DETAILED DESCRIPTION

The embodiments of the present disclosure will be described in more detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Although some embodiments of the present disclosure are shown in the drawings, it would be appreciated that the present disclosure can be implemented in various forms and should not be interpreted as limited to the embodiments described herein. On the contrary, these embodiments are provided for a more thorough and complete understanding of the present disclosure. It would be appreciated that the drawings and embodiments of the present disclosure are only for illustrative purposes and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present disclosure.

It should be understood that respective steps described in the method embodiments of the present disclosure may be performed in a different sequence and/or in parallel. In addition, the method embodiments may include additional steps and/or omit the execution of an illustrated step. The scope of the present disclosure is not limited in this respect.

In the description of the embodiments of the present disclosure, the term “including” and similar terms should be understood as open inclusion, that is, “including but not limited to”. The term “based on” should be understood as “at least partially based on”. The term “one embodiment” should be understood as “at least one embodiment”. The term “some embodiments” should be understood as “at least some embodiments”. Other explicit and implicit definitions may also be included below.

It should be noted that the modifications of “one” and “more” mentioned in the present disclosure are illustrative rather than restrictive. Those skilled in the art should be understood that unless indicated clearly in the context, otherwise it should be understood as “one or more”.

In some cases, users have different demands on different types of content. For example, regarding content about food making, users often need to read the steps of food making methods; regarding film and television content, users often need to view the complete picture. At present, the presentation mode of different types of content is rather unitary and the user's controllability is weak.

The disclosure aims to: set a first display mode, a second display mode and a third display mode on a playback interface, and display images to be played and text to be played in different ways in the first display mode, the second display mode and the third display mode. The first display mode, the second display mode and the third display mode are switched among each other by switching instructions triggered by the user, that is, every two of the first display mode, the second display mode and the third display mode may be switched among each other based on switching instructions. It is noteworthy that the first display mode, the second display mode and the third display mode are stable playback modes, that is, the mode may be maintained without continuous operation by the user. In this way, it is possible for the user to switch to different display modes to watch the image to be played or read the text to be played.

Application scenarios of the display mode switching method provided in the present disclosure are illustrated below:

In an application scenario of the display mode switching method, the provided in the present embodiment can be applied to a scenario such as a video playback. When the user plays a video, the playback interface in the video may first adopt the first display mode, folding the text to be played and hovering it on the image to be played. If the user needs to view the complete text to be played, the user may switch to the second display mode to display the complete text to be played on the playback interface. If the user needs to remove the cover of the text to be played, the user may switch to the third display mode, thus hiding the text to be played.

In a further application scenario of the display mode switching method, the method provided in the present embodiment may also be applied to a bullet-screen comments playback scene. For a video with bullet-screen comments playback, the playback interface may first adopt the first display mode, folding bullet-screen comments to be played and hovering them on the image to be played. If the user needs to watch complete bullet-screen comments, the user may switch to the second display mode to display complete bullet-screen comments on the play back interface. If the user needs to remove the occlusion of bullet-screen comments to be played, the user may switch to the third display mode, thus hiding bullet-screen comments.

It is noteworthy that the above two application scenarios do not constitute any restrictions on the present disclosure, and the display mode switching method provided herein may be applied to any scenario where a display mode needs to be switched.

It may be understood that the display mode switching method may be implemented by a display mode switching apparatus provided in the embodiments of the present disclosure, which may be part or all of a device, such as a terminal device or a processor of a terminal device.

The technical solution of the embodiments of the present disclosure will be described in detail in with specific embodiments below: These specific embodiments may be combined with each other, and the same or similar concepts or processes might not be repeated in some embodiments.

FIG. 1 is a schematic flowchart of a display mode switching method shown according to an example embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in FIG. 1, the display mode switching method provided in the present embodiment comprises:

Step 101: receiving a user-triggered switching instruction for a play back interface.

Step 102: in response to the switching instruction, switching the playback interface among a first display mode, a second display mode and a third display mode.

Wherein the play back interface may be an interface that plays images in a video playback application such as video and long video. In the embodiments of the present disclosure, the playback interface may display images to be played or text to be played, and may be provided with controls to interact with users.

In the embodiments of the present disclosure, the playback interface may be switched among different display modes under the direction of a user-triggered switching instruction. Wherein different display modes display images to be played and texts to be played in different ways. In some embodiments, the playback interface may contain a first display mode, a second display mode, and a third display mode.

The first display mode, the second display mode and the third display mode are respectively described below:

In some embodiments, the text to be played for the playback interface and predetermined controls for the playback interface are hovered over the image to be played for the play back interface in the first display mode.

