Referring to fig. 3, fig. 3 is an alternative flow chart of a video playing method provided in the embodiment of the present application, and will be described with reference to the steps shown in fig. 3.

Step 301: and the terminal plays the video content of the target video in the playing interface.

Here, the target video may be a single episode such as a target video movie, a single episode of a documentary, a single episode of a tv series, a plurality of episodes such as a target video episode of a tv series, a short video shot by a net friend, or the like.

Step 302: in the process of playing the video content, when an associated video associated with the currently played video content exists, the associated indication information of the video thumbnail containing the associated video is presented.

The video thumbnail is a video cover of the associated video, and can be obtained by intercepting a first frame image or other frame images of the associated video, or can be obtained by continuously intercepting multiple frame images of the associated video; and the association indication information is used for indicating that the video corresponding to the video thumbnail has an association relation with the currently played video content, namely for indicating that the video corresponding to the video thumbnail is the associated video of the currently played video content.

The following describes the associated video, where the associated video and the currently played video may be two video segments in the same video, that is, belong to the same video, and for example, may be two shots in the same television show, or two episodes in the same television show, or one of the two episodes is one episode of the television show and the other is a feature of the television show; the associated video and the currently playing video may also be videos of two separate subjects, such as two television shows, or one of them being a episode in a television show and the other being a self-media short video.

The associated video and the currently played video have an association relation on the video content, and the video content comprises at least one of plot content and scene content; in some embodiments, the episode content includes at least one of dialog content and subtitle content of the video, and the scene content includes background content and character objects of the video.

In some embodiments, the associated video and the currently played video have an association relationship on the episode content (e.g., the currently played audio content or the displayed subtitle text), and if the user views the video clip a while watching the target video, and the scenario of the currently played video clip a refers to the content of the previously played video clip B, the video clip B is considered to be the associated video of the currently played video content.

In some embodiments, the associated video and the currently played video have an association relationship on the scene content, and for this case, in actual implementation, since the scene content includes the background content and the character object of the video, if the associated video and the currently played video have an association with at least one of the background content and the character object, the associated video and the currently played video are regarded as having an association on the scene content. Here, the background content refers to a geographical location (i.e., a scene place) or a building corresponding to an image background in the currently played video picture, and the character object refers to a character appearing in the currently played video picture.

For example, the associated video and the currently played video are associated on the background content, that is, the geographic location where the event occurs in the associated video is associated with the geographic location or the building corresponding to the currently played video, and at this time, whether the character object in the two videos is associated or not and whether the video plot is associated or not may not be considered; the geographical location presence associations may be the same geographical location (i.e. the same occurrence places corresponding to the storylines in the two videos), and the building presence associations may be the same building or the similarity reaches the similarity threshold. For example, if the user is watching the target video, the currently played video pictures are: if the person A wins the moon at the target location B, the highlight of the person A at the target location B or the highlight occurring at the target location B in the target video is taken as the associated video; in other embodiments, the associated video may also be a shot of the target video that is related to the scene, such as a highlight shot at the scene (e.g., "target location B") when the target video is shot; in other embodiments, the associated video may also be a simulation video of a friend simulating a highlight video segment occurring in the scene place (e.g., "goal place B"), or a highlight video of the friend taken in the scene place (e.g., "goal place B") and unrelated to the goal video, and so on.

For example, the associated video is associated with the currently played video on the character object, that is, the character object in the associated video is associated with the character object in the currently played video, and at this time, whether the scenes corresponding to the two videos and the video plot are associated may not be considered; the person object existing association here may be that the associated video is the same as or at least partially the same as the person object in the currently played video. For example, if person a and person B appear in a currently played video, the associated video may be a video including person a and person B.

In some embodiments, before the terminal presents the association indication information of the video thumbnail containing the associated video, the associated video may be determined by:

extracting keywords from a subtitle text in the video content to obtain keywords of the subtitle text; and matching the keywords of the subtitle text with target keywords associated with the pre-stored video, and taking the pre-stored video associated with the target keywords as the associated video when the keywords are matched with the target keywords.

