In the prior art, a viewer may perform a gift-giving operation in a live broadcast room, wherein gift information that can be displayed by all client terminals in the same platform is substantially unified, and gift lists in the client terminals are consistent with a gift list configured on a server. Therefore, some kinds of gift in the gift list may not meet requirements of some regions, and there may also generate conflicts in some regions, therefore, there is no way at all to configure the gift list uniformly by taking into account all the factors.

FIG. 1 is a flowchart of a method for configuring a gift list in a live broadcast room illustrated according to an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure. The method is applied to a server. As shown in FIG. 1, the method includes steps 101 to 104.

In step 101, receiving a gift list request sent by a client terminal, the gift list request including a room number of a live broadcast room where a user logging into the client terminal is located. The gift list request is used to request from the server gift list information that can be displayed in a live broadcast room where the client terminal entered. Therefore, the gift list request needs to include the room number of the live broadcast room where a user logging into the client terminal is located.

In step 102, determining a region where a host in the live broadcast room is located when broadcasting according to the room number of the live broadcast room. After the server acquires the room number of the live broadcast room, the server can determine the region where the host in the room number of the live broadcast room is located when broadcasting. Usually, when the host sends a broadcasting request to the server before broadcasting, information about the region where the host is located will be uploaded to the server, so the server can acquire the relationship between the room number of the live broadcast room and the region where the host in the live broadcast room is located when broadcasting in the server locally or in a storage device associated with the server. In addition, the host can also regularly feed back to the server real-time region thereof during broadcasting.

In step 103, determining targeting gift list information corresponding to the region. The correspondence between the targeting gift list information and the region may be preset, for example, a corresponding piece of gift list information may be set for each identifiable region, in this way, once the region is determined, corresponding gift list information can be found according to the region, and the gift list information can be regarded as the targeting gift list information. The targeting gift list information is used to indicate gifts that the client terminal needs to display in the gift list in the live broadcast room, which may include only gift IDs that need to be displayed, or may include all gift IDs and display states corresponding to individual gift IDs. The present disclosure does not have any limitation on specific content of the gift list information, as long as the client terminal can be indicated which gifts should be displayed in the gift list in the live broadcast room where the user logging into the client terminal is located.

In step 104, sending the targeting gift list information to the client terminal in response to the gift list request. After the targeting gift list information is determined, it can be sent to the client terminal that sent the gift list request.

With above technical solution, after receiving a gift list request sent by a client terminal, it is possible to determine, according to room number information of a live broadcast room where a user logging into the client terminal is located, which is included in the request, a broadcast region of a host in the live broadcast room watched by the logged-in user in the client terminal, so that the targeting gift list information to be sent to the client terminal can be determined according to different broadcast region of the host. In this way, different gift lists can be customized for different regions, so that gift lists that can be seen in live broadcast rooms where hosts broadcasting in different regions are located can vary.

FIG. 2 is a flowchart of a method for configuring a gift list in a live broadcast room illustrated according to another exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in FIG. 2, the method further includes step 201 and step 202 in addition to step 101, step 102 and step 104 as shown in FIG. 1.

In step 201, updating display state corresponding to each gift in the preset gift list information according to the region.

The preset gift list information may include, for example, information about gifts that can be displayed in all live broadcast rooms. For example, there are currently 20 kinds of gifts that can be displayed by a client terminal, and their gift IDs correspond to 1 to 20 respectively. In the preset gift list information, it can include IDs of the 20 kinds of gifts, and also includes display status corresponding to each gift ID. The display status is used to characterize whether the gift needs to be displayed in the live broadcast room. For example, it can be denoted by a binary field 0/1, which means that when the display status corresponding to any gift ID in the preset gift list information is 1, it denotes that the gift corresponding to the gift ID needs to be displayed in the gift list in the live broadcast room, and when the display status corresponding to any gift ID is 0, it denotes that the gift corresponding to the gift ID will not be displayed in the gift list in the live broadcast room. Wherein, the display state may also be denoted in other ways, and the present disclosure does not have any limitations on the method for denoting the display state.

