in the live broadcast of the off-line game is generally triggered by the voting request message of the audience, and the data volume of the voting request message of the audience is smaller, generally 100/s, and is generally concentrated and continuously transmitted for a period of time, so that the update level of the game information is much lower than the polling frequency. Based on the above, in the embodiment of the application, the changed data can be sent to the terminal only when the voting request message is received, and the data is not pushed when the voting request message is not received, so that the data volume is reduced.

As an example, the voting request message received in the preset time period may be acquired every preset time period; if the current time reaches the expiration time of the preset duration, updating the competition score of the online competition based on the competitor identifiers and the message identifiers carried in all voting request messages received in the preset duration, and then sending the updated competition score obtained by updating the competition score of the online competition in the preset duration to the audience terminal. Wherein all voting request messages carry the first voting request message.

The preset duration may be preset, for example, the preset duration may be 1s or 2s, etc. For ease of distinction, this preset time period may be referred to as a first preset time period.

That is, the unified score update and pushing can be performed every preset time based on the voting request message received in the preset time, so that the update times and the pushing times are reduced, and the data processing amount is reduced.

In addition, in order to prevent data loss or data transmission failure, the audience terminal may further send an information acquisition request to the server when update data of the game score is not received within the second preset time period, so as to request the server to acquire the game score according to the information acquisition request, and send the game score to the audience terminal.

For example, the server may read the game score from the storage system according to the information acquisition request after receiving the information acquisition request, and then transmit the game score to the viewer terminal.

In this way, the audience terminal can actively acquire the update data from the server when the update data is received for a long time, thereby preventing the data loss or the data transmission failure of the server.

The second preset duration may also be preset, for example, may be 30s or one minute.

Furthermore, the update data sent to the audience terminal by the server can also carry a message time stamp, and the message time stamp is used as a version number, so that the audience terminal can update the data according to the version number, and data rebound is avoided. For example, if the message time stamp of the received update data is earlier than the message time stamp of the currently received update data, the data update is not needed according to the update data, so that data rebound can be avoided.

Furthermore, the front end is also protected, the competition score is only increased and not reduced, and even if the time stamps are disordered in the extreme case, the display of the user is not affected.

Step 306: and the audience terminal receives the updated competition score and refreshes the competition information displayed in the live broadcasting room according to the updated competition score.

The audience terminal can display new games in the living broadcast room, and the game information at least comprises game scores and other information such as game states.

For example, the game score may include a game score of each competitor, and may also include a game score of a portion of the competitors, where the competitor corresponding to the displayed game score is related to the current game progress. The score of the game may be the number of votes or a score obtained by converting the number of votes.

For example, the live room may display a list and display the contest scores of the contestants in the list. For example, the list may display the game score of the competitor with the highest current game score in the current game stage, as well as the game score of the current competitor. As one example, the competitor with the highest current competition score in the current competition stage may be referred to as a competitor, the current competitor may be referred to as a challenger, and the competition score of the competitor and the competition score of the challenger may then be displayed in the list. For example, the live room may display any of the sheets shown in FIG. 6 according to the progress of the game. For example, the list 61, the list 62, the list 63, and the list 64 may be the list displayed in the first-round 1V1 competition stage, and the list 65, the list 66, and the list 67 may be the list displayed in the second-round competition stage.

As one example, after the audience terminal receives the updated game score, the list of the live room may be refreshed based on the updated game score.

As an example, the server may further store list information in the storage system, update the list based on the voting request message of the audience, and transmit the updated list to the audience terminal for display by the audience terminal.

Step 307: the guiding terminal displays a competition state control interface of the off-line competition.

In order to control the competition state of the under-line competition, the embodiment of the application adds a guide terminal in the live broadcast system, and the guide terminal can be used for controlling the competition state of the under-line competition.

The race status of the offline race may include race progress status, such as a start status, a race status, and an end status. In addition, the method can also comprise the presence condition of each competitor in the competition process, and the presence condition can comprise the presence condition of no-presence, presence and the like.

In addition, the off-line game may further include a game of a plurality of stages, and the game state may further include a current stage and a game progress state of the current stage. By way of example, the plurality of phases may include a 1-to-1 phase, a revival phase, a halfproof phase, a resolution phase, and the like. For example, the 1-to-1 stage can determine the fight sequence through the lottery before the competition, stop the counting of the on-the-spot competition after the competition is finished, the winner enters the resolution, and the loser enters the reviving stage. And in the reviving stage, each person performs a section to obtain the most voted entry into the jeopardizing, and the reviving is successful. The final stage adopts the form of wheel battle, two pairs are in turn in the battle, and the winner obtains the total champion.

