As shown in fig. 3, the method for switching the playing page of the present embodiment includes the following steps S310 to S330:

step S310, a first playing page of the first video is displayed.

In this embodiment, the first video is a video currently being played, and the first video may be any type of video, such as a video of a movie, a video of a drama, or a medium video with a duration of about 15 minutes, and is not limited herein.

In this embodiment, as shown in fig. 1, the first playing page P1 is a page for playing a first video, that is, the first playing page P1 has a playing window of the first video, which is referred to as a first playing window in this embodiment, where the playing window is a window for playing a video by a player.

In this embodiment, the playing pages, including the first playing page and the second playing page, refer to page portions located in the display area of the terminal device.

Taking the terminal device 1000 as a mobile phone as an example, the display direction of the first playing page may be vertical or horizontal, that is, the first playing page P1 may be a vertical playing page as shown in fig. 5b, or a horizontal playing page as shown in fig. 9 a.

In some embodiments, the first playing page P1 may be a full-screen playing page of the first video, and the full-screen playing page may be as shown in fig. 5b or fig. 9a, that is, the first playing page only displays information related to the first video, including the first playing window W1 of the first video M1, and may also have barrage information of the first video, creator information and interaction information of the first video, and the like, but does not have information of other videos, so that the user may perform immersive viewing on the first playing page P1, thereby improving the viewing experience of the user.

Step S320, a first user input on a first playing page is received.

In the process that a user watches a first video on a first playing page, if browsing or watching other videos is needed, first user input can be executed on the first playing page according to a set operation mode so as to switch playing pages.

The first user input may be a click operation or a slide operation, etc. set by the user on the first playing page through the touch screen of the terminal device.

In some embodiments, the first playback page displays a switch operand for the user to perform the first user input. By setting a clear switching operation object for the user to operate, on one hand, clear operation prompt can be performed on the user, on the other hand, the accuracy of user input detection can be improved, and misjudgment is avoided. The switch operand may be any type of operand that a user may trigger a switch. In these embodiments, the receiving of the first user input on the first playing page in step S320 may include: a first user input to switch an operation object is received.

In some embodiments, the switching operation object is an operation object that appears in the first playing page without user triggering, for example, the switching operation object may always remain in the first playing page, or for example, the switching operation object may also appear in the first playing page automatically when a set condition is met, and instead of being called out by a user operation, the switching operation object is advantageous to shorten an operation link.

Step S330, switching the first playing page to a second playing page according to the received first user input.

In this embodiment, the second playing page not only displays the first video in the playing process, but also displays a second video different from the first video. The second playing page may display one second video or multiple second videos, which is not limited herein.

The first video M1 is in the playing process, which means that the first video M1 is in the first playing window, and it may be in a playing state or a pause playing state in the first playing window. For the first video M1 in the playing process, if the first video M1 is in the pause playing state, the user performs a trigger indicating to continue watching on the first playing window, and the player can be started to continue playing the first video M1.

In some embodiments, as shown in FIG. 5a, the second video may appear in a list of recommended videos for selection by the user. In other embodiments, as shown in FIG. 9b, the second video may also appear in the play window for play.

The second video is a video associated with the content of the first video or an object of the first video, and the object of the first video may be a person in the first video, an article in the first video, or the like, which is not limited herein.

In some embodiments, the first display page and the second display page may have the same display direction, so that after switching, the user does not need to adjust the terminal device to adapt to the display direction of the display page. For example, in the case where the display direction of the first play page is the vertical display as shown in fig. 5b, the switched second play page as shown in fig. 5a is also the vertical display. For another example, when the display direction of the first playback page is the landscape display as shown in fig. 9a, the second playback page after switching as shown in fig. 9b is also the landscape display.

In some embodiments, the first playing page P1 and the second playing page P2 may share the background layer, that is, in the switching process, only the content to be displayed in the content layer and the position of the displayed content in the display area need to be changed, which may quickly complete the switching without performing display refresh of the page.

step S710, displaying a first playing page of the first video at the set node.

In these embodiments, the first playing page is a playing page where the first video is played to a set node, and the set node may be a time node. The setting node can be selected according to the video content of the first video, the video content corresponding to the setting node can be a highlight segment in the comparative first video, a user may have a need to obtain related content at the node, and a branch video can be introduced to allow the user to know the related content at the node.

As shown in fig. 8, in the playing process of the first video M1, three setting nodes n1, n2, and n3 are set, when the first video M1 is played to any setting node, the first playing page P1 shown in fig. 9a is entered, at this time, the first playing page displays the switch operation object C1 shown in fig. 9a on the first playing window W1 of the first video, and the user can switch to the second playing page P2 shown in fig. 9b by clicking the switch operation object C1.

