Method, device, and non-transitory computer-readable recording medium for supporting relay broadcasting using mobile device
Provided are a method, device, and non-transitory computer-readable recording medium for supporting relay broadcasting using a mobile device. It is possible to reduce a computing load of a relay device by distributing a computing load required to produce relay broadcasting content to a plurality of photographer devices and thus widen the range of photographer devices that may participate in relay broadcasting.
1. A method of supporting relay broadcasting using a mobile device, which is performed by a relay device, the method comprising:
receiving first sampling video data and first sampling audio data of first video data and first audio data, respectively, generated by a first photographer device and receiving second sampling video data and second sampling audio data of second video data and second audio data, respectively, generated by a second photographer device;
providing at least one of the first sampling video data, the first sampling audio data, the second sampling video data, and the second sampling audio data to the relay device; and
generating editing data for editing relay broadcasting content including at least one of the first sampling video data, the first sampling audio data, the second sampling video data, and the second sampling audio data with reference to an input of a repeater for editing at least one of the first sampling video data, the first sampling audio data, the second sampling video data, and the second sampling audio data,
wherein the generating editing data for editing relay broadcasting content comprises;
generating a first layer and at least one second layer to play and display on a screen the first sampling video data and the second sampling video data, wherein the first layer is configured to transmit the first sampling video data to the screen, and the at least one second layer is configured to transmit the first sampling video data and the second sampling video data to a part of the screen; and
controlling to play and display the first layer and the at least one second layer to be overlaid with each other on the screen through hierarchical combining.
2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the first photographer device and the second photographer device are physically included in one device.
3. The method of claim 1 , wherein:
quality of at least one of the first sampling video data, the first sampling audio data, the second sampling video data, and the second sampling audio data, which is transmitted from the first photographer device or the second photographer device and then received by the relay device, is adaptively determined based on an editing input;
a control signal for adaptively determining the quality is transmitted from the relay device to the first photographer device or the second photographer device;
quality of data to be edited is determined to be higher than quality of data not to be edited; and
quality of specific data to be edited is determined to be higher than quality of the specific data before or after it is determined that the specific data is to be edited.
4. The method of claim 1 , further switching the at least one second layer to the first layer and switch the first layer which has yet to be switched to the at least one second layer, when a screen switch event signal regarding one of the at least one second layer is received.
5. A device for supporting relay broadcasting using a mobile device, the device comprising:
a data receiver configured to receive first sampling video data and first sampling audio data of first video data and first audio data, respectively, generated by a first photographer device and receive second sampling video data and second sampling audio data of second video data and second audio data, respectively, generated by a second photographer device;
a relay broadcasting content editing processor configured to provide at least one of the first sampling video data, the first sampling audio data, the second sampling video data, and the second sampling audio data to a relay device and generate data for editing relay broadcasting content including at least one of the first sampling video data, the first sampling audio data, the second sampling video data, and the second sampling audio data with reference to an input of a repeater for editing at least one of the first sampling video data, the first sampling audio data, the second sampling video data, and the second sampling audio data;
a layer generating processor configured to generate a first layer and at least one second layer to play and display on a screen the first sampling video data and the second sampling video data, wherein the first layer is configured to transmit the first sampling video data to the screen, and the at least one second layer is configured to transmit the first sampling video data and the second sampling video data to a part of the screen; and
a display controlling processor configured to play and display the first layer and the at least one second layer to be overlaid with each other on the screen through hierarchical combining.
