Abstract

Content of a video is parsed to identify one or more topics of the content. The video is divided into one or more video clips corresponding to a video playback of one or more topics. One or more titles corresponding to, and descriptive of, the one or more video clips are displayed. One or more visual effects corresponding to the one or more titles and indicative of corresponding playback statuses of the one or more video clip are displayed. A video clip is played, where the video clip is based on a particular title of the one or more titles selected from a time point determined based on a corresponding playback status of the video clip.

Claims (37)

1. A computer-implemented method, comprising:

parsing content of a video to identify two or more topics of the content;

dividing the video into two or more video clips corresponding to a video playback of the two or more topics;

displaying two or more titles corresponding to, and descriptive of, the two or more video clips;

displaying two or more visual effects corresponding to the two or more titles and indicative of corresponding playback statuses of the two or more video clips;

displaying a depiction of a product, wherein the product comprises two or more parts, wherein the depiction of the product shows the two or more parts and two or more labels, wherein each label of the two or more labels refers to at least one part of the two or more parts, wherein each label of the two or more labels is associated with a corresponding title of the two or more titles; and

playing a video clip based on a particular title of the two or more titles selected from a time point determined based on a corresponding playback status of the video clip, wherein the particular title is selected based on selecting a particular label of the two or more labels in the depiction.

2. The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , wherein the two or more topics are associated with at least one of features, parts, operational steps, or functional steps of a product.

3. The computer-implemented method of claim 2 , wherein the particular title of the two or more titles is selected based on selecting a corresponding label.

4. The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , wherein the two or more topics are associated with at least one of features, operational steps, or functional steps of a process.

5. The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , wherein the video is selected from a plurality of videos, and wherein the two or more titles are displayed on a graphical user interface using an arrangement based on the one or more topics of the content.

6. The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , further comprising playing another video clip with playback time in the video later than the video clip, wherein the another video clip is played from a time point determined based on a corresponding playback status of the another video clip.

7. A non-transitory, computer-readable medium storing one or more instructions executable by a computer system to perform operations comprising:

parsing content of a video to identify two or more topics of the content;

dividing the video into two or more video clips corresponding to a video playback of the two or more topics;

displaying two or more titles corresponding to, and descriptive of, the two or more video clips;

displaying two or more visual effects corresponding to the two or more titles and indicative of corresponding playback statuses of the two or more video clips;

displaying a depiction of a product, wherein the product comprises two or more parts, wherein the depiction of the product shows the two or more parts and two or more labels, wherein each label of the two or more labels refers to at least one part of the two or more parts, wherein each label of the two or more labels is associated with a corresponding title of the two or more titles; and

playing a video clip based on a particular title of the two or more titles selected from a time point determined based on a corresponding playback status of the video clip, wherein the particular title is selected based on selecting a particular label of the two or more labels in the depiction.

8. The non-transitory, computer-readable medium of claim 7 , wherein the two or more topics are associated with at least one of features, parts, operational steps, or functional steps of a product.

9. The non-transitory, computer-readable medium of claim 8 , wherein the particular title of the two or more titles is selected based on selecting a corresponding label.

10. The non-transitory, computer-readable medium of claim 7 , wherein the two or more topics are associated with at least one of features, operational steps, or functional steps of a process.

11. The non-transitory, computer-readable medium of claim 7 , wherein the video is selected from a plurality of videos, and wherein the two or more titles are displayed on a graphical user interface using an arrangement based on the two or more topics of the content.

12. The non-transitory, computer-readable medium of claim 7 , further comprising playing another video clip with playback time in the video later than the video clip, wherein the another video clip is played from a time point determined based on a corresponding playback status of the another video clip.

13. A computer-implemented system, comprising:

one or more computers; and

one or more computer memory devices interoperably coupled with the one or more computers and having tangible, non-transitory, machine-readable media storing one or more instructions that, when executed by the one or more computers, perform one or more operations comprising:

parsing content of a video to identify two or more topics of the content;

dividing the video into two or more video clips corresponding to a video playback of the two or more topics;

displaying two or more titles corresponding to, and descriptive of, the two or more video clips;

displaying two or more visual effects corresponding to the two or more titles and indicative of corresponding playback statuses of the two or more video clips;

displaying a depiction of a product, wherein the product comprises two or more parts, wherein the depiction of the product shows the two or more parts and two or more labels, wherein each label of the two or more labels refers to at least one part of the two or more parts, wherein each label of the two or more labels is associated with a corresponding title of the two or more titles; and

playing a video clip based on a particular title of the two or more titles selected from a time point determined based on a corresponding playback status of the video clip, wherein the particular title is selected based on selecting a particular label of the two or more labels in the depiction.

14. The computer-implemented system of claim 13 , wherein the two or more topics are associated with at least one of features, parts, operational steps, or functional steps of a product, and wherein the particular title of the one or more titles is selected based on selecting a corresponding label.

15. The computer-implemented system of claim 13 , wherein the two or more topics are associated with at least one of features, operational steps, or functional steps of a process.

16. The computer-implemented system of claim 13 , wherein the video is selected from a plurality of videos, and wherein the two or more titles are displayed on a graphical user interface using an arrangement based on the two or more topics of the content.

17. The computer-implemented system of claim 13 , further comprising playing another video clip with playback time in the video later than the video clip, wherein the another video clip is played from a time point determined based on a corresponding playback status of the another video clip.
