Description

播放控制方法及装置
交叉引用
本申请主张2016年11月11日提交的中国专利申请号为201610997225.8的优先权，其全部内容通过引用包含于此。
技术领域
本公开涉及计算机技术领域，尤其涉及一种播放控制方法及装置。
背景技术
随着互联网的快速发展，目前人们可以通过手机、平板电脑、虚拟现实眼镜或者虚拟现实头盔等设备观看视频。同时，用户之间的互动也越来越多，例如，用户观看直播视频时，可以与主播互动，还可以发弹幕、送礼物等。目前，当多人通过不同的终端观看直播视频时，若某一终端出现卡顿现象，则往往从卡顿处继续播放。在这种方法中，若该终端产生多次卡顿，则将导致该终端相对于其他终端的延迟越来越大，从而导致多个终端的播放不同步，进而可能导致终端用户之间产生沟通障碍。在另一种方法中，若某一终端出现卡顿现象，则在卡顿后从最新的视频流开始播放，这种方法将导致该终端漏播卡顿过程中的视频片段。

实施例1
图1示出根据本公开一实施例的播放控制方法的实现流程图。本实施例的执行主体可以为服务器，在此不作限定。如图1所示，该方法包括：
在步骤S101中，获取播放同一视频的多个终端中至少一个终端的播放状态。
在本实施例中，多个终端同时播放同一视频，换言之，分别使用多个终端的多个用户同时观看同一视频。在一种可能的实现方式中，多个终端可以进入同一虚拟观影房间，在同一虚拟观影房间中的多个终端观看同一视频。服务器可以将处于同一虚拟观影房间的多个终端相关联，以保持处于同一虚拟观影房间的多个终端的播放同步。
本实施例中所述的同步，可以为以下任意一种情况：多个终端之间的播放进度接近；多个终端中的大部分终端之间的播放进度接近；多个终端之间的播放进度相同；多个终端中的大部分终端之间的播放进度相同，在此不作限定。本领域技术人员也可以根据需求设置同步条件，在此不作限定。
作为本实施例的一个示例，播放同一视频的多个终端可以每隔预设时间向服务器发送终端的播放状态，以使服务器获取播放同一视频的多个终端中至少一个终端的播放状态。其中，终端的播放状态可以包括终端的播放进度、终端是否处于暂停播放的状态以及终端与服务器的连接状态中的一种或多种。
在步骤S102中，在播放状态满足预设条件的情况下，控制多个终端中至少一个终端的播放进度。
其中，播放状态满足预设条件可以为，多个终端中的某两个终端之间的播放进度之间的差值大于第一预设值，或者多个终端中的某一终端暂停播放 该视频，或者多个终端中的某一终端断开与服务器的连接，在此不作限定。后文将对播放状态满足预设条件以及控制多个终端中的至少一个终端的播放进度进行介绍，在此不再赘述。
根据本实施例的播放控制方法对于播放同一视频的多个终端，能够在保证多终端均不漏播各个视频片段的前提下，保持多终端的播放同步，从而使观看同一视频的用户之间互动时，不会由于视频播放不同步而导致沟通障碍，从而能够提高用户体验。
图2示出根据本公开一实施例的播放控制方法的一示例性的实现流程图。如图2所示，该方法包括：
在步骤S201中，获取多个终端播放同一视频的播放进度，并根据多个终端的播放进度从多个终端中确定参考终端。
在该示例中，获取播放同一视频的多个终端中至少一个终端的播放状态包括：获取多个终端播放同一视频的播放进度。在该示例中，播放同一视频的多个终端可以每隔预设时间向服务器发送终端的播放进度，以使服务器可以获取播放同一视频的各个终端的播放进度。
在一种可能的实现方式中，根据多个终端的播放进度从多个终端中确定参考终端，包括：将多个终端中播放进度最慢的终端确定为参考终端。
在另一种可能的实现方式中，根据多个终端的播放进度从多个终端中确定参考终端，包括：将多个终端中播放进度最快的终端确定为参考终端。
在一种可能的实现方式中，该方法还包括：获取各个终端播放该视频的播放进度对应的时间戳。通过获取各个终端播放该视频的播放进度对应的时间戳，能够根据时间戳与播放进度的对应关系，确定各个终端播放同一视频的播放进度的快慢。
在步骤S202中，分别计算多个终端中的各个终端与参考终端的播放进度之间的差值。
例如，若将多个终端中播放进度最慢的终端确定为参考终端，则通过计算多个终端中的各个终端与参考终端的播放进度之间的差值，可以分别确定各个终端比参考终端的播放进度快多少。若将多个终端中播放进度最快的终端确定为参考终端，则通过计算多个终端中的各个终端与参考终端的播放进度之间的差值，可以分别确定各个终端比参考终端的播放进度慢多少。
在一种可能的实现方式中，还可以结合网络延迟等数据分别计算多个终端中的各个终端与参考终端的播放进度之间的差值。
