Description
RELATED APPLICATION
This application claims priority to Chinese Patent Application No. 201310452594.5, “METHOD, APPARATUS, AND TERMINAL FOR OBTAINING VIDEO DATA, ” filed on September 27, 2013, which is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety.

But it will be apparent to one skilled in the art that the subject matter may be practiced without these specific details.

To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the present application more comprehensible, the following further describes the embodiments of the present application in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.
The embodiment of the present application provides a method for obtaining video data. The method is applicable to a social network application and installed on a terminal with a capturing function. The terminal includes, but is not limited to, a mobile phone, a computer, a tablet, and the like. A specific form of the terminal is not limited in this embodiment. Referring to FIG. 1, the method provided in this embodiment includes:
A t step 101, a plurality of video segments is recorded successively, each video segment is marked with a respective identifier, and then it is determined whether a total time length of the plurality of video segments exceeds a pre-set threshold.
In some embodiments, before the step of successively recording a plurality of video segments, the following steps may be performed:
configuring a timer with a value equal to the pre-set threshold;
subtracting time length of the video segment from the value of the timer once the video segment is recorded;
determining whether the value of the timer equals to or less than zero; and
when the value of the timer equals to or less than zero, instructing that the total time length of the plurality of video segments exceeds the pre-set threshold.
At step 102, the video recording is stopped if the total time length of the plurality of video segments exceeds the pre-set threshold. In addition, the plurality of video segments are integrated into one video according to a predefined order.
In some embodiments, the step of integrating the plurality of video segments into one video according to a predefined order includes:
reading the plurality of identifiers that correspond to the plurality of video segments, respectively;
re-organizing the plurality of video segments into a sequence based on sorting of the plurality of identifiers; and
aggregating the re-organized plurality of video segments into the one video.
Yet in some embodiments, the step of integrating the plurality of video segments into one video according to a predefined order includes:
reading a plurality of recording times that correspond to the plurality of video segments, respectively;
re-organizing the plurality of video segments into a sequence based on sorting of the plurality of recording times; and
aggregating the re-organized plurality of video segments into the one video.
In some embodiments, after the step of integrating the plurality of video segments into one video according to a predefined order, the following steps may be performed:
prompting whether to share the video data obtained after combination; and
if receiving an indication about sharing the video data obtained after combination, transmitting the video data obtained after combination to another terminal.
In the method provided in this embodiment, video data is successively captured for multiple time periods, and the video data obtained by successively capturing for the multiple time periods is combined into one piece of video data. In this way, one piece of video data is obtained by selectively capturing for multiple time periods, and content of captured video data can be selected at will. Therefore, the manner of obtaining video data is extended, and redundancy of obtained video data is decreased, thereby improving user experience.
With reference to the content in Embodiment 2, the embodiment of the present application provides a method for obtaining video data. The method is applicable to a social network application and installed in a terminal with a capturing function. The terminal includes, but is not limited to, a mobile phone, a computer, a tablet, and the like. A specific form of the terminal is not limited in this embodiment. Referring to FIG. 2, a procedure of the method provided in this embodiment includes:
At step 201, successively capturing video data for multiple time periods, and determining, each time period for which video data is captured, whether a total time length of the video data obtained by successively capturing for the multiple times reaches a preset time length.
Specifically, before video data is captured, the preset time length of capturing video data may be set in advance, for example, by a provider that provides a video data obtaining service. Alternatively, if video data is obtained in a social network application, a corresponding operation interface may be provided in the social network application, so that a user of the social network application can set the preset time length by using the operation
interface. The time length set by the user is used as a determined preset time length of capturing video data. In a practical operation, the preset time length of capturing video data may also be set by selecting other methods, which is not specifically limited in this embodiment. Besides, the determined preset time length is also not limited in this embodiment, and includes, but is not limited to, 6 seconds, 8 seconds, or the like.
No matter which manner is used and how long the preset time length is, after the preset time length is determined, a timer may be set according to the determined preset time length. An initial value of the timer may be the determined preset time length. When video data is successively captured for multiple times in the application corresponding to the social network, the value of the timer is subtracted by a time length of video data obtained each time video data is captured, until the value of the timer is subtracted to zero. Then, it may be determined whether the total time length of the video data obtained by successively capturing for the multiple times reaches the preset time length.
