Detailed Description

Exemplary embodiments of the present disclosure will be described in more detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. While exemplary embodiments of the present disclosure are shown in the drawings, it should be understood that the present disclosure may be embodied in various forms and should not be limited to the embodiments set forth herein. Rather, these embodiments are provided so that this disclosure will be thorough and complete, and will fully convey the scope of the disclosure to those skilled in the art.

Fig. 1 is a monitoring system of another playing process disclosed in an embodiment of the present application, including a monitoring end, a playing end, and a mobile terminal, where the monitoring end runs a monitoring service application, the playing end runs a playing service application and a playing application, the mobile terminal runs a mobile service application, and the mobile terminal is used to provide a hotspot connected to a network. Specifically, the mobile terminal is used for providing a hotspot of the access network of the playing terminal. It should be noted that the playback application may be an existing playback application. The playing service application can be a preconfigured Software Development Kit (SDK), the monitoring service application calls the SDK to achieve a monitoring function through information matched with the SDK, and the mobile service application configures a monitoring service client in advance.

The monitoring system shown in fig. 1 is applied to, but not limited to, a monitoring process of a playing flow of a monitoring service application running on a playing end, and the following takes a flow of monitoring an advertisement played outdoors as an example to further illustrate functions of the system shown in fig. 1.

Fig. 2 is a monitoring method for a play flow disclosed in an embodiment of the present application, including the following steps:

s21, the monitoring service application acquires a monitoring item matched with the SDK configured in advance in the playing end.

In this embodiment, specific content of the monitoring item is not limited, because the monitoring is implemented by the preconfigured SDK, and the monitoring item is only a monitoring item that can be implemented by the SDK, that is, a monitoring item that matches with a function of the preconfigured SDK.

Optionally, the monitoring service application may display a user interaction interface, and obtain the monitoring item based on information input by the user at the user interaction interface. For example, a pre-configured monitoring item option is displayed in the user interaction interface, and the option selected by the user is determined to be the monitoring item.

And S22, the monitoring service application generates a monitoring code matched with the SDK.

Wherein the monitoring code comprises a parameter delivery code and a trigger code. The parameter transfer code is used for indicating information of an object to be played as a playing parameter, and the trigger code is used for triggering operation. The result of the operation is used to obtain data for the monitoring item.

In this embodiment, the object to be played takes an advertisement material as an example, and the information of the object to be played may be a URL of a storage space for storing the advertisement material. In this step, the parameter delivery code may be the URL, and the trigger code is a code written after the URL for triggering the operation.

It can be understood that, a monitoring code template may be configured in the monitoring system in advance, and after the monitoring item is obtained, the monitoring item is written into a corresponding position in the template to form the monitoring code.

Of course, other information, such as information of the advertisement delivery party, and information of the time period, city, etc. of the advertisement playing may also be written in the monitoring code, as long as the monitoring code matches the SDK, that is, the protocol of the SDK is followed. The advertisement slot refers to a playing time at the playing end, and the advertisement slot indication information is used for indicating the playing time of the object to be played in the playing end, for example, playing at the playing end at a time such as power-on, power-off, and the like.

S23, the monitoring service application determines whether to establish network communication with the playing end, if not, S24 is executed, and if so, S210 is executed.

It should be noted that, the method for determining whether to establish network communication with the playback end by the monitoring service application is referred to in the prior art, for example, looking up whether to include the playback point from a network connection configuration table, where the network connection configuration table includes information of each playback end that establishes network communication with the monitoring service application.

And S24, monitoring the service application to generate a task.

In this embodiment, the task includes parameter information uniquely indicating the to-be-monitored playing terminal, for example, the geographic position of the to-be-monitored playing terminal, the playing duration of the to-be-played object, the physical parameters of the playing screen, and the like, and the task further includes configuration information, for example, parameter adjustment information, monitoring result operation information, reset operation information, and the like.

And S25, the monitoring service application sends the task to the monitoring service client.

And S26, the monitoring service client accesses the network through the hotspot and then sends the task to the SDK.