In practical application, for a target video of a television series type, firstly, an associated video library is established through a terminal or a background server, for example, the target video is split into a plurality of video segments according to video scenes, plots and the like of the target video, keyword extraction is performed on caption texts in each video segment to obtain keywords corresponding to each video segment, and keyword labeling is performed, for example, the keywords of the video segment a are labeled as follows: when the video segment a and the video segment B contain the same keyword, the video segment a may be considered to be the associated video of the video segment B, or the video segment B may be considered to be the associated video of the video segment a.

In actual implementation, the terminal extracts keywords from a subtitle text in the currently played video content in real time, matches the extracted keywords with target keywords (namely, marked keywords) corresponding to a pre-stored video clip, and takes the pre-stored video associated with the target keywords as an associated video and presents associated indication information of a video thumbnail including the associated video when the keywords are matched with the target keywords.

performing scene recognition processing on the currently played video content to obtain a scene corresponding to the currently played video content; matching the scene with a target scene associated with the pre-stored video, and taking the pre-stored video associated with the target scene as an associated video when the scene is matched with the target scene.

Here, when performing scene recognition processing on the currently played video content, a corresponding scene may be obtained by performing scene recognition on a currently played video picture, a subtitle text, and the like, for example, if a "red-bridge" scene appears in the currently played video picture, the "red-bridge" scene is matched with a target scene associated with a prestored video, and a video associated with the "red-bridge" is used as an associated video of the currently played video content, where the associated video may be a video clip associated with the scene in the target video, such as a highlight video clip occurring in the scene (e.g., "red-bridge"); a shot feature that may be associated with the scene of the target video, such as a highlight feature shot at the scene (e.g., "net bridge") when the target video is shot; a simulation video of a highlight video segment which can be generated in the scene place in the simulation target video of the scene place (such as 'net red bridge'); and the video can also be a wonderful video which is shot by net friends in the scene of 'net red bridge' and is unrelated to the target video, and the like.

In some embodiments, before the terminal plays the target video, before a server (e.g., a background server corresponding to the video playing client) corresponding to a client provided on the terminal pushes the video content of the target video to the client for playing, all contents of the target video, including the video content of the target video and associated videos, are stored in the server, where the associated videos are obtained by: identifying scenes, plots, subtitle texts, voice and the like of video content of a target video, determining associated videos with an association relation, and marking each video clip with an associated video when the associated videos are video clips of the target video, wherein for example, for a video clip A of the target video, the marked associated videos are as follows: video clip B, video clip C, video clip D; when the associated video is not a video clip of the target video, acquiring the associated video corresponding to a scene in the video clip of the target video, for example, for the video clip a of the target video, the marked associated video is: and associating the videos 1 and 2, and marking and storing the highlight video clips and the associated videos.

When a user requests to play a target video, a terminal sends a playing request for the target video to a server, the server acquires video content and mark information of the target video indicated by the video mark based on the video mark carried by the playing request and returns the video content and the mark information to the terminal, the terminal performs dotting on a playing position (playing time point) indicated by the mark information based on the mark information, and when the corresponding dotting is identified in the process of playing the video content in a playing interface, the association indication information of a video thumbnail containing the associated video is presented to indicate that the video corresponding to the video thumbnail is the associated video of the currently played video content.

In some embodiments, the terminal may present the association indication information for the video thumbnail containing the associated video by: presenting the associated function item corresponding to the currently played video content; and presenting the associated indication information of the video thumbnail containing the associated video in response to the triggering operation for the associated function item.

Here, in the process of playing the video content, when there is an associated video associated with the currently played video content, the associated function item corresponding to the currently played video content may be presented first, and when the associated function item is triggered by the user, the corresponding associated indication information is presented.

