Abstract

Claims (29)

1 . A multimedia file distribution method, comprising:

determining an offsite calling associated number corresponding to at least one subscriber number, with the offsite calling associated number corresponding to the subscriber number being a number of a terminal with a number of calls to the subscriber number exceeding a first threshold, and a home location of the offsite calling associated number being different from a home location of the subscriber number corresponding to the offsite calling associated number; and

distributing a multimedia file associated with the subscriber number to a caller ring back tone platform of the home location of the offsite calling associated number corresponding to the subscriber number,

wherein the method further comprises:

determining a playing probability of the multimedia file, wherein the playing probability of the multimedia file is positively correlated with a correlation degree between the caller ring back tone and hot topics, videos or music; and

distributing the multimedia file with the playing probability exceeding a second threshold to the caller ring back tone platform.

2 . The multimedia file distribution method according to claim 1 , wherein the determining an offsite calling associated number corresponding to at least one subscriber number comprising:

determining locally stored information of a home location of a calling associated number corresponding to the subscriber number, with the calling associated number corresponding to the subscriber number being the number of the terminal with the number of calls to the subscriber number exceeding the first threshold; and

determining the calling associated number with the home location different from that of the subscriber number as the offsite calling associated number corresponding to the subscriber number.

3 . The multimedia file distribution method according to claim 2 , wherein the distributing a multimedia file associated with the subscriber number to a caller ring back tone platform of the home location of the offsite calling associated number corresponding to the subscriber number comprises:

determining, according to an identifier (ID) of the multimedia file associated with the subscriber number locally stored, the multimedia file associated with the subscriber number; and

distributing the determined multimedia file associated with the subscriber number to the caller ring back tone platform of the home location of the offsite calling associated number corresponding to the subscriber number.

4 . The multimedia file distribution method according to claim 1 , wherein the determining an offsite calling associated number corresponding to at least one subscriber number comprising:

receiving a calling associated number corresponding to the subscriber number sent from the caller ring back tone platform, with the calling associated number corresponding to the subscriber number being the number of the terminal with the number of calls to the subscriber number exceeding the first threshold;

determining information of a home location of the calling associated number; and

determining the calling associated number with the home location different from that of the subscriber number as the offsite calling associated number corresponding to the subscriber number.

5 . The multimedia file distribution method according to claim 4 , wherein the distributing a multimedia file associated with the subscriber number to a caller ring back tone platform of the home location of the offsite calling associated number corresponding to the subscriber number comprises:

receiving an identifier (ID) of the multimedia file associated with the subscriber number sent from the caller ring back tone platform;

determining, according to the ID of the multimedia file associated with the subscriber number, the multimedia file associated with the subscriber number; and

distributing the determined multimedia file associated with the subscriber number to the caller ring back tone platform of the home location of the offsite calling associated number corresponding to the subscriber number.

6 . The multimedia file distribution method according to claim 1 , further comprising:

distributing, in response to a first signaling sent from the caller ring back tone platform and carrying an identifier (ID) of a first multimedia file and a target number, the first multimedia file to a caller ring back tone platform of a home location of the target number according to the ID of the first multimedia file.

7 . The multimedia file distribution method according to claim 1 , further comprising:

distributing, in response to a second signaling sent from the caller ring back tone platform and carrying an identifier (ID) of a second multimedia file, the second multimedia file to the caller ring back tone platform of the home location of the offsite calling associated number corresponding to the subscriber number, with the subscriber number being at a home location of a caller ring back tone platform that sent the second signaling.

8 . A multimedia management platform, comprising:

at least one processor;

a memory storing at least one program thereon, the at least one program, when executed by the at least one processor, causes the at least one processor to implement the multimedia file distribution method according to claim 1 ; and

at least one I/O interface connected between the at least one processor and the memory, and configured to enable information interaction between the at least one processor and the memory.

9 . A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing a computer program thereon, the computer program, when executed by a processor, causes the multimedia file distribution method according to claim 1 to be implemented.
