The present disclosure provides a screen recording method.
At S101, operation data of an electronic device and response data generated based on the operation data are obtained.
In some embodiments, the electronic device includes a mobile phone, a tablet computer, a personal digital assistant (PDA), and a laptop computer, etc., which is not limited by the present disclosure. In a process of obtaining the operation data of the electronic device, one or more operation data of the electronic device itself, a component of the electronic device, and a device associated with the electronic device may be obtained. The component of the electronic device may be part of the electronic device that is used to obtain data and/or perform operations, such as a gyroscope, a physical button, a touch-control screen, and a touch-control panel, etc. The device associated with the electronic device may be a device that makes the electronic device generate the response data based on the operation data, such as a camera, a mouse, a keyboard, a remote-controller, an earphone, a speaker, and a gamepad, etc.
In some embodiments, in a process of recording a screen, an operator uses the touch-control screen, the keyboard, and the mouse at the same time to operate the electronic device. The operation data may be obtained from the touch-control screen, the keyboard, and the mouse.
The response data may be generated by the electronic device based on the operation data. For example, the electronic device is a mobile phone. To record a screen of the mobile phone, the operator presses a physical button on a peripheral frame of the mobile phone to generate the operation data. An image shown on the screen is the response data. Each one of the operation data corresponds to one response data. The response data may be displayed on the screen or may not be displayed on the screen. Since the objective of the present disclosure is screen recording, the embodiments of the present disclosure focus on the response data displayed on the screen.
At S102, a virtual device image matching the electronic device is obtained.
In a process of obtaining the virtual device image matching the electronic device, the virtual device image may be a virtual device image of an associated device when the operation data is obtained from the associated device of the electronic device.
In some embodiments, a source of the operation data may be used to determine whether a device that generates the operation data is the associated device of the electronic device. When the associated device generates the operation data, parameter information of the associated device may be obtained. Based on the parameter information, the virtual device image of the associated device may be generated.
When the operation data is generated based on the electronic device itself or the component thereof, the operation data may be obtained without receiving externally through a transceiver unit (e.g., a WiFi transceiver unit). When the operation data is obtained from the transceiver unit, the associated device is present. Receiving the operation data through the transceiver unit only determines the presence of the associated device. But a quantity and a type of the associated device are still unknown. For example, both the mouse and the keyboard may control a computer at the same time. Further, when the computer includes a touch-control screen, the source of the operation data may be the touch-control screen, the keyboard, and the mouse.
After the presence of the associated device is determined, the parameter information of the associated device may be obtained. The parameter information may include at least one of the type or the model of the associated device. For example, when the type of the associated device is a keyboard, regardless of the model of the keyboard, various keyboards look similar. As such, the virtual device image corresponding to the keyboard may be obtained. In some embodiments, when the model of the keyboard can be obtained, a first video resulted from the screen recording may reflect operator's use habit more truthfully, thereby achieving better user experience.
At S103, the operation data and the response data are associated with the virtual device image according to a pre-determined processing strategy to generate a first video.
In some embodiments, the operation data and the response data obtained in a screen recording process are associated with the virtual device image, such that the first video includes not only the response data, but also the virtual device image and the operation data. The screen recording has rich content. Further, the first video reflects the operation of the electronic device more intuitively, thereby making it suitable for guiding users to configure the electronic device.
In someone embodiment, associating the operation data and the response data with the virtual device image according to the pre-determined processing strategy to generate the first video includes associating a first sub-video generated from the operation data and a second sub-video generated from the response data with the virtual device image according to at least one of a point in time of obtaining the operation data or determined target response data to generate the first video.
In the screen recording process, regardless of the operation data, the screen recording operates continuously. As such, the obtained first video includes the entire screen recording process. In this case, the obtained first video may not be what a user wants. Thus, in the embodiments of the present disclosure, the first video is generated based on the following three processing strategies.
In the first process strategy, because each operation data corresponds to a point in time. The operation data and the response data at the point in time are often more interested by the user. Thus, the operation data obtained at the point in time may be used to generate the first sub-video, and the first sub-video and the second sub-video generated from the response data are associated with the virtual device image to generate the first video.