Therefore, before the step of successively capturing video data for multiple times, the following steps may be performed:
setting the preset time length on the timer, where the value of the timer decreases progressively according to a time length of capturing video data, and is cleared when the total time length of capturing video data reaches the preset time length; and
the step of determining, for each time capturing video data, whether a total time length of the video data obtained by successively capturing for the multiple times reaches a preset time length includes:
determining, for each time capturing video data, whether the value of the timer is cleared; and when the value of the timer is cleared, determining that the total time length of the video data obtained by successively capturing for the multiple times reaches the preset time length.
A case in which the determined preset time length is 6 seconds (s) is used as an example. In this case, the initial value of the timer may be set to 6 sec. Next, capturing video data is successively performed multiple times. If a time length of capturing video data for the first time is 2.5 sec, the value of the timer is subtracted by 2.5 sec. At this point, the value of the timer is 3.5. If a time length of capturing video data for the second time is 2 sec,
the value of the timer is subtracted by 2 sec. At this time, the value of the timer is 1.5 sec, which means that a remained capturing time length is 1.5 sec. When video data is captured again and a time length reaches 1.5 sec, the value of the timer is subtracted by 1.5 sec. At this time, the value of the timer is 0, i. e. , the timer is cleared. In this case, it may be determined that a total time length of video data obtained by successively capturing for three times reaches the preset time length. Therefore, capturing of video data is stopped.
If a time length of capturing video data is not limited, the preset time length may be set to a larger value, so that capturing can be successively performed for multiple times to obtain complete video data expected by a user, and capturing is not stopped in the capturing process when the preset time length is reached. In addition, multiple manners are available for triggering capturing of video data each time, and may include, but is not limited to, detecting an operation of pressing a capturing button. If it is detected that the capturing button is pressed, a signal of capturing video data is obtained, and capturing of video data is performed accordingly. Also, multiple manners are available for stopping capturing of video data each time, and may include, but is not limited to, detecting an operation of pressing a capturing stopping button. If it is detected that the capturing stopping button is pressed, a signal of stopping current capturing of video data is obtained, and capturing of video data is stopped. The capturing button and the capturing stopping button may be two buttons set on the terminal. In addition, there may be other manners of triggering capturing of video data and of triggering stopping capturing video data, which are not specifically limited in this embodiment.
At step 202, if the total time length of the video data obtained by successively capturing for the multiple times reaches the preset time length, capturing of video data is stopped.
Specifically, when it is determined that the total time length of the video data obtained by successively capturing for the multiple times reaches the preset time length, the application corresponding to the social network may stop capturing of video data. When stopping capturing of video data, the application corresponding to the social network may display related prompt information to notify the user that capturing of video data ends. For example, a dialog box may be displayed on the interface of the social network application,
and information displayed in the dialog box is used to notify the user that capturing of video data ends. Other manners may also be selected to prompt that capturing of video data ends. The specific prompt manner is not limited in this embodiment.
Further, when the total time length of the video data is close to the preset time length, in the method provided in this embodiment, corresponding prompt information may further be displayed to prompt the user that the capturing process will end soon. A manner of displaying the prompt information and content of the displayed prompt information are also not specifically limited in this embodiment.
It should be noted that in some embodiments, when the total time length of the video data obtained by successively capturing for the multiple times reaches the preset time length, capturing of video data is stopped, so as to obtain one piece of video data in a subsequent step. Yet in some other embodiments, when it is applied to the social network application, the method may further provide a related operation interface through which the user can trigger an operation to stop capturing of video data. Specifically, a manner of providing the related operation interface by the social network application is not specifically limited in this embodiment, and includes, but is not limited to, displaying a corresponding operation option on an interaction interface provided by the application corresponding to the social network, and determining, by detecting a selection operation of the user on the operation option, whether to stop capturing of video data.