Referring to fig. 4, fig. 4 is a schematic view of a display interface of association indication information provided in an embodiment of the present application, in a process of playing video content, when an association video associated with currently played video content exists, an association function item 401 is presented in the play interface, and when a user triggers the association function item 401, a terminal responds to the triggering operation to present association indication information 402, where the association indication information 402 includes a video thumbnail of the association video.

In some embodiments, when there is an associated video associated with the currently playing video content, the terminal may present the association indication information containing the video thumbnail of the associated video by:

presenting a search function item corresponding to the currently played video content; and in response to the triggering operation for the search function item, performing associated video search on the currently played video content, and when an associated video associated with the currently played video content is searched, presenting associated indication information of a video thumbnail containing the associated video.

Here, when the terminal or the server does not automatically perform the associated video identification on the video content being played at that time, the search for the associated video may be implemented by the search function item.

Referring to fig. 5, fig. 5 is a schematic view of a display interface of association indication information provided in an embodiment of the present application, in a process of playing video content, a search function item 501 corresponding to the currently played video content is presented, and when a user triggers the search function item 501, and a terminal determines that an association video associated with the currently played video content exists in response to the triggering operation, the terminal presents association indication information 502.

In some embodiments, when the number of associated videos is plural, the terminal may present the association indication information of the video thumbnail containing the associated video by: displaying video thumbnails of all related videos in parallel in a playing interface; or, in the playing interface, the video thumbnails of the associated videos are displayed in a rolling mode; and taking the presented video thumbnail as the association indication information.

Here, when the number of associated videos is plural (two or more), that is, there are plural associated videos associated with the currently played video content, the video thumbnails for the respective associated videos are presented in parallel or scroll-presented in the play interface, and the presented video thumbnails are used as the association instruction information, so that the viewer can visually check which associated videos are present. In practical applications, the association indication information may further include text indication information corresponding to the video thumbnail, and is used to indicate that the video corresponding to the video thumbnail has an association relationship with the currently played video content.

Referring to fig. 6A-6B, fig. 6A-6B are schematic diagrams of display interfaces of association indication information provided in an embodiment of the present application, in fig. 6A, video content of a currently played target video is presented in a play interface a1, a video thumbnail a2, a video thumbnail A3, and a video thumbnail a4 are presented in parallel, text indication information a5 corresponding to these several video thumbnails is presented, and a2 to a5 are used as association indication information; in fig. 6B, presented in the play interface B1 is the video content of the currently played target video, and a plurality of video thumbnails are scroll-presented, and the scroll-presented plurality of video thumbnails are taken as the association indication information B2.

In some embodiments, when the associated video is a video clip in the target video and the number of the associated videos is multiple, the terminal may present the association indication information of the video thumbnail containing the associated video by: respectively acquiring the playing time of each associated video in the target video, wherein the playing time is the playing starting time or the playing ending time; and in the playing interface, presenting the video thumbnails of the associated videos in a mode that the playing time is before and the corresponding video thumbnails are before, and taking the presented video thumbnails as associated indication information.

Here, when the associated videos are video clips in the target video and the number of the associated videos is multiple, the corresponding video thumbnails may be sequentially presented in the playing interface according to the sequence of the playing time of each associated video. For example, in FIG. 6A, the associated video corresponding to video thumbnail A2 has a playtime that is earlier than the playtime of the associated video corresponding to video thumbnail A3, and thus, video thumbnail A2 is positioned in front of video thumbnail A3 in the content interface.

Referring to fig. 13, fig. 13 is a schematic flowchart of a video playing method according to an embodiment of the present application, and the steps shown in fig. 14 will be described.

Step 301: the server divides the target video into video segments to obtain a plurality of video segments.

Step 302: the server performs keyword tagging on each video clip.

Here, for a certain target video, such as an episode of a certain television play, a video segment library is first established by a background server, for example, the target video is split into a plurality of video segments according to scenes, plots, and the like, keyword extraction is performed on a caption text in each video segment to obtain a keyword corresponding to each video segment, and keyword labeling is performed, for example, the keyword label of the video segment a is: and the system comprises a Boro, a school and a conversation, simultaneously marks information such as playing time nodes and episode information of the video clips, and stores each video clip and corresponding marked information in a correlation manner to obtain a video clip library.