In this embodiment, the hot spot is provided by the mobile terminal. And after the mobile terminal opens the hot spot, the SDK accesses the network through the hot spot. It should be noted that, the survey staff can know the address position of the playing end according to the parameter information, and carry the mobile terminal to the playing end attachment area, and when the mobile terminal is close to the playing end, the hotspot is automatically or manually opened, where the hotspot opening method refers to the prior art.

And S27, the SDK receives the task after accessing the network through the hotspot and verifies whether the parameter information of the playing end to be monitored is consistent with the parameter information of the playing end running the SDK.

Specifically, the parameter information of the playing end running the SDK is configured in the SDK in advance, or the SDK acquires the parameter information of the playing end running the SDK in real time according to the task. For example, whether the physical parameters of the playing screen included in the verification task are consistent with the physical parameters of the playing screen configured by the playing end running the SDK is verified.

It should be noted that the SDK is configured to automatically access the network through the hot spot when the hot spot is detected.

And S28, if the SDK determines that the parameter information of the playing end to be monitored is consistent with the parameter information of the playing end running the SDK, sending a monitoring request instruction to the monitoring service application.

In this embodiment, the monitoring request instruction is used to request a monitoring code.

It can be understood that, when the parameter information of the playing end to be monitored is consistent with the parameter information of the playing end running the SDK, the playing end to be monitored indicating the task indication is the playing end running the SDK, so that the security of data transmission is improved, and the stream Cheng Chucuo monitoring caused by an instruction sending error is avoided.

And S29, the monitoring service application receives the monitoring request instruction and executes S210.

S210, the monitoring service application sends the monitoring codes to the playing service application and the playing application of the playing end.

Optionally, the monitoring service application may further encrypt the trigger code in the monitoring code to form a ciphertext, and then send the ciphertext to the playing service application and the playing application. Wherein, the ciphertext can be analyzed by the SDK in the playing service application, but not by the playing application. That is, the playback application may only parse the parameter passing code, and may not parse the trigger code.

S211, the playing application transmits the codes by running the parameters in the monitoring codes, plays the objects to be played, and the SDK executes the operation triggered by the triggering codes in the monitoring codes.

S212, the SDK acquires a monitoring result according to the operation result.

It should be noted that, in the case that the monitoring service application establishes network communication with the playback end, the playback application and the SDK run by the playback end receive the monitoring code through the network communication. And under the condition that the monitoring service application and the playing end do not establish network communication, the playing application and the SDK run by the playing end receive the monitoring code through the network hotspot.

S213, the SDK judges whether the network environment meets the conditions, if so, S214 is executed, and if not, S215 is executed.

Specifically, whether the network environment meets the condition or not can be polled in real time, and whether the network environment meets the condition or not can be periodically judged.

The specific implementation manner of the SDK determining whether the network environment meets the condition may refer to the prior art, which is not described herein again.

S214, the SDK sends the monitoring result to the monitoring service application.

Optionally, the SDK may encrypt the monitoring result to form a ciphertext, and the ciphertext may not be parsed by the playing application. And sending the ciphertext of the monitoring result to the monitoring service application.

S215, the SDK stores the monitoring result locally and returns to execute S213.

Therefore, the SDK can send the monitoring result to the monitoring service application when the network satisfies the condition, but the network does not continuously satisfy the condition, and in this case, the monitoring service application cannot receive the monitoring result.

S216, the monitoring service application responds to the fact that the monitoring result is not received within the time length threshold value, and sends the task to the monitoring service client.

Specifically, the monitoring service application starts a timer after S210, and when the timing duration of the timer exceeds a preset duration threshold, the monitoring result is still not received, and it is determined that the playback end is off-network.

And S217, the monitoring service client accesses the network through the hotspot and then sends the task to the SDK.

S218, the SDK receives the task after accessing the network through the hotspot and verifies whether the parameter information of the playing end to be monitored, which is indicated by the task, is consistent with the parameter information of the playing end running the SDK.

The specific implementation process of S216 to S218 is referred to in steps S24 to S27.