The interaction interface is a channel for information exchange between the user and the terminal (a computer, a notebook, a mobile terminal, a mobile phone, or the like) . The user uses the interaction interface to input information on the terminal and perform an operation. The terminal uses the interaction interface to provide information to the user for reading, analyzing, and determining by the user. The interaction interface in this embodiment includes a home page displayed when software or an application is opened, and interaction interfaces entered after various function buttons and entries are clicked. Interaction interfaces that appear at different levels or due to different triggering are different. Interaction interfaces entered due to a same triggering or from a same entry are the same regardless of whether reading content on the interfaces changes. Different interfaces generally mean that
interaction interfaces at a certain level and displayed to a user are different in the interaction interfaces themselves, and do not mean that the interaction interfaces are different in content.
For example, a "combine" option is displayed on an interaction interface provided by the application corresponding to the social network. After obtaining two pieces of video data by successively capturing video data for two times, where a total time length of the two pieces of video data has not reached a preset time length yet, if it is detected that the user selects the "combine" button by a clicking operation, an indication of stopping capturing video data is obtained, and the two pieces of video data obtained by capturing before is used as video data obtained by successively capturing for multiple times, and a combining operation is performed in a subsequent step.
In addition to the manner of displaying a corresponding operation option on the interaction interface provided by the social network application, other manners may also be used, which are not specifically limited in this embodiment.
At step 203, the video data obtained by successively capturing for the multiple times is combined into one piece of video data, and use the video data obtained after combination as obtained video data.
In this step, the step of combining the video data obtained by successively capturing for the multiple times into one piece of video data includes, but is not limited to, the following two manners:
A first combining technique may include combining, according to a time sequence of capturing video data, the video data obtained by successively capturing for the multiple times into one piece of video data.
In the first combining technique, multiple different pieces of video data are obtained after successively capturing for multiple times. Because different pieces of video data are specifically captured at different times in a capturing process, the multiple pieces of video data obtained after successively capturing for the multiple times are sorted according to the specific capturing times. Then, the sorted multiple pieces of video data are combined into one piece of video data, and the video data obtained after combination is used as obtained video data. The manner of sorting, according to the specific capturing times, the multiple
pieces of video data obtained after successively capturing for the multiple times is not specifically limited in this embodiment. For example, the multiple pieces of video data may be sorted according to the capturing times in an early-to-late sequence, or in a late-to-early sequence.
Specifically, when the multiple pieces of video data are combined into one piece of video data, the multiple pieces of video data may be combined according to specific file formats of the video data. The method of combining the video data obtained by successively capturing for the multiple times into one piece of video data is not specifically limited in this embodiment.
For example, three pieces of video data are obtained after successively capturing for three times. A first piece is video data V_1 of 2.5 sec, a second piece is video data V_2 of 2 sec, and a third piece is video data V_3 of 1.5 sec. Specific capturing times of the three pieces of video data are respectively 10: 31 am, 10: 27 am, and 10: 40 am in a same day. Accordingly, the three pieces of video data are sorted according to the specific capturing times in an early-to-late sequence, and a final sorted sequence is V_2, V_1, and V_3. Next, the three pieces of video data may be combined in the foregoing sequence, and video data obtained after combination is used as obtained video data.
A second combining technique may include displaying identifiers corresponding to the video data obtained by successively capturing for the multiple times, and combining the video data obtained by successively capturing for the multiple times into one piece of video data according to how the user sorts the identifiers corresponding to the video data obtained by successively capturing for the multiple times.
Specifically, for each time a piece of video data is captured, an identifier may be set for the piece of video data. Different pieces of video data correspond to different identifiers. After video data is successively captured for multiple times, identifiers corresponding to video data obtained by successively capturing for the multiple times may be displayed on an interface. A social network application may provide a related operation interface. A user may sort, by using the related operation interface, the identifiers corresponding to the video data obtained by successively capturing for the multiple times. Finally, the social network application combines, according to how the user sorts the
identifiers, the video data obtained by successively capturing for the multiple times into one piece of video data, and uses video data obtained after combination as obtained video data.
