Example one

Fig. 2 schematically shows a flowchart of a video playing method according to a first embodiment of the present application. It is to be understood that the present method embodiment may be implemented in the computer device 3, and the flow chart of the present method embodiment is not intended to limit the order in which the steps are performed.

As shown in fig. 2, the video playing method may include steps S200 to S206, wherein:

step S200, receiving a page access request sent by a client terminal.

After receiving the page access request, the computer device 3 executes a corresponding response operation.

The page access request may be an HTTP request based on the HTTP(s) Protocol, e.g., HTTP:// bilibili.

Step S202, according to the page access request, obtaining an HTML (Hypertext Markup Language) file and a video playing address for linking a video.

The computer device 3 parses the page access request, and defines an HTTP response based on the parsing result, such as sending back an HTML file corresponding to the target page. The computer device 3 can also obtain the video playing address in the target page, and the video playing address is returned to the client terminal 6 along with the HTML file, so that the client terminal 6 can directly perform video playing operation according to the HTML file returned by the computer device 3.

The HTML file may be a file that has not been subjected to page rendering, or a file that has been subjected to page rendering. The page rendering is to run Javascript to request page data, and convert the requested page data into a complete page in combination with a preset page template, where the complete page can be displayed to a user through the browser 7.

In an exemplary embodiment, the computer device 3 performs a server rendering operation, as shown in fig. 4, the step S300 may include steps S400 to S402, where: step S400, acquiring page resources and a page template according to the page access request; step S502, performing page rendering operation according to the page resource and the page template to obtain the rendered HTML file.

In an exemplary embodiment, the computer device 3 does not provide a server rendering operation, and executes a client rendering operation through a client terminal, as shown in fig. 5, the step S300 may include the step S500: and acquiring a page template according to the page access request, wherein the page template is the HTML file sent to the client terminal.

The execution of the server rendering operation or the client rendering operation may be determined by the operating state of the computer device 3 and/or the client terminal 6, for example, in a high load situation of the computer device 3, the server rendering operation may be stopped to maintain the normal operation of the device.

In an exemplary embodiment, as shown in fig. 6, the step S302 may include the step S600: and generating the playing address request according to a preset path address and a video Identification (ID) in the page access request. For example: when the computer device 3 receives a page access request sent by the client terminal 6 and a URL (uniform resource locator) of the page access request is https:// www.bilibili.com/video/av70877592 and "av 70877592" is a video identifier in the page access request, the "av 70877592" is combined with a preset path address "bilili. com/playurrid ═" to obtain a play address request "bilili.

After obtaining the play address request "bilili. com/playurl ═ av 70877592", the computer device 3 sends the play address request to the content server 4, so that the content server returns the video play address (video url) based on the play address request.

It should be noted that, in different websites, the form and location of the video identifier in url may be different, such as the website of a certain video page in the love art: html, whose video identification might be 19rvi9ywfo or v _19rvi9 ywfo; a certain video page website of you and cool: https:// v.youku.com/v _ show/id _ xmzamdazzy 2MA ═ htmlspm ═ a2h0k.11417342. souresults ═ dtle ═ efbfbd4a1a38efbfbdef, and the video identifier thereof may be xmzamdazzy 2MA, which is not repeated herein.

And step S204, adding the video playing address into the HTML file to obtain a target HTML file.

And step S206, returning the target HTML file to the client terminal so that the client terminal can execute video playing operation according to the video playing address.

As described above, the video playing method according to the first embodiment:

the computer device 3 is used as a server, acquires an HTML file after receiving a page access request as a client terminal, and also replaces a client to ask for a video playing address from the content server 4, and adds the video playing address into the HTML file, so that the client terminal can execute video playing operation according to the video playing address in the target HTML file after receiving the target HTML file returned by the computer device 3.

In terms of conventional technology, taking client rendering as an example, the client terminal 6 needs to perform video playing operation through the following steps: firstly, sending a page access request to computer equipment 3; receiving an HTML file returned by the computer equipment; ③ request, download, initialize JS (e.g., loadvideo. JS), etc.; fourthly, performing authority authentication operation with the content server 4; fifthly, sending a play address request to the content server 4; sixthly, receiving the video playing address returned by the content server 4, and executing the video playing operation according to the video playing address. It is understood that the network conditions of the user side are involved in the step four and the step five, and in the case of poor network conditions of the user side, the time consumption of the two steps is catastrophic, and the video playing speed is seriously influenced.

For the embodiment, the step (iv) and the step (v) are executed in the computer device 3, so that the problem of playback delay caused by poor network conditions at the user side is avoided, and the video playback speed of the client terminal 6 is effectively increased. In addition, in some embodiments, the computer device 3 and the content server 4 are located in the same local area network, so that the computer device 3 does not need to perform permission authentication with the content server 4 before sending the play address request "bilili.com/playurrid ═ av 70877592", that is, step (r) is reduced, and efficiency of obtaining the video play address from the content server 4 is improved. Through a plurality of tests, the computer device 3 requests the content server in the same local area network for the video playing address, which can be basically maintained within 10 milliseconds, and the speed is much faster than that of the traditional video playing address requesting mode.

In order to make the invention more clear and understandable, an example is provided below as shown in fig. 7, and it should be noted that the example is not used to limit the invention.

In step S700, the client terminal sends a page access request, for example, "bilibilili.

Step S702, the computer equipment acquires an HTML file according to the page access request;

step S704, the computer device generates the play address request, for example, "bilibilili. com/playurrid ═ av 70877592", according to a preset path address and a video identifier in the page access request;

step S706, the computer equipment sends the play address request to a content server in the same local area network;

step S708, the content server returns the video play address based on the play address request;

step S710, the computer device adds the video playing address to the HTML file to obtain a target HTML file.

Step S712, the computer device returns the target HTML file to the client terminal;

step S714, the client terminal receives the target HTML file, first performs JS (e.g., load video.js) request, download, initialization, and the like, and performs page rendering or secondary page rendering and the like;

step S716, the client terminal executes the video playing operation according to the video playing address in the target HTML file.
