The video tag generator 309 may select a play icon of an image without a video tag, and receive a video tag from the server according to the selection of the play icon.

The controller 170 may obtain whether or not to receive a video customized view command (S11).

The controller 170 may determine whether or not a video custom view command has been received. For example, when receiving a command to select an icon, the controller 170 may determine that a video custom view command has been received. In this case, the icon is an icon for custom video viewing, which will be described later.

When receiving a video custom view command, the controller 170 may extract video content (S13).

When receiving a video custom view command, the controller 170 may extract video content included in a currently running web page. The controller 170 may extract video content playable from a web page.

In the web page, there may be video content having a video tag or video content that does not have a video tag, but a video tag is generated when an image is selected.

Therefore, first of all, the controller 170 may extract the video content by obtaining a video tag from a web page.

In addition, the controller 170 may extract an image tag from a web page and input a selection command to an image corresponding to each of the extracted image tags. When a video tag is generated when an image corresponding to an image tag is selected, the controller 170 may extract video content corresponding to the video tag. On the other hand, if the video tag is not generated when the image corresponding to the image tag is selected, the controller 170 may determine that the video content is not.

Meanwhile, the controller 170 may extract video content by acquiring an image including a playback icon from a web page.

The controller 170 may extract video content by determining whether or not a play icon of an image is included regardless of whether a video tag is included. According to an embodiment, the controller 170 may extract video content by determining whether to include a play icon only for images that do not have a video tag.

The play icon may be a media button selected for playing content.

The media button recognition model 307 may machine learn a play icon. The shape, color, etc. of the play icon may vary. The media button recognition model 307 may store and learn data whenever it recognizes a play icon.

The controller 170 may acquire video content in a web page by performing only one of the above-described method of using a video tag, a method of using an image tag, and a method of using a play icon, or a combination of two or more methods. .

The display unit 180 displays a web page 81, and the web page 81 may include various types of

images

82, 83, 84, 85, and icons 91.

The icon 91 may be an icon for receiving a display command for a video list, that is, a video custom view command. When displaying the web page 81, the display 180 may also display an icon 91 for receiving a display command for a video list.

When the icon 91 is selected, the controller 170 may determine that a video custom view command has been received.

The HTML element of the first image 82 may not have a video tag. That is, in the first image 82, the video tag may not be included in the HTML element even before the selection command is received, and the video tag may not be included in the HTML element even after receiving the selection command.

The second image 83 may be an image having a play icon. The HLTML element of the second image 83 may include a video tag before the second image 83 is selected. Further, the HTML element of the second image 83 does not have a video tag until the second image 83 is selected, but may have a video tag upon receiving a selection command for the second image 83. The video tag may include a URL for accessing video content.

The third image 84 may be an image that does not have a play icon. In addition, the HTML element of the third image 84 may include a video tag regardless of whether the third image 84 is selected.

The fourth image 85 may be an image that does not have a play icon. Further, the HTML element of the fourth image 85 does not include a video tag before being selected, but may be an image including a video tag upon receiving a selection command.

When receiving a video custom view command while displaying a web page as shown in FIG. 8, the controller 170 extracts video contents corresponding to the second to

fourth images

83, 84, and 85. I can.

Meanwhile, the web page 81 may further include an area that is not displayed on the screen according to an adjustment command of the scroll bar 99. The controller 170 may extract not only the video content included in the area displayed on the screen but also the video content included in the area not displayed on the screen.

Again, Fig. 7 will be described.

The control unit 170 may generate a video list consisting of the extracted video content (S15) and display the generated video list (S17).

The controller 170 may display a video list 92 on the web page 81, and the video list 92 may include a video item representing each video content included in the web page 81. That is, the controller 170 may display the video list 92 on the web page 81. According to the first embodiment, the video item may be displayed as a thumbnail image.

The controller 170 may display a video list 92 on the web page 81, and the video list 92 may include a video item representing each video content included in the web page 81. According to the second embodiment, the video item may be displayed as a video name in a text format.

The controller 170 may display the video list 92 when the video is being played in full screen. As a specific example, the controller 170 may control the display 180 to display the icon 91 on the video 89 when at least one video included in the web page is being played in full screen. The icon 91 may be an icon for receiving an instruction to display a video list. When receiving a selection command for the icon 91, the controller 170 may control the display 180 to display the video list 92 on the video 89 playing in full screen.

Through this, there is an advantage that the user can easily check other videos without browsing the web page while watching the video.

In FIG. 11, the video list is shown as a video item of a thumbnail image, but is not limited thereto. The video item may be expressed in a variety of ways, such as a thumbnail image and a video name, as well as a preview playback image and a video playback address.

When receiving a selection command from the video list 92, the controller 170 may play a video according to the selection command.

The video list 92 displayed according to the video custom view function may include only video content included in the currently running web page. When the running web page is changed, the controller 170 may change a video item included in the video list 92. That is, when the web page is changed from the first web page to the second web page, the controller 170 converts the video item included in the video list 92 from the video contents included in the first web page to a second web page. You can change to video contents included in.