It should be understood that in the first display mode, “hover” may be understood as displaying the image to be played at the bottom of the playback interface, superimposing the text to be played and the predetermined controls on the image to be played at a predetermined position of the play back interface, covering part of the content of the image to be played.

It should be understood that the position of hovering the text to be played and the predetermined controls are not intended to be limited in the embodiments of the present disclosure, which be set according to the actual situation.

As an example, FIG. 2 is a schematic diagram of the first display mode shown according to an example embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in FIG. 2, in the first display mode, multiple images to be played are displayed at the bottom of the playback interface, and the users may switch multiple images to be played by swiping. In the lower left corner of the play back interface, the text to be played is hovered on the images to be played for the user to read. On the top of the play back interface, predetermined controls are set for recommendations, searches and other functions. On the right of the play back interface, there are also predetermined controls for like, comment, repost and other functions.

Still refer to FIG. 2. In the first display mode, a text display area 11 with a fixed position may be set in the play back interface to hover the text to be played. If the text display area 11 in the first display mode is smaller than an area required to display the text to be played, the text to be played is folded in the text display area.

Wherein, the text display area is provided with a first control 12, which is configured to expand the folded text to be played. Text folding information is also displayed in the text display area 11, which is configured to characterize a folding proportion of the text to be played.

As an example, if the text to be played is too large and the text display area 11 can only display 40% of the content, then the text display area 11 may fold the text to be played, displaying only the first 40% of the text to be played and folding the subsequent content displaying ellipses. At the end of the text display area 11, the folding proportion of the text to be played, 60% may be displayed, and the first control 12 may be displayed. If the user needs to read the full text to be played, he/she may switch the display mode by clicking on the first control 12, so that the play back interface displays the full text to be played.

In some embodiments, the first display mode may further be set as a default display mode of the play back interface. When the user browses a new video, the playback interface may adopt the first display mode by default. After receiving the user-triggered switching instruction, the first display mode may be switched to other display mode.

In some embodiments, the playback interface in the second display mode comprises a first play back area and a second play back area, the first play back area being configured to display the image to be played, and the second playback area being configured to display the text to be played and predetermined controls.

It should be understood that the embodiments of the present disclosure do not intend to limit how the first and second playback areas are divided, which may be divided alongside or in parallel. The embodiments of the present disclosure also do not limit the sizes of the first and second playing areas. As an example, the first playing area may occupy 60% of a playback interface, and the second playing area may occupy 30% thereof.

In some embodiments, input boxes and predetermined controls may also be provided on the playback interface in the second display mode. As an example, the input box may be configured to enter comments, and the predetermined controls may be configured to trigger actions such as likes, favorites, and reposts.

As an example, FIG. 3 is a schematic diagram of the second display mode shown according to an example embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in FIG. 3, in the second display mode, the playback interface may be divided into two areas, upper and lower, as the first playback area 21 and the second playback area 22, so that the first play back area 21 and the second playback area 22 are distributed alongside. In the first playback area 21, the image to be played may be displayed after being reduced, and the user can switch the image to be played by swiping left and right. In the second play back area 22, the full text to be played may be displayed, and the user may adjust the display position of the text to be played by scrolling up and down. At the bottom of the playback interface, there are also input boxes and predetermined controls for the user to enter comments or perform actions such as likes, favorites and reposts.

Still refer to FIG. 3. In the second display mode, a fifth control 23 may further be set in the upper left corner of the first playback area, and when the user triggers the fifth control 23, the second display mode may be switched to the first display mode.

It is noteworthy that for the second display mode, since a separate second play back area is provided to display the full text to be played, it may be guaranteed that the user may read the full text to be played.

In some embodiments, the playback interface hides the text to be played and the predetermined controls in the third display mode.

It should be understood that hiding the text to be played and the predetermined controls may be construed as not showing the text to be played and the predetermined controls in the third display mode.

In some embodiments, a second control is further displayed on the playback interface in the third display mode, which is configured to trigger a download instruction for the image to be played after being clicking on.

In some embodiments, the second control may also have different triggering permissions, and it may be indicated through different colors displayed by the second control whether the second control has the permission to trigger the download instruction for the image to be played. As an example, if the color of the second control is the same as that of other control (e.g., the second control and other control are both white), the second control has the permission to trigger the download instruction for the image to be played, and the user may download the image to be played by clicking on the second control. If the color of the second control is different from that of other control (e.g., the second control is gray, while other control is white), the second control does not have the permission to trigger the download instruction for the image to be played, and the user cannot download the image to be played by clicking on the second control.

In some embodiments, a third control is further provided on the playback interface in the third display mode, which, when triggered, is configured to switch the playback interface back to the display mode before the previous switching instruction was triggered.

