Title: Audio/video processing method and device

Description:
TECHNICAL FIELD 
     The present invention relates to communication technology, and more particularly to audio/video processing method and device. 
     BACKGROUND 
     With the development of communication technology, more and more functions are integrated into a terminal, so that the system function list of the terminal contains an increasing number of corresponding applications (APP). Some applications involve audio/video playing services, for example, Baidu video, etc. Typically, after viewing a good audio/video work, a user wants to recommend the audio/video work to his friends. The user can use a communication application in his terminal, for example, a messaging application, a Wechat application, a QQ application, etc., to provide related information regarding the audio/video work to his friends to view. During viewing of the work by the user and his friends, if there is demand for exchanges regarding the audio/video work, it is still necessary to communicate through communication applications on the respective terminals used by the user and his friends. 
     This way, however, requires both sides to repeatedly switch to communication applications for the exchanges regarding the audio and video being viewed, which might interrupt the audio/video playback and requires complicated operations, resulting in reduction of audio/video processing efficiency.

     DETAILED DESCRIPTION 
     To show the object, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of the invention more clearly, the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be described fully and clearly below in conjunction with the drawings of the embodiment of the invention. It is clear that the described embodiments are only part, not all, of the embodiments of the present invention. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments made by one of ordinary skill in the art without creative labor are within the protection scope of the present invention. 
     It should be noted that terminals involved in the embodiments of the present invention may include, but are not limited to, cell phones, personal digital assistants (PDA), wireless handheld devices, tablet computers, personal computers (PC), MP3 players, MP4 players, wearable devices (for example, smart glasses, smart watches, smart bracelet, etc.). 
     In addition, the term “and/or” is merely a description of the associated relationship of associated objects, indicating that three kinds of relationship can exist, for example, A and/or B, can be expressed as: the presence of A alone, presence of both A and B, presence of B alone. In addition, the character “/” generally represents an “OR” relationship between the associated objects before and after the character. 
       FIG. 1A  is a schematic flowchart of an audio/video processing method according to one embodiment of the present invention, as shown in  FIG. 1A . 
       101 , obtaining shared information provided by an inviting party, the shared information containing information of audio/video to be shared and instant communication identification information of the inviting party; 
       102 , establishing, based on a confirm operation from the invited party in view of the shared information, instant communication connection with the inviting party using the instant communication identification information, for instant communication with the inviting party; 
     The instant communication can include at least one of text message, audio massage, and video message. The present embodiment is not particularly limited. 
       103 , obtaining, based on the information of audio/video to be shared, the page where the audio/video to be shared is located, the page including instant communication page elements for input and/or output of communication information of instant communication with the inviting party; 
       104 , outputting the page where the audio/video to be shared is located. 
     In this way, the page where the audio/video to be shared is located can be displayed. Based on the output page, the invited party can carry out operations regarding audio/video playing, such as playback, pause, stop, and other operations. 
     It should be noted that part or all of the executive agent of  101  to  104  can be an application located in the terminal used by the invited party, a functional unit such as a plug-in or software development kit (SDK) disposed in an application located in the terminal used by the invited party, a processing engine in a network server, or a distributed system in a network. The present embodiment is not particularly limited to the aforementioned. 
     As can be understood, the application can be a native application installed in the terminal used by the invited party, or a web application of a browser in the terminal used by the invited party. The present embodiment is not particularly limited. 
     In this way, one can output the page where the audio/video to be shared is located through: obtaining shared information provided by an inviting party, the shared information containing information of audio/video to be shared and instant communication identification information of the inviting party; establishing, based on a confirm operation from the invited party in view of the shared information, instant communication connection with the inviting party using the instant communication identification information, for instant communication with the inviting party; and obtaining, based on the information of audio/video to be shared, the page where the audio/video to be shared is located, the page including instant communication page elements for input and/or output of communication information of instant communication with the inviting party. Because the audio/video to be shared and the instant communication page elements are disposed on the same page, the invited party can share exchanges regarding the viewed audio/video to be shared without having to switch again and again to a communication application, which features simple operation and thereby improves audio/video processing efficiency. 
