For example, a hand-held touch remote control replaces most of the physical built-in hard keys in a general remote control device with a user interface in a touch screen.

Before the interface display method provided by the embodiment of the present application is explained in detail, the application scenario provided by the embodiment of the present application is introduced.

Taking a smart TV as an example, since it takes a certain amount of time to turn on the smart TV, and usually a black screen interface is displayed during the turning on of the smart TV, the user experience is poor. Therefore, in the related art, in the process of starting up the smart TV, some startup images such as advertisements can be displayed. In order to avoid the display of the black screen interface, the playback time of the startup screen is usually longer than the startup time. However, the startup process of the smart TV involves the initialization process of the whole machine and multiple applications, and the time required for each startup is different. The playback time of the screen is 15 seconds or 30 seconds, that is, far longer than the boot time of the smart TV.

This will cause users to watch the startup screen for a while. Therefore, the embodiment of the present application provides an interface display method, which can estimate the booting duration of the current smart TV according to the historical booting duration of the smart TV, so as to display the booting duration of the current booting time in a countdown manner, and the countdown to the booting duration of the current booting time is completed. After that, the boot screen can also be skipped to reduce the time users spend watching the boot screen, thereby increasing user stickiness.

For example, the display device 200 is controlled using an application running on the smart device. The app can be configured to provide users with various controls in an intuitive user interface (UI) on the screen associated with the smart device.

For example, the mobile terminal 300 may install a software application with the display device 200, and realize connection communication through a network communication protocol, so as to realize the purpose of one-to-one control operation and data communication. For example, a control command protocol can be established between the mobile terminal 300 and the display device 200, the remote control keyboard can be synchronized to the mobile terminal 300, and the function of controlling the display device 200 can be realized by controlling the user interface on the mobile terminal 300.

For example, a PC (Personal Computer, personal computer), a tablet computer, and the like.

Those skilled in the art should understand that the above-mentioned display devices are only examples. If other existing or future terminals or servers are applicable to the present application, they should also be included in the protection scope of the present application, and are incorporated herein by reference. here.

Next, the interface display method provided by the embodiment of the present application is explained in detail.

Please refer to FIG. 2 , which is a flowchart of an interface display method provided by an embodiment of the present application. Since most of the network modules in the display device are not initialized during each booting process, the execution subject of the method provided by the embodiment of the present application is the display device itself. The method includes the following steps.

Step 201: The display device obtains an estimated booting duration of the current booting operation in response to the booting operation, wherein the booting duration of the current booting is determined according to the historical booting durations.

In some embodiments, when the display device detects a power-on operation, it may be determined that power-on is currently required. In this way, the display device can respond to the power-on operation, that is, execute the power-on process of the display device. At the same time, the display device can estimate the current boot time according to the historical boot time.

In some embodiments, different estimated power-on durations correspond to different power-on operation processes. The estimated duration of the current start-up for different start-up operations may be the same or different. For example, when the estimated boot time is 11 seconds, it corresponds to the first boot operation, and when the estimated boot time is 10 seconds, it corresponds to the second boot operation. It is also possible to estimate the boot time of the third boot operation to be 10 seconds.

It should be noted that, in different situations, the triggering methods of the power-on operation are different. For example, in some embodiments, the power-on operation may be triggered by a physical key on the display device. In other embodiments, when the display device can be operated by means of a remote control, an application program, or the like, a power-on operation can be triggered by means of a remote control, an application program, or the like. That is, the power-on operation can be triggered by the control device 100 and the mobile terminal 300 shown in FIG. 1 .

In addition, the boot process of the display device may include the entire display device and the initialization process of multiple applications. Moreover, in different settings, the multiple applications may be different, which is not limited in this embodiment of the present application.

Although the applications that need to be initialized during each booting process of the display device may be different, the booting time of the display device may be different. However, under normal circumstances, the settings of the display device within a period of time are not much different, so that the booting time of the display device within the period of time is not much different. Therefore, in some embodiments, the display device may acquire N historical boot durations, where the N historical boot durations are the durations required for N boot processes before the current time, and N is an integer greater than 1. Use the actual N historical boot times in history to estimate the boot time this time.

That is, the duration of the current booting can be estimated according to the durations required for the most recent N booting processes before the current time, thereby improving the accuracy of the current booting duration.