And S219, if the SDK determines that the parameter information of the playing end to be monitored is consistent with the parameter information of the playing end running the SDK, the monitoring result is sent to the monitoring service application after the hot spot is accessed into the network.

It should be noted that, if the SDK determines that the parameter information of the playback end to be monitored is inconsistent with the parameter information of the playback end running the SDK, the process returns to step S213.

And S220, updating the configuration by the SDK according to the configuration information.

Specifically, the preset parameters of the SDK are updated according to the parameter adjustment information, the monitoring result is subjected to operations such as instant deletion, encrypted storage, delayed deletion and the like according to the monitoring result operation information, and the SDK is reset according to the reset operation information.

And S221, the monitoring service application sends the monitoring result to a preset server.

The preset server may be a provider of an object to be played, such as a server of an advertiser, specifically, a device for sending an advertisement material by the advertiser. And the monitoring result is sent to the provider of the object to be played, so that the provider of the object to be played can conveniently check the monitoring result. Alternatively, the provisioning server may be a preconfigured other device unrelated to the delivery of advertising material, such as a server monitoring the operation of a service application.

As can be seen from the above flow, the flow shown in fig. 5 has the following beneficial effects:

1. the SDK is configured in advance at the playing end, and the interaction between the monitoring service application and the playing service application can trigger the SDK to monitor the playing flow of the object to be played and obtain the monitoring result. Compared with the prior art that only the playing times can be obtained, the SDK is configured in advance, so that the possibility of obtaining monitoring results from more angles is provided, and the monitoring function is richer. When the network environment does not satisfy the condition, the monitoring result can be stored locally, so that the possibility of the loss of the monitoring result caused by poor network environment can be reduced.

2. Under the condition that the trigger code and the monitoring result in the monitoring code are both ciphertexts, the data security can be ensured, and the data monitored by the monitoring service application is unknown by the playing application, so that the objectivity and the reliability of the monitoring result can be improved.

3. The SDK mode has high flexibility and the monitoring party has high initiative.

4. The monitoring service application issues a task to a monitoring service client running in the mobile terminal when determining that the playing terminal is not networked, and the task comprises parameter information which only indicates the playing terminal, so that a function of assisting in finding the playing terminal is provided, for example, the parameter information comprises geographical position information of the playing terminal, which is equivalent to providing a map addressing function, the difficulty of finding the client by a person who is in charge of the periodical is reduced to the maximum extent, and the efficiency is improved.

5. The playing end carries out information interaction with the monitoring service application through the network hotspot, and the playing process monitoring of the playing end which is not connected with the network or disconnected due to the accident is realized.

6. And after the SDK determines that the information of the task is consistent with the information of the playing end running the SDK, the monitoring result is sent to the monitoring service application, so that data sending errors are avoided, and the data safety is improved.

In conclusion, the scheme well solves the problem of real-time monitoring of the non-real-time networking playing end, enlarges the monitoring range of the playing process, and further, because the mobile terminal belongs to the real-time networking terminal, the mobile terminal can also acquire real-time monitoring data and upload the real-time monitoring data to the monitoring end, for example, upload a real-time playing image of a screen of the playing end or a real-time monitoring diary input by a publisher, thereby further improving the monitoring flexibility.

The following will further exemplify the functions of the above system by taking the process of monitoring the advertisement playing outdoors as an example.

The playback application in the monitoring system of the playback flow shown in fig. 1 is set outdoors. In combination with an outdoor scene, in this embodiment, the monitoring item includes information, preset content, and playing times of the playing device of the object to be played.

Therefore, in the present embodiment, the SDK is configured in advance with an operation and a function for acquiring data of the monitoring item.

Fig. 3 is a flowchart of another method for monitoring a playback process, which includes the following steps:

s31, the monitoring service application acquires a monitoring item matched with the SDK configured in advance in the playing end.

Specifically, the monitoring service application receives a schedule of monitoring inputs from advertisers. The monitoring schedule table includes monitoring items, and optionally, may further include but is not limited to: the information of the advertiser, the advertisement playing time period, the advertisement playing city and the like. It is understood that the monitoring item list in the monitoring schedule table may be configured in advance, and the monitoring items in the configured monitoring item list are matched with the SDK, that is, the SDK may implement monitoring, and the advertiser may select the monitoring items from the preconfigured monitoring item list.