     Alternatively, a possible implementation of this embodiment, at  101 , one can obtain shared information provided by the inviting party from a communication application in the terminal used to obtain the shared information. 
     Specifically, the inviting party can use a communication application in his terminal, for example, micro-channel App, QQ App, SMS App, e-mail App, etc., to provide related information of the audio/video works to his friend, i.e., the invited party, for the invited party to view. In this way, one can directly obtain the shared information provided by the inviting party from the communication application. 
     Alternatively, in a possible implementation of this embodiment, at  101 , the obtained instant communication identification information of the inviting party refers to an identity allocated to the inviting party for marking the inviting party himself during instant communication. After obtaining a confirm operation from the invited party in view of the shared information, one can further allocate an identity to the invited party and thus establish instant communication connection between the inviting party and the invited party with the respective identities allocated to the inviting party and the invited party, for instant communication between the inviting party and the invited party. 
     As can be understood, in this embodiment, the invited party can be one user or a plurality of users, the present embodiment is not particularly limited. Accordingly, if the invited party is a plurality of users, one can establish instant communication connection between the inviting party and a plurality of invited parties based on the identities respectively allocated to the inviting party and the plurality of invited parties, for group instant communication between the inviting party and the plurality of invited parties. 
     Alternatively, in a possible implementation of this embodiment, at  101 , the obtained audio/video to be shared may include, but is not limited to, the address information of the page where the audio/video to be shared is located or the resource information of the audio/video to be shared. The present embodiment is not particularly limited. 
     In the present invention, the so-called page, sometimes also called the World Wide Web page, may be a page based on the HyperText Markup Language (HTML), namely a HTML page, a page based on HTML and Java language, namely a Java server page (JSP), or a page written with any other programming languages. The present embodiment is not particularly limited. 
     Specifically, the page may comprise one or more display blocks, referred to as page elements, defined by page labels such as HTML tags, JSP tags, etc., the elements can be, for example, texts, images, ultra links, buttons, input boxes, drop-down boxes, etc. The present embodiment is not particularly limited. 
     In particular, the address information of the page where the audio/video to be shared is located may include, but is not limited to, a Uniform Resource Locator (URL) or Uniform Resource Name (URN) of the page where the audio/video to be shared; it may also include other identity information that can be used to access the page where the audio/video to be shared is located. This embodiment is not particularly limited. 
     For example, if the information of audio/video to be shared is the address information of the page where the audio/video to be shared is located, at  103 , one can specifically obtain the page where the audio/video is located based on the address information of the page where the audio/video to be shared is located. 
     In particular, the resource information of the audio/video to be shared may include, but is not limited to, the storage address of the audio/video to be shared. 
     For example, if the information of audio/video to be shared is the resource information of the audio/video to be shared is located, at  103 , one can specifically obtain the page where the audio/video is located based on the resource information of the audio/video to be shared, and thus load the audio/video to be shared into a specified page with an audio/video application, such as Baidu Video &amp; Audio application, in the terminal used to load the audio/video to be shared. 
     In the present invention, the instant communication page elements included in the page where the audio/video to be shared is located refers to a series of page elements for input and/or output of communication information of instant communication with the inviting party; they may include one page element or a plurality of page elements. This embodiment is not particularly limited. 
     Specifically, the instant communication page elements can be disposed at any position on the page where the audio/video to be shared is located, for example, on the entire area on the right of the page as shown in  FIG. 1B , or, for another example, in the lower portion on the right of the page, etc. The present embodiment is not particularly limited. 
     Alternatively, in a possible implementation of the embodiment, during playback of the audio/video to be shared, if the invited party performs a full-screen playing operation, so as to play the audio/video to be shared in a full-screen mode, one can display the instant communication page elements with floating components. 
     Specifically, floating window components can be particularly used to realize the floating components. The floating window components, which are view components of the Android operating system, can particularly use the addView (View v) method of WindowManager class provided by the Android operating system to achieve adding floating window components, and use the removeView (View v) method to achieve removing the floating window components. The floating window components can perform pre-set response operations in response to move operations, click operations, and other operation events. For example, the floating window components can specifically trigger a call instruction in response to a click operation. 