After the region where the host broadcasting in the live broadcast room where the user logging into the client terminal which sends the gift list is determined, the display state corresponding to each gift in the preset gift list information can be determined according to the region information, and the display state corresponding to each gift in the preset gift list information is updated. Wherein, the method for updating the display state according to the region may be: for example, first acquiring a list of gifts that cannot be displayed according to the region, the gift list including gift IDs that cannot be displayed in the region; and then according to the gift list, modifying the display state of the respective gift in the preset gift list information, for example, if display states corresponding to all gifts in the preset gift list information is to display by default, the display status of gifts that cannot be displayed according to the gift list will be modified to be not display, if display states corresponding to all gifts in the preset gift list information is by default not to display, display states of all gifts except the gifts that cannot be displayed according to the gift list will be modified to be display. In this way, the display state corresponding to each gift in the preset gift list information can be updated according to the region.

In step 202, using the updated preset gift list information as the targeting gift list information. The updated preset gift list information can be sent to the client terminal as the targeting gift list information, to indicate the client terminal to display gifts in the gift list in the live broadcast room.

FIG. 3 is a flowchart of a method for configuring a gift list in a live broadcast room illustrated according to another exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in FIG. 3, the method further includes steps 301 to 302 in addition to steps 101 to 103 as shown in FIG. 1.

In step 301, acquiring a first gift language profile for language configuration of each gift in the targeting gift list information, the first gift language profile including configuration information of a plurality of languages corresponding to the gifts.

In step 302, sending the targeting gift list information and the first gift language profile to the client terminal.

Considering that languages used indifferent regions may also be different, but the language used by a user watching a live broadcast is not necessarily the same as the language used in the region where the host broadcasting in the live broadcast room watched by the user is located, therefore, after the targeting gift list information is determined, the first gift language profile including the configuration information of a plurality of languages is sent to the client together with the targeting gift list information, so that the client can select appropriate language configuration information from the first gift language profile to perform language configuration of the displayed gifts in the gift list according to its own needs or settings thereof.

FIG. 4 is a flowchart of a method for configuring a gift list in a live broadcast room illustrated according to another exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in FIG. 4, the method further includes steps 401 to 403 in addition to steps 102 and 103 as shown in FIG. 1.

In step 401, receiving a gift list request sent by a client terminal, the gift list request including a room number of a live broadcast room where a user logging into the client is located and a language preference set in the client terminal. The language preference is the language selected by the client to be displayed when the user is using the client terminal, and the language preference may be the default language of the client terminal, or may be selected by the user from language setting options in the client terminal. When sending a gift list request to a server, the language preference is included in the gift list request and sent to the server together, so that the server can know the language used by the client terminal.

In step 402, acquiring a second gift language profile for language configuration of each gift in the targeting gift list information according to the language preference. The second gift language profile includes language configuration information capable of configuring each gift in the targeting gift list information with the language preference.

In step 403, sending the targeting gift list information and the second gift language profile to the client terminal.

After acquiring the language preference in the client terminal, the second gift language profile is selected according to the language preference, and the second gift language profile is sent to the client terminal together with the targeting gift list information. In this way, after receiving the second gift language profile and the targeting gift list information, the client terminal can directly configure the language of gifts displayed in the gift list in the live broadcast room according to the second gift profile, without the need to select and configure from the configuration information of the plurality of languages locally on the client terminal.

FIG. 5 is a flowchart of a method for configuring a gift list in a live broadcast room illustrated according to an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure. The method is applied to a client terminal. As shown in FIG. 5, the method includes steps 501 to 503.

In step 501, in a case that a triggering condition for sending a gift list request to a server is triggered, sending the gift list request to the server, the gift list request including a room number of the live broadcast room where a user logging into the client terminal is located. The trigger condition can be various trigger conditions, for example, it can be: entering the live broadcast room; that is, when user's operation in the client terminal triggers the trigger condition of “entering the live broadcast room”, the client terminal will send the gift list request to the server. The trigger condition can also be, for example: refreshing the live broadcast room; that is, when the user refreshes the broadcast room in the broadcast room, the client terminal will also be triggered to send the gift list request to the server, because the host in the live broadcast room may be moving from one region to another during broadcasting, therefore, when the client terminal user refreshes the live broadcast room, the client terminal can also be triggered to send the gift list request again, so that gifts displayed in the gift list of the live broadcast room in the client terminal can always correspond to the region where the host in the broadcast room is located.