As an example, if the third display mode is switched from the first display mode, the user may switch the playback interface from the third display mode back to the first display mode when clicking on the third control. If the third display mode is switched from the second display mode, then the user may switch the playback interface from the third display mode to the second display mode when clicking on the third control.

In other embodiments, a fourth control is further provided on the playback interface in the third display mode, which, when triggered, is configured to switch the play back interface back to the second display mode.

As an example, FIG. 4 is a schematic diagram of the third display mode shown according to an example embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in FIG. 4, in the third display mode, the image to be played is displayed on the play back interface, and the text to be played and the predetermined controls are hidden so that the image to be played is not covered. In the lower left corner of the image to be played, a third control 31 is displayed, and in the lower right corner of the image to be played, a fourth control 32 and a second control 33 are displayed from left to right.

It is noteworthy that for the third display mode, since the text to be played and predetermined controls are hidden, it can be guaranteed that the image to be played is not covered.

In the embodiments of the present disclosure, the switching mode indicated by the switching instruction may be set by the user or the software developer, which is not intended to be limited in the embodiments of the present disclosure. In some embodiments, the user may trigger different switching instructions through different actions. As an example, the switching instruction may include a first switching instruction, a second switching instruction, a third switching instruction, a fourth switching instruction, a fifth switching instruction, and a sixth switching instruction, thus indicating different switching modes among the first display mode, the second display mode, and the third display mode, respectively.

As an example, the firs switching instruction is configured to switch the playback interface from the first display mode to the second display mode, and the first switching instruction is triggered when a first trigger condition is met. The first trigger condition may include clicking on the first control, clicking on the text display area of the playback interface, or performing a two-finger drag to zoom in on the text display area.

As an example, the second switching instruction is configured to indicate that the playback interface is switched from the second display mode to the third display mode, and the second switching instruction is triggered when a second trigger condition is met. The second trigger condition may include clicking on the first play back area.

As an example, the third switching instruction is configured to indicate that the play back interface is switched from the third display mode to the first display mode, and the third switching instruction is triggered when a third trigger condition is met. The third trigger condition may include swiping the image to be played or clicking on the third control.

As an example, the fourth switching instruction is configured to indicate that the playback interface is switched from the third display mode to the second display mode, and the fourth switching instruction is triggered when a fourth trigger condition is met. The fourth trigger condition may include clicking on the image to be played, performing a two-finger drag to zoom out on the playback interface, clicking on the third control, or clicking on a fourth control which is configured to switch the playback interface back to the second display mode when triggered.

As an example, the fifth switching instruction is configured to indicate that the play back interface is switched from the second display mode to the first display mode, and the fifth switching instruction is triggered when a fifth trigger condition is met. The fifth trigger condition may include clicking on a fifth control arranged on the playback interface in the second display mode, which is configured to switch the play back interface back to the first display mode when triggered.

As an example, the sixth switch instruction is configured to indicate that the playback interface is switched from the first display mode to the third display mode, and the fifth switching instruction is triggered when a sixth trigger condition is met. The sixth trigger condition may include a two-finger drag to zoom in on the area of the image to be played.

It is noteworthy that the trigger conditions corresponding to the above six switching instructions do not constitute any restrictions, and appropriate trigger conditions may be set in practical applications.

In the embodiments of the present disclosure, the trigger conditions for the above six switching instructions are simple with low costs for user learning, so that it is guaranteed that the user may quickly switch among the three display modes and select an appropriate one to view the image to be played or read the text to be played.

In some embodiments, the user may further trigger a change instruction for playback content by operating the display interface, and the terminal device, in response to the switching instruction for playback content triggered by the user, changes the playback content in the playback interface while maintaining a current display mode. Wherein, the current display mode comprises the first display mode, the second display mode or the third display mode. In this way, the playback content may be switched normally in each display mode.

It should be understood that the embodiments of the present disclosure do not restrict the operation that triggers the change instruction, and may, as an example, be an operation of scrolling up or down in the display interface. The embodiments of the present disclosure also do not limit the playback content, which may be video, images, text and other content.

In the display mode switching method provided by the embodiments of the present disclosure, by receiving a user-triggered switching instruction for a playback interface and in response to the switching instruction, the playback interface is switched among a first display mode, a second display mode and a third display mode. Wherein, in the first display mode, text to be played on the play back interface and predetermined controls of the playback interface are hovered over an image to be played on the playback interface: in the second display mode, the play back interface comprises a first playback area and a second playback area, the first play back area being configured to display the image to be played, the second playback area being configured to display the text to be played and the predetermined controls: in the third display mode, the playback interface hides the text to be played and the predetermined controls. In this way, the play back interface may be switched among the different display modes, so that users may use different display modes to view the image to be played or read the text to be played.

The foregoing switching instructions will be illustrated with a specific switching process.