     Further alternatively, one may further set the property of floating window components into: flags=LayoutParams.FLAG_NOT_TOUCH_MODAL| LayoutParams.FLAG_NOT_FOCUSABLE, so that the floating window components respond only to move operations, click operations, and other operation events within the range of the coordinates that are covered by the floating window components. In this way, it is possible not to affect anything outside the range of coordinates covered by the floating window components. 
     Further alternatively, one can specifically set transparency parameters for the floating window components. In particular, one can specifically set the transparency parameters of the floating window components to be values greater than 0 and less than 1, for example, value of 0.5, 0.9, etc., so as to achieve displaying semi-transparent floating window components. In this way, during instant communication with the inviting party, the audio/video to be shared and viewed will not be blocked, which can effectively improve audio/video playback reliability. 
     Further alternatively, one may further carry out operations to adjust displaying of the floating windows, such as minimizing or hiding the floating window components, based on instructions from the invited party. 
     Further alternatively, one may further detect whether the terminal displays the floating window components. If the floating window components disappeared upon abnormal reasons, i.e., the terminal fails to display the floating window components, one may specifically re-add floating window components through the addView (View v) method of WindowManager class provided by the Android operating system. 
     Alternatively, in a possible implementation of this embodiment, during playback of the audio/video to be shared, it is also possible to further obtain a first state of progress of the inviting party viewing the audio/video to be shared and a second state of progress of the invited party viewing the audio/video to be shared. Further, it is possible to adjust the first state of progress and/or the second state of progress, so as to make the first state of progress be consistent with the second state of progress. 
     In this way, because it is possible to adjust the first state of progress of the inviting party viewing the audio/video to be shared and/or the second state of progress of the invited party viewing the audio/video to be shared, it is possible to effectively ensure that the inviting party and the invited party have consistent states of progress of viewing the audio/video to be shared, which can improve the efficiency of exchanges regarding the viewed audio/video. 
     In this embodiment, one can output the page where the audio/video to be shared is located through: obtaining shared information provided by an inviting party, the shared information containing information of audio/video to be shared and instant communication identification information of the inviting party; establishing, based on a confirm operation from the invited party in view of the shared information, instant communication connection with the inviting party using the instant communication identification information, for instant communication with the inviting party; and obtaining, based on the information of audio/video to be shared, the page where the audio/video to be shared is located, the page including instant communication page elements for input and/or output of communication information of instant communication with the inviting party. Because the audio/video to be shared and the instant communication page elements are disposed on the same page, the invited party can share exchanges regarding the viewed audio/video to be shared without having to switch again and again to a communication application, which features simple operation and thereby improves audio/video processing efficiency. 
     In addition, with the technical solution provided by the present invention, because it is possible to adjust the first state of progress of the inviting party viewing the audio/video to be shared and/or the second state of progress of the invited party viewing the audio/video to be shared, it is possible to effectively ensure that the inviting party and the invited party have consistent states of progress of viewing the audio/video to be shared, which can improve the efficiency of exchanges regarding the viewed audio/video. 
     In addition, the technical solution provided by the present invention can greatly enhance user experiences.

     For example, if the information of audio/video to be shared is the resource information of the audio/video to be shared is located, after the invited party obtains the shared information, one can specifically obtain the page where the audio/video is located based on the resource information of the audio/video to be shared, and thus load the audio/video to be shared into a specified page with an audio/video application, such as Baidu Video &amp; Audio application, in the terminal where the audio/video to be shared is located. 
     In the present invention, the instant communication page elements included in the page where the audio/video to be shared is located refers to a series of page elements for input and/or output of communication information of instant communication with the inviting party; they may include one page element or a plurality of page elements. This embodiment is not particularly limited. 
     Specifically, the instant communication page elements can be disposed at any position on the page where the audio/video to be shared is located, for example, the entire area on the right of the page as shown in  FIG. 1B ; or, for another example, in the lower portion on the right of the page, etc. The present embodiment is not particularly limited. 