Wherein, the manner in which the display device estimates the current booting duration according to the N historical booting durations may include: determining an average value of the N historical booting durations to obtain a first average value. Determining deviation values between the N historical boot durations and the first average value, respectively, to obtain N deviation values. The average value of the N deviation values is determined to obtain a second average value, and the sum of the first average value and the second average value is rounded up to obtain the current boot time.

It should be noted that, when the sum of the first average value and the second average value is an integer, the sum of the first average value and the second average value can be directly determined as the current power-on duration. When the sum of the first average value and the second average value is not an integer, in order to prevent subsequent users from skipping the boot screen, the boot process of the display device has not been completed. The sum is rounded up, and the value obtained after rounding up is determined as the boot time of this time.

For example, if N is 5, the durations required for the 5 booting processes before the current time are 10 seconds, 9 seconds, 9 seconds, 10 seconds, and 11 seconds, respectively. The display device may determine that the average value of the five historical power-on durations is 9.8 seconds, that is, the first average value is 9.8 seconds. Afterwards, the display device can determine the deviation values of the five historical boot times and the first average value, respectively, and the obtained five deviation values are 0.2 seconds, 0.8 seconds, 0.8 seconds, 0.2 seconds, and 1.2 seconds, respectively. The average value of the first deviation values is 0.64, that is, the second average value is 0.64 seconds. Since the sum of the first average value and the second average value is 10.44, which is not an integer, it can be rounded up, so that the booting time of this time is 11 seconds.

It is worth noting that the methods for estimating the current booting duration of the display device according to the N historical booting durations may include multiple methods, and the above method is only one of them. The display device may also estimate the booting duration in other ways, which is not limited in this embodiment of the present application.

As an example, the display device may directly round up the above-mentioned first average value to obtain the power-on duration of this time.

As another example, the display device can count the time required for the initialization of the whole device and the time required for each application to initialize during the historical booting process. In this way, when the display device estimates the booting time this time, it can be calculated from N Determine the time required for the initialization of the whole machine from the historical boot time, and the time required for the initialization of multiple applications that need to be initialized during this boot process. The durations required for the initialization of multiple applications are added to obtain the boot duration.

Due to the different settings of the display device itself, the time required for the initialization of the whole machine is often different. However, the settings of the display device usually have little effect on the length of the initialization of the whole machine. Therefore, it can be determined that among the N historical boot times The average value of the duration required for the whole machine initialization to obtain the duration of this whole machine initialization. Afterwards, from the N times of historical booting processes, the duration required for initialization of multiple applications that need to be initialized during the current booting process is determined. If an application is not initialized during N times of historical booting, then the duration required for initialization of other applications belonging to the same type and the same developer as the application can be determined as the duration required for initialization of the application.

It should be noted that, in this embodiment of the present application, a timer may be set inside the display device, and the timer can be used to time the time required for each boot of the display device, so as to determine the time required for each boot of the display device. . In addition, if the number of historical boot times stored locally on the display device is less than N when determining the boot time this time, you can estimate the boot time directly based on all the historical boot times stored locally.

In some embodiments, the historical boot time may also be counted to generate a boot duration curve. The boot duration curve takes the historical boot time and historical boot duration as two dimensions, and generates a boot duration curve according to the historical boot time and historical boot duration. The boot time curve, the estimated boot time of this time.

Among them, the method of estimating the current boot duration according to the boot duration curve may include various methods. For example, the change trend of the boot duration curve may be determined, and then the current boot duration may be determined according to the change trend of the boot duration curve.

In some embodiments, the process of estimating the power-on duration of this time may be performed before the display device is powered off, or after the last boot-up, and the acquired boot-on duration of this time is stored in a preset location, and the display device is directly powered on during the boot process. The preset position reads the stored power-on duration of this time.

In some embodiments, the process of estimating the current boot time is performed after booting up and before displaying the prompt message of skipping the boot screen.

Step 202: The display device displays a startup screen.

During the booting process of the display device, a black screen interface is usually displayed, or a device booting page with a logo is displayed. However, this kind of page is usually relatively boring, and the user experience is relatively poor. Therefore, in some embodiments, the display device can block the device startup page by using the startup screen, thereby improving the fun of the startup process, thereby improving the user experience and enhancing the user stickiness.

