COMPUTER-READABLE STORAGE MEDIUM, TERMINAL, AND METHOD
A computer-readable tangible non-transitory storage medium storing a program causing a terminal to: display a first user interface object representing a gift of a first type on a display while video data related to a live-stream is reproduced; process data for realizing an effect for the gift represented by the first user interface object upon acceptance of selection of the first user interface object by a user of the terminal, the data being stored in a holding unit of the terminal; display a second user interface object representing a gift of a second type on the display while the video data is reproduced; and start download of data for realizing an effect for the gift represented by the second user interface object upon acceptance of selection of the second user interface object by the user.
1 . A computer-readable tangible non-transitory storage medium storing a program causing a terminal to:
display a first user interface object representing a gift of a first type on a display while video data related to a live-stream is reproduced;
process data for realizing an effect for the gift represented by the first user interface object upon acceptance of selection of the first user interface object by a user of the terminal, the data being stored in a holding unit of the terminal;
display a second user interface object representing a gift of a second type on the display while the video data is reproduced; and
start download of data for realizing an effect for the gift represented by the second user interface object upon acceptance of selection of the second user interface object by the user.
2 . The computer-readable tangible non-transitory storage medium of claim 1 , wherein the program further causes the terminal to display an indicator indicating status of the download in association with the second user interface object on the display.
3 . The computer-readable tangible non-transitory storage medium of claim 1 , wherein the program further causes the terminal to start download of the data for realizing the effect for the gift of the first type before the selection of the first user interface object without an instruction from the user.
4 . The computer-readable tangible non-transitory storage medium of claim 3 ,
wherein the starting the download of the data without the instruction from the user includes starting the download of the data for realizing the effect for the gift of the first type specified by referring a list before the selection of the first user interface object without the instruction from the user, and
wherein the list is configured to be updatable.
5 . The computer-readable tangible non-transitory storage medium of claim 1 wherein the download of the data for realizing the effect for the gift of the second type is not started before the second user interface object is selected.
6 . The computer-readable tangible non-transitory storage medium of claim 1 wherein the download of the data for realizing the effect for the gift of the second type has a higher priority than download of the data for realizing the effect for the gift of the first type.
7 . The computer-readable tangible non-transitory storage medium of claim 1 , wherein the program further causes the terminal to start download of data for realizing an effect for a gift used by another user of another terminal to which the video data is streamed,
wherein the download of the data for realizing the effect for the gift used by another user has a higher priority than the download of the data for realizing the effect for the gift of the first type, and
wherein the download of the data for realizing the effect for the gift of the second type has a higher priority than the download of the data for realizing the effect for the gift used by another user.
8 . The computer-readable tangible non-transitory storage medium of claim 1 , wherein the program further causes the terminal to start download of data for realizing effects for gifts without an instruction from the user, regardless of their gift types, when attributes of the user meet a predetermined criterion.
9 . A terminal, comprising:
a holding unit;
a displaying unit displaying a first user interface object representing a gift of a first type on a display while video data related to a live-stream is reproduced;
a processing unit processing data for realizing an effect for the gift represented by the first user interface object upon acceptance of selection of the first user interface object by a user of the terminal, the data being stored in the holding unit;
a displaying unit displaying a second user interface object representing a gift of a second type on the display while the video data is reproduced; and
a download starting unit starting download of data for realizing an effect for the gift represented by the second user interface object upon acceptance of selection of the second user interface object by the user.
10 . The terminal of claim 9 , wherein an indicator indicating status of the download is displayed in association with the second user interface object on the display.
11 . The terminal of claim 9 , wherein download of the data for realizing the effect for the gift of the first type is started before the selection of the first user interface object without an instruction from the user.
12 . The terminal of claim 11 , wherein the starting the download of the data without the instruction from the user includes starting the download of the data for realizing the effect for the gift of the first type specified by referring a list before the selection of the first user interface object without the instruction from the user, and
wherein the list is configured to be updatable.
13 . The terminal of claim 9 , wherein the download of the data for realizing the effect for the gift of the second type is not started before the second user interface object is selected.
14 . The terminal of claim 9 , wherein the download of the data for realizing the effect for the gift of the second type has a higher priority than download of the data for realizing the effect for the gift of the first type.
15 . The terminal of claim 9 , wherein the download starting unit starts download of data for realizing an effect for a gift used by another user of another terminal to which the video data is streamed,
wherein the download of the data for realizing the effect for the gift used by another user has a higher priority than the download of the data for realizing the effect for the gift of the first type, and
wherein the download of the data for realizing the effect for the gift of the second type has a higher priority than the download of the data for realizing the effect for the gift used by another user.
16 . The terminal of claim 9 , wherein download of data for realizing effects for gifts is started without an instruction from the user, regardless of their gift types, when attributes of the user meet a predetermined criterion.
17 . A method performed in a terminal, comprising:
displaying a first user interface object representing a gift of a first type on a display while video data related to a live-stream is reproduced;
processing data for realizing an effect for the gift represented by the first user interface object upon acceptance of selection of the first user interface object by a user of the terminal, the data being stored in a holding unit of the terminal;
displaying a second user interface object representing a gift of a second type on the display while the video data is reproduced; and
starting download of data for realizing an effect for the gift represented by the second user interface object upon acceptance of selection of the second user interface object by the user.