In step 502, receiving targeting gift list information fed back by the server in response to the gift list request, the targeting gift list information corresponding to a region where a host in the live broadcast room is located when broadcasting.

In step 503, displaying gifts according to the targeting gift list information.

After receiving the targeting gift list information, fed back by the server in response to the gift list request, which corresponds to the region where the host in the live broadcast room is broadcasting, the client terminal can display gifts in the gift list in current live broadcast room according to the targeting gift list information.

With above technical solution, after receiving a gift list request sent by a client terminal, it is possible to determine, according to room number information of a live broadcast room where a user logging into the client terminal is located, which is included in the request, a broadcast region of a host in the live broadcast room watched by the logged-in user in the client terminal, so that targeting gift list information to be sent to the client terminal can be determined according to different broadcast region of the host. In this way, different gift lists can be customized for different regions, so that gift lists that can be seen in live broadcast rooms where hosts broadcasting in different regions are located can vary.

In one possible implementation, displaying gifts according to the targeting gift list information includes: displaying gifts according to display state corresponding to each gift in the targeting gift list information. That is, in a case that when indicating which gifts need to be displayed and which gifts do not need to be displayed according to the display state corresponding to each gift in the targeting gift list information, then gifts may be displayed according to the display states.

In another possible implementation, the displaying gifts according to the targeting gift list information includes: displaying gifts according to the gifts shown in the targeting gift list information. That is, in a case that when indicating which gifts need to be displayed and which gifts do not need to be displayed according to gifts shown in the targeting gift list information, gifts are displayed according to the gifts directly shown in the targeting gift list information. Wherein, the gifts shown in the targeting gift list information may be gifts that need to be displayed or gifts that do not need to be displayed, which is not limited in this disclosure, as long as corresponding settings are set on both the client terminal and the server, that is, if, when the server determines gifts shown in the targeting gift list information, it is to include gifts that do not need to be displayed in the targeting gift list information, then, when the client terminal displays gifts according to the targeting gift list information, gifts shown in the targeting gift list information will not be displayed.

FIG. 6 is a flowchart of a method for configuring a gift list in a live broadcast room illustrated according to another exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in FIG. 6, the method includes step 601 and step 602 in addition to step 501 as shown in FIG. 5.

In step 601, receiving the targeting gift list information and a first gift language profile for language configuration of each gift in the targeting gift list information, the first gift language profile including configuration information of a plurality of languages corresponding to the gifts.

In step 602, displaying gifts according to a language preference set in the client terminal, the first gift language profile and the targeting gift list information.

After receiving the gift list request, the server cannot only feedback respective targeting gift list information to the client terminal according to the broadcasting region of the host in the live broadcast room where the user logging into the client terminal is located, but also feedback the first gift language profile corresponding to the gifts. After receiving the first gift language profile, the client terminal can select corresponding language configuration information from the first gift language profile according to the language preference set in the current client terminal, so as to realize that the language when displaying gifts in the gift list in the live broadcast room can be the same as the language preference set in the client terminal. In addition, the client terminal can also select respective language configuration information in the first gift language profile according to other settings to configure the language with which gifts are to be displayed, for example, based on user's selection settings, etc. In the present disclosure, there is no limitation on which language configuration information the client terminal will select from the first gift language profile to configure the gifts.

FIG. 7 is a flowchart of a method for configuring a gift list in a live broadcast room illustrated according to another exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in FIG. 7, the method includes steps 701 to 703.

In step 701, in a case that a trigger condition for sending a gift list request to a server is triggered, sending the gift list request to the server, the gift list request including a room number of a live broadcast room where a user logging into the client terminal is located and a language preference set in the client terminal. When the client terminal is triggered to send the gift list request to the server, the language preference in the client terminal may also be included in the gift list request.