It should be noted that the startup screen may be an advertisement or other information, for example, some common sense information, or some function introductions of the display device, which are not limited in this embodiment of the present application.

In addition, in order to improve the interest in the booting process, the displayed booting screen may be a video or an image sequence, which is not limited in this embodiment of the present application.

Step 203 : the display device displays on the display interface of the boot screen a prompt message for skipping the boot screen, the prompt message includes a countdown, and the initial time of the countdown is the current boot time.

In some embodiments, after the display device estimates the duration of the current startup, the display device may display on the display interface of the startup screen prompt information for skipping the boot screen, where the prompt information includes the current boot time displayed in a countdown manner duration. That is, on the display interface of the boot screen, the duration of the boot this time may be displayed in a countdown manner, and the relevant prompt content for skipping the boot screen may also be displayed.

In some embodiments, the prompt information includes countdown prompt information for prompting the remaining time of the boot screen, and the countdown time in the prompt information is a pre-configured duration for displaying the boot screen. In some embodiments, it is used for displaying the boot screen. The duration of the screen is longer than the estimated boot time, and it will also be longer than the actual boot time. So that when the user does not choose to skip the boot screen, the time when the boot screen ends is not earlier than the actual boot time, so that the device home page can be normally entered after the boot screen ends.

For example, continuing with the above example, the estimated boot time of the display device is 11 seconds. Assuming that the startup screen is an advertisement, as shown in Figure 3, a prompt message "You can skip the advertisement after 11 seconds" may be displayed on the display interface of the advertisement.

In some other embodiments, the display interface of the boot screen may display not only the current boot duration in a countdown manner, but also the display duration of the boot screen in a countdown manner. In this way, the user can be clearly informed of the remaining display time of the startup screen.

For example, continuing the above example, assuming that the display time of the advertisement is 15 seconds, then, as shown in Figure 4, on the display interface of the startup screen, not only "You can skip the advertisement after 11 seconds" can be displayed, but also the countdown can be displayed on the display interface. way to display the ad's display duration "15 seconds".

It should be noted that the prompt information skipping the boot screen and the display duration of the boot screen can be displayed at any position on the display interface of the boot screen, and the display positions of these two kinds of information are not limited in the embodiment of the present application.

In addition, after the boot time countdown is completed, the display device may change the displayed prompt information for skipping the boot screen to the prompt information for skipping the operation, that is, the prompt information for skipping the boot screen is overwritten by the prompt information for skipping the boot screen. prompt information. For example, as shown in Figure 5, "you can skip the ad after 0 seconds" can be overwritten with "press back to skip the ad". This way, the user can be explicitly told how to skip the splash screen.

Of course, the above is only an implementation manner, and the embodiment of the present application may also directly notify the user to skip the boot screen by directly skipping the prompt information of the boot screen. For example, the prompt information for skipping the boot screen may be "You can After 11 seconds, press the back button to skip the advertisement.” In this way, after the countdown of the boot time is completed, the prompt message for skipping the boot screen can be “You can press the back button after 0 seconds to skip the advertisement”. In this way, the user can Make sure that the countdown has been completed, and you can also know that pressing the return key can skip the startup screen. The display device does not respond to the operation of the return key before the end of the countdown to ensure the normal startup of the system, and starts to respond to the operation of the return key after the end of the countdown to skip the startup screen.

Step 204: The display device receives the input skip operation instruction for skipping the boot screen, when the current boot time has been counted down and the current boot process has ended, in response to receiving the skip operation instruction, end the boot The display of the screen displays the main page of the device.

Since the boot time of this time is estimated by the display device according to the historical boot time, the boot time of this time is not necessarily the same as the actual time required for the display device to be powered on this time. In this way, when detecting a skip operation instruction for skipping the boot screen, the display device can determine whether the countdown of the current boot time has been completed, and whether the current boot process has ended.

In some embodiments, if the start-up duration has been counted down and the current start-up process has ended, the display of the start-up screen may be ended, and then the device home page may be displayed. That is to say, the booting time of this time is greater than or equal to the time actually required in the booting process of this time. In this way, when the countdown of the booting time is completed, the booting process has ended, so that the skip operation of the booting screen is detected. , you can skip the startup screen and display the main setting page.