For example, a user obtains three pieces of video data after successively capturing video three times with a touch screen mobile phone. A first piece is video data V_1 of 2.5 sec, a second piece is video data V_2 of 2 sec, and a third piece is video data V_3 of 1.5 sec. Identifiers of the three pieces of video data are respectively V_1, V_2, and V_3. The identifiers on an interface and corresponding to the video data obtained by successively capturing video three times are shown in FIG. 3. The user may sort icons corresponding to the three identifiers displayed on the interface shown in FIG. 3, so that the identifiers corresponding to the video data obtained by successively capturing for three times are sorted. A final sorting result is shown in FIG. 4. It can be known from FIG. 4 that the sorting result is V_3, V_1, and V_2. Then, a first application may combine, according to the foregoing sequence, the video data, V_3, V_2, and V_1, obtained by successively capturing for three times into one piece of video data.
Further, after the step of combining the video data obtained by successively capturing video multiple times into one piece of video data, the following steps may be performed:
prompting whether to share the video data obtained after the combination; and
if an indication to share the combined video data is obtained, transmitting, by using an application corresponding to a social network, the combined video data to another terminal.
Specifically, after obtaining the combined video data, the social network application may issue prompt information to prompt a user whether to share the combined video data, for example, a dialog box or a pop-up window may be used, which is not specifically limited in this embodiment. After receiving the prompt information, the user may select according to the prompt information whether to share the combined video data. The indication about sharing the combined video data is obtained by detecting a selection result of the user, and a sharing operation is performed according to the indication. A case in which the method provided in this embodiment is applied to a social network application is still used as an example. After obtaining the indication about sharing the combined video
data, the social network application may transmit the combined video data to a corresponding terminal according to sharing destination information included in the indication. Specific content of the sharing destination information included in the indication is not limited in this embodiment, and includes, but is not limited to, a user nickname, an account number, and the like registered by the user in the application corresponding to the social network. Objects that shares others' video data and whose video data is shared by others may be users registered in applications corresponding to a same social network, and may also be users registered in applications corresponding to different social networks. That is, the combined video data obtained may be shared on an application platform corresponding to a same social network, or on application platforms corresponding to different social networks. A specific sharing manner and scenario are not limited in this embodiment.
For example, a terminal A is associated with an account number A1 registered by a user A in an application corresponding to a first social network, a terminal B is associated with an account number B registered by a user B in the application corresponding to the first social network, the terminal A is further associated with an account number A2 registered by the user A in an application corresponding to a second social network, and a terminal C is associated with an account number C registered by a user C in the application corresponding to the second social network; and an identifier of user A in the application corresponding to the first social network is A1, an identifier of user B in the application corresponding to the first social network is B, an identifier of user A in the application corresponding to the second social network is A2, and an identifier of user C in the application corresponding to the second social network is C.
After obtaining the combined video data in the application corresponding to the first social network; terminal A detects that user A selects the identifier B corresponding to user B on an interaction interface provided by the application corresponding to the first social network; and detects that user A selects a sharing option by using an interaction interface provided by the application corresponding to the social network, terminal A then determines that the combined video data needs to be shared with a terminal corresponding to identifier B. Therefore, terminal A sends the combined video data and identifier B to a server of the application corresponding to the first social network. After finding that the terminal corresponding to identifier B is terminal B, the server forwards, to terminal B, the combined
video data sent by terminal A. In this way, the combined video data obtained by terminal A is shared with user B corresponding to terminal B.
In another embodiment, after terminal A obtains the combined video data in the application corresponding to the first social network, and detects that user A selects the sharing option on the interaction interface provided by the application corresponding to the first social network. Terminal A then displays, on the interaction interface provided by the application corresponding to the social network, applications with which the video data can be shared. The applications with which the video data can be shared include the application corresponding to the second social network. After detecting that user A selects the application corresponding to the second social network, terminal A displays a friend list of user A in the application corresponding to the second social network. User C is displayed in the friend list. After detecting that user A selects identifier C corresponding to user C, terminal A sends the video data obtained after combination and identifier C to a server of the application corresponding to the second social network. After finding that a terminal corresponding to identifier C is terminal C, the server forwards, to terminal C, the combined video data sent by terminal A. In this way, the video data obtained by terminal A is shared with user C corresponding to terminal C.
It should be noted that the two examples used in the foregoing are merely exemplary for describing the sharing process. Besides the foregoing two sharing manners, other sharing manners may also be used, which are not specifically limited in this embodiment.
In the method provided in this embodiment, video data is successively captured multiple times, and the captured video data is combined into one piece of video data.