在步骤S203中，在多个终端中的第一终端与参考终端的播放进度之间的差值大于第一预设值的情况下，根据第一终端与参考终端的播放进度之间的差值向第一终端发送调整播放进度的指令，以使第一终端根据调整播放进度的指令调整播放速度，直至第一终端与参考终端的播放进度之间的差值满足第一预设条件，其中，第一终端为多个终端中除参考终端以外的任意一个终端。
通过调整终端的播放速度来使多个终端之间的播放同步，由此提供了一种较平缓的同步方式，使用户不容易感知由同步播放进度带来的影响，使用户不感到突兀，从而能够提高用户体验。
在一种可能的实现方式中，第一终端与参考终端的播放进度之间的差值满足第一预设条件，包括：第一终端与参考终端的播放进度之间的差值为0。例如，参考终端为多个终端中播放进度最慢的终端，第一预设值为2秒。若第一终端比参考终端的播放进度快3秒，则第一终端与参考终端的播放进度之间的差值大于第一预设值，且第一终端的播放进度需要调慢3秒，以使第一终端与参考终端的播放进度之间的差值为0。在这种情况下，可以向第一终端发送调慢播放速度的指令，例如，该调慢播放速度的指令可以为将播放速度降低25％，降低播放速度的时间为12秒，由此可以使第一终端对于接下来需要播放的9秒视频在12秒内播放完毕。
在另一种可能的实现方式中，第一终端与参考终端的播放进度之间的差值满足第一预设条件，包括：第一终端与参考终端的播放进度之间的差值小于或等于第二预设值，其中，第二预设值根据第一预设值确定，且第二预设值小于第一预设值。例如，参考终端为多个终端中播放进度最慢的终端，第一预设值为2秒，第二预设值为第一预设值的一半，即第二预设值为1秒。若第一终端比参考终端的播放进度快3秒，则第一终端与参考终端的播放进度之间的差值大于第一预设值，且第一终端的播放进度需要调慢2秒，以使第一终端与参考终端的播放进度之间的差值小于或等于第二预设值。在这种情况下，可以向第一终端发送调慢播放速度的指令，例如，该调慢播放速度的指令可以为将播放速度降低25％，降低播放速度的时间为8秒，由此可以使第一终端对于接下来需要播放的6秒视频在8秒内播放完毕。
图3示出根据本公开一实施例的播放控制方法的一示例性的实现流程图。如图3所示，该方法包括：
在步骤S301中，获取播放同一视频的多个终端中至少一个终端的播放状态。
在步骤S302中，在检测到多个终端中的第二终端的播放状态满足第二预设条件的情况下，向多个终端中除第二终端以外的其他终端发送暂停播放的指令，以使其他终端暂停播放该视频，其中，第二终端为多个终端中的任意一个终端。
在一种可能的实现方式中，第二终端的播放状态满足第二预设条件，包括：第二终端暂停播放该视频；和/或，第二终端断开与服务器的连接。
作为本实施例的一个示例，在检测到多个终端中的第二终端暂停播放该视频的情况下，向多个终端中除第二终端以外的其他终端发送暂停播放的指令，以使其他终端暂停播放该视频。
作为本实施例的另一个示例，在检测多个终端中的第二终端断开与服务 器的连接的情况下，向多个终端中除第二终端以外的其他终端发送暂停播放的指令，以使其他终端暂停播放该视频。
在步骤S303中，向其他终端发送请求投票的信息，以使其他终端根据请求投票的信息返回投票结果，其中，请求投票的信息用于请求其他终端中的各个终端投票是否等待第二终端。
在一种可能的实现方式中，投票结果可以包括继续等待第二终端、不等待第二终端和弃权中的任意一种。
在步骤S304中，对接收的各个投票结果进行统计，得到统计结果。
作为本实施例的一个示例，可以在继续等待第二终端的票数大于不等待第二终端的票数的情况下，确定统计结果为继续等待第二终端；可以在继续等待第二终端的票数小于或等于不等待第二终端的票数的情况下，确定统计结果为不等待第二终端。
在步骤S305中，在根据统计结果确定不等待第二终端的情况下，向其他终端发送继续播放的指令，以使其他终端继续播放该视频。
这样，通过在检测到多个终端中的第二终端的播放状态满足第二预设条件的情况下，向多个终端中除第二终端以外的其他终端发送暂停播放的指令，以使其他终端暂停播放该视频，能够在多个终端中的第二终端暂停播放该视频或者掉线的情况下，使多个终端中除第二终端以外的其他终端获得第二终端的播放状态满足第二预设条件的通知，并暂停播放该视频，以与第二终端的播放保持同步。通过向其他终端发送请求投票的信息，以使其他终端根据请求投票的信息返回投票结果，对接收的各个投票结果进行统计，得到统计结果，并在根据统计结果确定不等待第二终端的情况下，向其他终端发送继续播放的指令，以使其他终端继续播放该视频，能够在多个终端中的第二终端暂停播放该视频或者掉线的情况下，由多个终端中除第二终端以外的其他终端投票决定是否继续等待第二终端，从而能够提高多用户观看同一视 频的体验。