And S32, the monitoring service application generates a monitoring code matched with the SDK according to the monitoring item.

Specifically, the monitoring service application writes the information in the monitoring schedule table into a monitoring code template, and encapsulates the information according to the SDK-matched protocol to form a monitoring code including a parameter transfer code and a trigger code.

In this embodiment, the monitoring code may include other codes besides the parameter passing code and the trigger code, for example, a code indicating a specific operation mode of the operation, and further, the specific operation mode includes: the interval duration of the screenshot, the storage path of the screenshot and the like.

And S33, the monitoring service application sends the monitoring code to the playing terminal.

It should be noted that, the method for sending the monitoring code to the playing terminal by the monitoring service application in both the networking state and the non-networking state is described in the above embodiments.

And S34, the playing application transmits the codes according to the parameters and plays the advertisement materials.

Specifically, the playing application obtains the URL in the parameter transfer code, then obtains the advertisement material (such as an advertisement video or an advertisement picture) by accessing the URL, and plays the advertisement material.

And S35, the SDK triggers the acquisition of the information of the playing equipment by acquiring the trigger code in the monitoring code, captures the playing screen, stores the captured image and counts the playing times.

It can be understood that the SDK may call an interface of the playback application to perform screenshot, and store the intercepted image in a path that is pre-configured by the SDK or indicated by the monitoring code.

And S36, processing the screenshot by the SDK to obtain preset content indication information.

The preset content indication information indicates that the screenshot contains or does not contain preset content. The specific manner of identifying whether the screenshot contains the preset content may be referred to in the prior art.

And S37, sending the monitoring result (namely the single monitoring result) of each advertisement material playing flow to the monitoring service application by the SDK according to the pre-configured sending time.

The sending time can be determined according to the exposure time of the advertisement material after the advertisement material is played, for example, within a preset time after the advertisement material is exposed for the first time. Specifically, the playing service application may be configured in advance according to the actual scene where the playing end is located and the requirement.

It can be understood that the single monitoring result is sent after the advertisement material is played, which is beneficial to ensuring that the advertisement material is completely played.

The single monitoring results include: information of the playing device used for the playing (such as device identification), preset content indication information of the playing, and a count value of the playing (the count value is used to indicate that the playing is the second time).

Specifically, the SDK identifies a replaceable macro field in the monitoring code, replaces the corresponding macro field with the monitoring result, and then sends the replaced monitoring code to the monitoring service application.

And S38, the monitoring service application summarizes a plurality of single monitoring results according to the preset dimension to obtain the monitoring results.

In this embodiment, the preset dimensions may include, but are not limited to: advertisers, and cities in which the advertisements are played. As previously mentioned, this dimensional information may come from a supervisor schedule. That is, in this embodiment, the monitoring service application summarizes the monitoring results of the advertisement played by an advertiser in a city.

Optionally, in this embodiment, the monitoring result may further include a screenshot. Namely, the obtained screenshot is also used as one of the monitoring results. Specifically, the screenshot obtained by the single monitoring may be sent to the monitoring service application in the single monitoring result, or the screenshot obtained by each single monitoring may be sent to the monitoring service application together, and the monitoring service application summarizes the screenshot (for example, a corresponding relationship with the single monitoring result is established).

The purpose of adding the screenshot in the monitoring result is to increase the reliability of the monitoring result, namely, the screenshot serves as the basis of the monitoring result, so that the monitoring result can be verified, and the subsequent verification of the monitoring result through inquiring the screenshot is facilitated.

And S39, the monitoring service application establishes a corresponding relation between the monitoring result and the object to be played.

And S310, the monitoring service application sends the monitoring result and the corresponding relation to a preset server.

The specific form of the preset server is as described above, and is not described herein again.

And S311, after the SDK confirms that the monitoring result is successfully sent, deleting the monitoring result.