In some embodiments, the above process may be implemented as follows. A first point in time of obtaining the operation data is determined. The first sub-video is generated from the operation data corresponding to the first point in time. The second sub-video is generated from the response data corresponding to the operation data. The first sub-video and the second sub-video are associated with the virtual device image to generate the first video. In the first video obtained based on the first processing strategy, the content of the entire screen recording is the content of interest to the user. Even if the screen recording process is long, the first video resulted from the screen recording process is relatively short and completely captures the contents of the screen recording corresponding to each one of the operation data.
Take the electronic device being a mobile phone as an example. The first sub-video is a video capturing operation state outside the screen of the mobile phone. The first sub-video may be an animation that simulates a user's finger pressing a button. The virtual device image includes a peripheral frame of the mobile phone and physical buttons on the peripheral frame. The second sub-video includes the contents displayed on the screen of the mobile phone. Because the first sub-video is a filtered video including only the operation data corresponding to at least one of the point in time of the operation data or the determined target response data, the second sub-video also only includes the response data corresponding to the filtered operation data.
In the second processing strategy, due to the presence of the operation data, each one of the operation data corresponds to one response data. In some embodiments, the first sub-video may be generated from the operation data filtered based on the determined target response data. The target response data is a part of the response data and is filtered from the entire response data. That is, the target response data is the part of the response data that is desired to be included in the first video.
In some embodiments, the above process may be implemented as follows. A target response data is determined. The first sub-video is generated from the operation data corresponding to the determined target response data. The second sub-video is generated from the target response data. The first sub-video and the second sub-video are associated with the virtual device image to generate the first video. In the first video obtained based on the second processing strategy, the content of the entire screen recording is the content of interest to the user. Even if the screen recording process is long, the first video resulted from the screen recording process is relatively short and completely captures the contents of the screen recording corresponding to each one of the operation data.
In the third processing strategy, both the point in time of obtaining the operation data and the determined target response data may be used to generate the first video. That is, the first sub-video may be generated from the operation data filtered based on the point in time of obtaining the operation data and the determined target response data.
In some embodiments, the above process may be implemented as follows. A second point in time of obtaining target operation data is determined. The first sub-video is generated from the operation data corresponding to the second point in time. The second sub-video is generated from the determined target response data. The first sub-video and the second sub-video are associated with the virtual device image to generate the first video. The target operation data is a part of the entire operation data and is filtered from the entire response data. That is, the target operation data is the part of the operation data that is desired to be included in the first video. In other words, some of the operation data corresponding to the first point in time are selected as the target operation data. Correspondingly, the second point in time is a part of the first point in time. The second point in time is the point in time that is desired to be included in the first video. The target response data is also the part of the response data that is desired to be included in the first video. Regardless of being obtained based on the second point in time or the target response data, the operation data includes the content of interest to the user. In the first video obtained based on the third processing strategy, the content of the entire screen recording is the content of interest to the user. Even if the screen recording process is long, the first video resulted from the screen recording process is relatively short and completely captures the contents of the screen recording corresponding to each one of the operation data.
Take the electronic device being a computer as an example. The associated device includes a mouse and a keyboard. Double clicking on a left key of the mouse generates first operation data and a computer screen display corresponding first response data. Single clicking on a right key of the mouse generates second operation data and the computer screen displays corresponding second response data. The keyboard generates third operation data and the computer screen displays corresponding third response data. Each operation is separated by a time period. In the screen recording process, the screen recording starts after a screen recording start operation is received and the screen recording ends after a screen recording end operation is received. The generated screen recording video includes all the video frames from the beginning to the end of the screen recording.
When the first processing strategy is used, the first point in time may include each time for an occurrence of the operation data. The obtained first video only includes the content of the screen recording at the three first point in times. The first point in time may only include the point in times corresponding to mouse operations. Then obtained first video only includes the content of the screen recording at the two first point in times corresponding to the two mouse operations.
When the second processing strategy is used, the target response data may only include the response data corresponding to the mouse operations (i.e., the first response data and the second response data) or may include the first response data and the third response data.
When the third processing strategy is used, the second point in time may only include the point in time corresponding to the first operation data, and the target response data may only include the third response data. The specific implementation may be determined by a technical person according to actual scenarios and requirements.