As one example, the lead terminal may display a race status control interface for a cable down race. For example, the race condition control interface may be used to control one or more of race progress status, the presence of a competitor, the stage at which the race is located, and the race progress status of each race stage. By way of example, the race condition control interface may include at least one of a race phase control panel 71, a 1-to-1 race phase control panel 72, and a general resolution phase control panel 73, as shown in fig. 7.

Step 308: and the multicast guiding terminal receives the state switching instruction based on the competition state control interface.

The state switching instruction can be triggered by the guide broadcast through a designated operation, and the designated operation can be triggered by a triggering operation of a state switching option in the competition state control interface or by a command line.

For example, if the game state control interface is not available, the director terminal may also receive a state switching instruction triggered based on the command line, so as to direct control of the game state by the command line.

Step 309: and the multicast guiding terminal sends a first state switching message to the server based on the state switching instruction.

The first state switching message is used for controlling competition state information of the offline competition.

As an example, the first state switch message may also carry a message timestamp, which may be used to indicate a time of generation or time of transmission of the first state switch message, or the like.

As an example, the first status switching message may also carry target status information to be switched to, so that the server switches the game status information to the target status information.

Step 310: the server receives a first state switching message sent by the multicast guiding terminal, and switches the competition state information of the competition under the line based on the first state switching message.

As one example, the storage system may include m storage devices, so that the server may store data in a multi-storage manner, thereby improving accuracy of the data. Where m is an integer greater than 1, and m may be preset, for example, m is 3 or 4, etc.

Further, after receiving the first state switching message, the first state switching message may be written into the m storage devices, respectively, so as to record the state switching message pipeline through the m storage devices.

As one example, based on the first status switching message, the ensuring of switching the game status information of the under-line game includes: writing the first state switching message into m storage devices, and respectively acquiring the state switching message which is written recently after the first state switching message is received from the m storage devices to obtain n second state switching messages; if n is greater than or equal to a preset threshold value, determining a target state switching message from n second state switching messages, wherein the target state switching message is the second state switching message with the earliest carried message time stamp; and then switching the competition state information of the competition under the line based on a switching instruction carried by the target state switching message.

Wherein n is a positive integer, and n is less than or equal to m. If a write fails or a write error occurs when a certain storage device writes a first state switch message, a failure may be obtained when the newly written state switch message is obtained from the storage device. In the embodiment of the application, n second state switching messages can be successfully acquired, n is greater than or equal to the preset threshold value, the successful acquisition is determined, and the competition state information of the competition under the line is switched.

In addition, when the competition state information is read from the storage system, the competition state information can be respectively read from m storage devices, and if n pieces of competition state information are successfully read and n is greater than or equal to a preset threshold value, the competition state information with the highest version number is obtained from the read competition state information and is used as the latest state information. Wherein the version number of the game state information may be a time stamp of the game state information.

Further, after the server switches the competition state information of the offline competition, the server may also send the switching data of the competition state information of the offline competition to the audience terminal, and the audience terminal refreshes the competition state information displayed in the live broadcasting room based on the switching data.

Further, in the live broadcast process, the flexibility degradation strategy of adding points can be stopped by stopping music in the playing process of the match, so that complaints of users are reduced.

Further, the competition score in the competition process can be determined by writing a snapshot, so that reentrant operation in each time is ensured, and the influence caused by uncertain problems such as network delay and the like is solved.

In the embodiment of the application, in the live broadcasting process of the off-line game, the voting request message sent by the audience terminal can be received, then the game score of the off-line game is updated according to the competitor identifier and the message identifier carried in the voting request message, the updated data is sent to the audience terminal, and the audience terminal refreshes the game score displayed in the live broadcasting room according to the updated data, so that the score of the parameter can be added in real time, the game score of the parameter can be displayed in the live broadcasting room in real time, and the real-time requirement of the live broadcasting of the off-line game is met. In addition, by adding the message identifier in the voting request message and using the message identifier to identify the voting request message triggered by the same voting operation, repeated scoring based on the same voting operation can be avoided, and the accuracy of scoring is improved. In addition, the embodiment of the application completes a live broadcast system scheme of the off-line competition with high availability, flexible degradation and extremely high fault tolerance and real-time performance through the realization logic of the modules such as the active writing service, the Push service, the active reading service, the guide broadcasting service and the like, and effectively ensures the playability and the reliability of the live broadcast of the off-line competition.