The purpose of S311 is to free up storage space. The specific implementation manner for confirming that the monitoring result is successfully sent may be referred to in the prior art, and is not described herein again.

The flow shown in fig. 3 has the following beneficial effects:

1. the method and the device can monitor the playing equipment used in the advertisement playing process, the playing times of the advertisements and whether the advertisements are played with preset contents, so that the monitored items are richer. Therefore, the method has guiding significance for the advertisement putting and value evaluation, and is beneficial to quantifying the advertisement putting effect. And the counterfeit of the playing end can be prevented, and the standard of the advertisement putting behavior is facilitated.

2. Due to the split design of the monitoring service application and the playing end, the playing end is more flexibly deployed and is suitable for various scenes.

It should be noted that the foregoing embodiment merely illustrates an optional specific implementation procedure provided in the embodiment of the present application, and the present application further includes other specific implementation procedures, for example, S27 to S28 or S216 to S219 are optional execution steps, and for example, a specific method for executing S211 by using an SDK includes multiple steps, which may specifically refer to the prior art. For another example, the specific content of the monitoring item may be configured or updated according to the preset monitoring requirement.

In summary, the monitoring method for a playback flow disclosed in the embodiment of the present application is summarized as the flow shown in fig. 5, and the monitoring method for a playback flow illustrated in fig. 5 is applied to a monitoring system provided in the embodiment of the present application, where the monitoring system provided in the embodiment of the present application includes a monitoring service application, a playback service application, and a mobile service application. The software development kit SDK is pre-configured in the playing service application, and the monitoring service client is pre-configured in the mobile service application.

The following further explains the function of the monitoring system of the playing process based on fig. 5, and as shown in fig. 5, the method includes:

s41, the monitoring service application acquires a monitoring item matched with the SDK configured in advance in the playing end.

And S42, generating a monitoring code matched with the SDK by the monitoring service application.

Wherein the monitoring code comprises a parameter delivery code and a trigger code. The parameter transfer code is used for indicating information of an object to be played as a playing parameter, and the trigger code is used for triggering operation. The result of the operation is used to obtain data for the monitoring item.

S43, the monitoring service application determines whether to establish network communication with the playing terminal.

In this embodiment, the task includes parameter information used for indicating the playing end, and the mobile terminal is used for providing a hotspot for accessing the network for the playing end.

And S45, the SDK receives the task after accessing the network through the hotspot and sends a monitoring request instruction.

In this embodiment, the hot spot is provided by the mobile terminal. After the mobile terminal starts the hot spot, the SDK accesses the network through the hot spot and receives a task sent by the monitoring service client.

It should be noted that, after the SDK determines that network communication is not established with the monitoring service application in advance, it automatically detects whether there is a hotspot that can access the network.

And S46, if the monitoring service application determines to establish network communication with the playing terminal or receives a monitoring request instruction, sending the monitoring code to the playing terminal.

And S47, receiving the monitoring code matched with the SDK by the SDK, and executing the operation triggered by the trigger code in the monitoring code.

And S48, the SDK acquires a monitoring result according to the operation result.

It should be noted that, in the case that the monitoring service application establishes network communication with the playback end, the playback application and the SDK run by the playback end receive the monitoring code through the network communication. And under the condition that the monitoring service application and the playing end do not establish network communication, the playing application and the SDK run by the playing end receive the monitoring code through the network hotspot.

And S49, sending the monitoring result to the monitoring service application by the SDK under the condition that the network environment meets the conditions.

S410, the monitoring service application receives the monitoring result.

The monitoring service application acquires a monitoring item matched with a Software Development Kit (SDK) pre-configured in a playing end, generates a monitoring code according to the monitoring item, and sends the monitoring code to the playing end, because the monitoring code comprises a parameter transfer code for indicating information of an object to be played as a playing parameter and a trigger code for triggering operation, the playing end plays the object to be played by running the playing application playing parameter transfer code, executes operation by running the SDK, acquires the monitoring result according to the operation result, and sends the monitoring result to the monitoring service application under the condition that the network environment meets the condition.