The video clip may be a hot clip of the target video, and the hot clip may represent a highlight clip of the target video determined based on big data statistics, for example, the video clip may be a highlight clip, a highlight scene clip, or the like of the target video.

In practical application, a video segment library may also be established manually, that is, associated video segments of scenarios, scenes and the like are stored in an associated manner manually, referring to fig. 14, fig. 14 is an association diagram of video segments provided in the embodiment of the present application, in fig. 14, a target video is divided into 8 segments, such as a video segment 1, a video segment 2, an …, a video segment 8 and the like, video segments having an association relationship with each other are stored in the video segment library, and for example, for a video segment 8, associated videos having an association relationship with the video segment 8 are a video segment 3 and a video segment 4 respectively.

Through the steps 301 to 302, a video segment library may be established, where a plurality of video segments and corresponding keyword tags are stored in the video segment library, or video segments having an association relationship are stored in the video segment library.

It should be noted that the above operations are also implemented by the terminal, and the video segment library is stored locally.

Step 303: and the terminal sends the playing progress to the server in the process of playing the video content of the target video in the playing interface.

Step 304: and the server extracts keywords from the subtitle text in the currently played video content based on the playing progress to obtain the keywords of the subtitle text.

Step 305: and the server matches the obtained keywords with target keywords of the pre-stored video clip.

Step 306: and when the key words are matched with the target key words, the server sends the association indication information to the terminal.

Here, the target keyword is a keyword of a mark corresponding to the video segment.

The server determines the video content currently being played based on the playing progress, and supposes that the currently played video content is a video clip A, the server matches the conversation content, the caption or the picture content of the video clip A in real time with the marked target keywords in the video clip library and only matches the played video clip, when 2 or more keywords are matched, the pre-stored video clip associated with the target keywords is used as the associated video, and the associated indication information is sent to the terminal; when only 1 keyword or no matched keyword exists, it is considered that there is no video segment in association with the currently played content.

Step 307: and the terminal presents the association indication information.

Here, the playing page presents the association indication information, where the association indication information is used to indicate that there is an associated video that is in an association relationship with the currently playing video content, for example, the associated video of the currently playing video clip a is: when a plurality of associated video clips exist, the video clip B can preferentially display the first video clips according to the number of the matched keywords, for example, the associated video of the currently played video clip a is: video clip B, video clip C, and video clip D.

Step 308: and when the triggering operation aiming at the association indication information is received, the terminal plays the associated video.

Here, when the user clicks the association indication prompt, if the currently played associated video of the video segment a has only one video segment B, the terminal responds to the click operation of the user to play the video segment B, and after the video segment B is played, the terminal returns to the video segment a to continue playing the subsequent video content.

When the user clicks the association indication prompt, if there are a plurality of associated videos of the currently played video segment a, if the associated videos of the currently played video segment a are: when the video clip B, the video clip C and the video clip D are played, the terminal responds to the clicking operation of the user and presents that the video clip B, the video clip C and the video clip D can be selected, when the user clicks the video clip B, the terminal responds to the selecting operation and plays the selected video clip B first, the video clip C, D is automatically played after the video clip B is played, and in the process of playing the associated video, the user can manually select to quit playing the associated video at any time and return to the video clip A to continue playing.

It should be noted that, in the process of playing the target video in the playing interface, if the scenario of the associated video is not automatically identified, the user may manually search to query whether there is a video segment in an association relationship with the currently played video content, for example, in the manual search, if there is a keyword matching, it is determined that there is a video segment in an association relationship with the currently played video content.

Through the method, the contents of all the video clips of the target video are organically connected and interacted by establishing the video clip library, so that a user can quickly and conveniently enjoy a plot, and meanwhile, the novel interaction also enables the video watching experience to be rich and interesting.