In other embodiments, if the current boot time countdown is not completed, but the current boot process has ended, the boot screen may continue to be played without responding to the skip operation instruction, or respond to the skip operation after the countdown ends. command to automatically end the display of the startup screen and enter the main page of the display device.

In some other embodiments, the display device receives an input skip operation instruction for skipping the boot screen, and if the current boot time has been counted down and the current boot process has not ended, in response to receiving the skip operation command to end the display of the startup screen and display the device startup page. or. In response to receiving the skip operation instruction, the startup screen continues to be displayed.

That is to say, the booting time of this time is less than the actual time required in the booting process of this time. In this way, when the countdown of the booting time is completed, the booting process is not over, so when the skip operation of the booting screen is detected, On the one hand, the boot screen can be skipped and the device boot page is displayed, or on the other hand, the boot screen can continue to be displayed without performing any processing on the skip operation.

It should be noted that, under different circumstances, the triggering method of the skip operation of the startup screen is different. For example, in some embodiments, a physical button on the display device may be used to trigger the skipping operation of the startup screen. In other embodiments, when the display device can be operated by means of a remote controller, an application program, or the like, the skip operation of the startup screen can be triggered by means of a remote controller, an application program, or the like.

In some embodiments, after receiving the skip operation instruction, the controller determines whether the system booting is completed, and then determines whether the countdown is completed if completed, and does not respond to the skip operation instruction if the system booting is not completed.

In some embodiments, after receiving the skip operation instruction, the controller delays the distribution of the skip operation instruction when the system startup is not completed or the countdown is not completed, and then distributes the skip operation instruction after the system startup is completed and the countdown is completed. Operation instruction, so that the skip operation of the boot animation can be completed by receiving a skip operation instruction once, and the user does not need to input repeatedly.

In some embodiments, in the process of displaying the startup screen, if a confirmation operation instruction from the user is received, the controller determines whether the system startup is completed, and then determines whether the countdown is completed if it is completed, and does not respond to the confirmation operation if the system startup is not completed. instruction.

In some embodiments, in the process of displaying the startup screen, after receiving the confirmation operation instruction from the user, the controller delays the distribution of the confirmation operation instruction when the system startup is not completed or the countdown is not completed until the system startup is completed and the countdown is completed. When completed, the confirmation operation instruction is redistributed, so that after receiving the confirmation operation instruction once, the interactive interface corresponding to the startup animation can be displayed without displaying the main page of the display device.

Next, an example is used to describe the interface display method provided by the embodiment of the present application.

Referring to FIG. 6 , for the first power-on of the smart TV, if the user clicks the power-on button on the remote control, the remote control will send a power-on signal to the smart TV. In this way, the smart TV can detect the power-on operation, and then respond to the power-on operation, and at the same time, play advertisements through the TV player included in the smart TV. Wherein, the display interface for playing the advertisement this time does not display the prompt information for skipping the advertisement, that is, the skippable time is not displayed. When the startup is completed, the timer can be notified to record the actual startup time. Afterwards, the TV home page is displayed after the advertisement has finished.

For the Mth booting of the smart TV, M is greater than 1. Assuming that the user clicks the power-on button on the remote control, the remote control will send a power-on signal to the smart TV. In this way, the smart TV can detect the power-on operation, and then respond to the power-on operation. At the same time, the smart TV can estimate the boot time of this time (assuming the boot time is 11 seconds) according to the historical boot time, play advertisements, and display a prompt message on the display interface of the advertisement "You can skip the advertisement after 11 seconds. ”, the prompt information includes the current boot time displayed in a countdown manner. When the startup is completed, the timer can be notified to record the actual startup time. At this time, the advertisement continues to be played, and it is assumed that the 11-second countdown is completed. At this time, a prompt message "Press the return key to skip the advertisement" may be displayed on the display interface. After that, suppose the user clicks the back button on the remote control, so that the smart TV can detect the skip operation of the advertisement, the smart TV can end the playing of the advertisement, and directly display the TV main page. That is, the smart TV can skip the ad and display the TV home page.

In the embodiment of the present application, according to the historical booting duration, the current booting duration can be estimated more accurately, that is, the accuracy of determining the current booting duration is improved. In addition, the display interface of the boot screen displays the boot time in a countdown manner, which can provide the user with a time when the boot screen can be clearly skipped. Skip the start-up screen, reduce the time users spend watching the start-up screen, and increase user stickiness.