In one embodiment, the operation data is processed to generate the first sub-video and the corresponding process may be implemented as follows. Based on the operation data, simulated operations to be performed on at least one of the electronic device itself, the component of the electronic device, or the associated device of the electronic device are generated. The simulated operations are used to generate the first sub-video according to at least the point in time or the corresponding response data. In another embodiment, the first sub-video and the second sub-video are associated with the virtual device image to generate the first video and the corresponding process may be implemented as follows. In one example, video frames of the first sub-video and video frames of the second sub-video are superimposed on the virtual device image to generate the first video. In another example, the video frames of the first sub-video and the video frames of the second sub-video are tiled on an inside and an outside of the virtual device image respectively to generate the first video.
The simulated operations include animated illustration. For example, when a user presses a physical button of the mobile phone, a hand image may be generated in an animated manner. As shown in
In one embodiment, the operation data and the response data are associated with the virtual device image according to a pre-determined processing strategy to generate the first video, and the corresponding process may be implemented as follows. A performance parameter of at least one of the electronic device itself or a target device is obtained. The operation data and the response data are associated with the virtual device image at least based on the performance parameter to generate the first video. The target device is a device that receives the first video.
The above process considers the performance parameter of the electronic device or the target device. The performance parameter can be, for example, a processing speed, a storage capacity, a resolution, a refresh rate, a network connection status, and a quantity of display terminals, etc. In actual implementation, when the performance parameter of at least one of the electronic device or the target device is insufficient, the content of the screen recording may be processed based on the performance parameter in the screen recording process to generate the first video that satisfy the performance parameter of at least the electronic device or the target device. For example, the electronic device may have a relatively small storage capacity. Even if only the content about the operation data at the corresponding point in time is recorded, the first video may still exceed the storage capacity. In this case, a quantity of the video frames in each sub-video may be reduced in the recording process. For example, 10 images frames may be reduced to 5 image frames to further reduce the need for the storage capacity.
In some embodiments, the screen recording method may further include the following process. In the process of obtaining at least one of the operation data or the response data, a first image acquisition circuit obtains a second video and/or a second image acquisition circuit obtains a third video. At least one of the second video or the third video is merged with the first video to generate a fourth video. The first image acquisition circuit and the second image acquisition circuit are disposed on two opposite sides of the electronic device, respectively.
When the electronic device is a mobile phone, the first image acquisition circuit and the second image acquisition circuit may be a front camera and a rear camera of the mobile phone. When the second video or the third video includes a target object, the target object may be processed, and an image of the processed target object is associated with the fourth video. In actual implementation, the target object may be processed into a virtual image or a cartoon image of the target object. The virtual image or the cartoon image of the target object is combined with the operation data to be associated with the fourth video. For example, when the target object is a person, the person may be processed into the carton image of the person. The carton image is combined with the animation image of the operation data. The combined image is then associated with the fourth video. In the generated screen recording video, the cartoon image of the person operates the physical button of the mobile phone. Correspondingly, the operation of the physical button generates the animation corresponding to the response data on the screen of the mobile phone.
In the embodiments of the present disclosure, the screen recording function is enhanced to include more information in the screen recording video. A viewer of the screen recording video may watch intuitively how the electronic device is operated. The screen recording performance is improved. It is convenient to use the first video to guide people to configure the electronic device with desired user experience.
Based on the same inventive concept, the present disclosure also provides a screen recording apparatus.
The first acquisition circuit 10 is configured to obtain operation data of an electronic device and response data generated by the electronic device based on the operation data. The second acquisition 20 is coupled with the first acquisition circuit 10 to obtain a virtual device image matching the electronic device. The first generation circuit 30 is coupled with the second acquisition circuit 30 to associate the operation data and the response data with the virtual device image according to a pre-determined processing strategy to generate a first video.

In a process of obtaining the virtual device image matching the electronic device, the virtual device image may be a virtual device image of an associated device when the operation data is obtained from the associated device of the electronic device. The second acquisition circuit 20 may be configured to: use a source of the operation data to determine whether a device that generates the operation data is the associated device of the electronic device; when the associated device generates the operation data, obtain parameter information of the associated device; and based on the parameter information, generate the virtual device image of the associated device.