The switching operation object may display tag information on the second video content to be recommended, the tag information being associated with a playback object when the first video is played back to the setting node, and the playback object may be a person or an article. The label information may include at least one of text information and picture information. The text information may be a text description of the second video content, such as hot news, highlight moments, forward review, forward high-fire review, double-created stem clips, and the like. The picture information may be a key frame screenshot of the second video, and the like, which is not limited herein.

The switching operation object can also display information and the like about the watching permission of the second video, so that a user can determine whether the second video has corresponding permission or not, whether the corresponding permission needs to be opened or not, and the like.

In addition, the first display page P1 may further display indication information indicating an association relationship between the switching operation object C1 and the display object, so that the user can determine a person or an article to which the switching operation object C1 is directed according to the indication information. The indication information may be an indication mark such as an arrow pointing the playback object to the switching operation object C1, or may be embodied by switching the installation position of the switching operation object C1, for example, displaying the switching operation object C1 at a peripheral position adjacent to the playback object, and is not limited herein.

In step S720, a first user input to switch the operation object is received.

Step S730, according to the first user input, the first playing page is switched to the second playing page.

In some embodiments, as shown in fig. 9b, the second playing page P2 includes a first playing window W1 of the first video M1 and a second playing window W2 of the second video M2. In the second playing page P2, the first playing window W1 may be in a pause playing state, and the second playing window W2 is in a playing state.

In some embodiments, in order to provide a good viewing experience when the user views the second video, as shown in fig. 9a and 9b, the first playing window W1 is displayed in the second playing page P2 in a reduced size relative to the first playing page P1, that is, the size of the first playing window W1 in the first playing page P1 is larger than that in the second playing page P2, and the first playing window W1 is smaller than the second playing window W2.

In some embodiments, after the switching the first playing page to the second playing page in step S70, the playing page switching method may further include: and continuously playing a plurality of second videos in the second playing window W2.

In these embodiments, after the first playing page P1 shown in fig. 9a is switched to the second playing page P2 shown in fig. 9b, the second playing window W2 directly plays the first second video, and directly continues to play the second video when the playing is finished, until the playing of the video list related to the corresponding setting node is completed, which may reduce user operations.

In some embodiments, after the switching the first playing page to the second playing page in step S70, the playing page switching method may further include: receiving a third user input to the second play window; and switching the second video currently played in the second playing window into another second video according to the third user input.

In these embodiments, the user may switch the second video played in the second playing window by performing a third user input if the currently played second video is not of interest while viewing the second video through the second playing window. The third user input may be an up-down sliding input on the second playing page, and in a case where the second playing page provides a switching control of the second video, as shown in fig. 9b, the currently playing second video may be switched to the next second video by clicking the control marked as "next", or the currently playing second video may be switched to the previous second video by clicking the control marked as "previous", and the like.

In some embodiments, after the switching the first playing page to the second playing page in step S70, the playing page switching method may further include: receiving a fourth user input for the second play window W2; and displaying the second playing window in a full screen mode in the display area according to the fourth user input, and displaying the first playing window W1 on the second playing window W2 in an icon mode.

In these embodiments, as shown in fig. 9b, the first playing window W1 and the second playing window W2 are located at different positions of the display area at this time, for example, the first playing window W1 is reduced and displayed on the left side of the second playing window W2. At this time, if the user performs a fourth user input of playing the second playing window W2 in full screen, the second playing window W2 will be displayed in full screen in the display area, and the first playing window W1 will be displayed in the corner of the second playing window W2 in the form of icons with smaller size, as shown in fig. 9 c.

In some embodiments, after the switching the first playing page to the second playing page in step S70, the playing page switching method may further include: receiving a fifth user input to the first play window W1 at the second play page P2; and switching the second playing page P2 to the first playing page P1 according to the fifth user input, and continuing to play the first video from the set node.

In these embodiments, as shown in fig. 8, the user can switch to continue watching the first video M1 on the main line at any time on the branch line watching the second video. The fifth user input is, for example, a user input of clicking the first play window W1.

According to steps S710 to S730, as shown in fig. 8, the embodiments support that in the process of playing the first video of the main line on the first playing page P1, the setting node switches to the second playing page P2 to play the branch line video related to the setting node according to the user input, and in the process of playing the second video of the branch line on the second playing page, the embodiment can also return to the first playing page P1 at any time according to the user input to continue playing the first video. Therefore, in these embodiments, the user can quickly reach the peripheral content without exiting the watching of the first video, and can timely learn the related content to help better understand the first video of the main line, thereby forming the recommendation mode of the first video distribution branch line video along with the main line, so as to more effectively distribute and recommend the video content, and improve the recommendation conversion rate. In addition, whether the switching from the first playing page P1 shown in fig. 9a to the second playing page P2 shown in fig. 9b or the switching from the second playing page P2 back to the first playing page P1 shown in fig. 9a is a single operation trigger, the operation link is very short, which is beneficial to the consumption conversion of the video.