     Alternatively, in a possible implementation of the present embodiment, at  202 , if the inviting party is not currently viewing the audio/video to be shared, one can use the method for the invited party to obtain the page where the audio/video to be shared is located, whose details will be omitted here; if the inviting party is currently viewing the audio/video to be shared, one can obtain the page where the audio/video to be shared directly based on the current page. 
     Alternatively, in a possible implementation of the embodiment, during playback of the audio/video to be shared, if the invited party performs a full-screen playing operation, so as to play the audio/video to be shared in a full-screen mode, one can display the instant communication page elements with floating components. 
     Specifically, floating window components can be particularly used to realize the floating components. The floating window components, which is view components of the Android operating system, can particularly use the addView (View v) method of WindowManager class provided by the Android operating system methods to achieve adding floating window components, and use the removeView (View v) method to achieve removing floating window components. The floating window components can perform pre-set response operations in response to move operations, click operations, and other operation events. For example, the floating window components can specifically trigger a call instruction in response to a click operation. 
     Further alternatively, one may further set the property of floating window components into: flags=LayoutParams.FLAG_NOT_TOUCH_MODAL| LayoutParams.FLAG_NOT_FOCUSABLE, so that the floating window components respond only to move operations, click operations, and other operation events within the range of the coordinates that are covered by the floating window components. In this way, it is possible not to affect anything outside the range of coordinates covered by the floating window components. 
     Further alternatively, one can specifically set transparency parameters for the floating window components. In particular, one can specifically set the transparency parameters of the floating window components to be values greater than 0 and less than 1, for example, value of 0.5, 0.9, etc., so as to achieve displaying semi-transparent floating window components. In this way, during instant communication with the inviting party, the audio/video to be shared and viewed will not be blocked, which can effectively improve audio/video playback reliability. 
     Further alternatively, one may further carry out operations to adjust displaying of the floating window components, such as minimizing or hiding the floating window components, based on instructions from the inviting party. 
     Further alternatively, one may further detect whether the terminal used for displaying displays the floating window components. If the floating window components disappeared upon abnormal reasons, i.e., the terminal fails to display the floating window components, one may specifically re-add floating window components through the addView (View v) method of WindowManager class provided by the Android operating system. 
     Alternatively, in a possible implementation of this embodiment, during playback of the audio/video to be shared, it is also possible to further obtain a first state of progress of the inviting party viewing the audio/video to be shared and a second state of progress of the invited party viewing the audio/video to be shared. Further, it is possible to adjust the first state of progress and/or the second state of progress, so as to make the first state of progress be consistent with the second state of progress. 
     In this way, because it is possible to adjust the first state of progress of the inviting party viewing the audio/video to be shared and/or the second state of progress of the invited party viewing the audio/video to be shared, it is possible to effectively ensure that the inviting party and the invited party have consistent states of progress of viewing the audio/video to be shared, which can improve the efficiency of exchanges regarding the viewed audio/video. 
     In this embodiment, one can output the page where the audio/video to be shared is located through: providing shared information to an invited party, the shared information containing information of audio/video to be shared and instant communication identification information of the inviting party; establishing, based on a confirm operation from the invited party in view of the shared information, instant communication connection with the invited party using the instant communication identification information of the inviting party; and obtaining, based on the information of audio/video to be shared, the page where the audio/video to be shared is located, the page including instant communication page elements for input and/or output of communication information of instant communication with the invited party. Because the audio/video to be shared and the instant communication page elements are disposed on the same page, the inviting party can share exchanges regarding the viewed audio/video to be shared without having to switch again and again to a communication application, which features simple operation and thereby improves audio/video processing efficiency. 
     In addition, with the technical solution provided by the present invention, because it is possible to adjust the first state of progress of the inviting party viewing the audio/video to be shared and/or the second state of progress of the invited party viewing the audio/video to be shared, it is possible to effectively ensure that the inviting party and the invited party have consistent states of progress of viewing the audio/video to be shared, which can improve the efficiency of exchanges regarding the viewed audio/video. 
     In addition, the technical solution provided by the present invention can greatly enhance user experiences.
