Video-related chat message management server and video-related chat message management program

1. A video-related chat message management server comprising:

a memory for storing a chat message synchronized with a playback time of a specific video content played in at least one user terminal from among specific video contents provided from at least one video playback platform; and

at least one processor to implement a chat message providing module that provides a—the chat message stored in the memory such that the chat message is displayed in synchronization with the playback time of the specific video contents when the specific video contents are played back,

wherein the chat message providing module includes a video content processing unit which sets a plurality of time stamps indicating when the chat message is to be exposed in synchronization with the playback time of the specific video contents, and

wherein the video content processing unit is configured to, when the playback time of the specific video contents reaches any one of the plurality of time stamps, differentially delay an exposure time of the chat message based on a cumulative number of the chat message such that chat messages having a relatively larger cumulative number are further delayed than chat messages having a relatively smaller cumulative number.

2. The video-related chat message management server of claim 1 , wherein the chat message providing module includes a chat message processing unit which is configured to group at least two chat messages composed of a same phrase such that the grouped chat messages are displayed as one representative chat message, and which is configured to display any one or a combination of a number and a mark representing a number of the grouped chat messages on one side of the one representative chat message.

3. The video-related chat message management server of claim 1 , wherein the video content processing unit is configured to expose the chat message at a time point when any one of the time stamps is designated by a user who plays the specific video content.

4. The video-related chat message management server of claim 1 , wherein the video content processing unit is configured to automatically expose the chat message whenever the specific video contents being played reach any one of the plurality of time stamps.

5. The video-related chat message management server of claim 1 , wherein the video content processing unit is further differentially delay the exposure time of the chat message according to at least one of a sentence length of the chat message, and a form of the chat message.

6. The video-related chat message management server of claim 1 , wherein the memory stores a plurality of specific video contents provided from a plurality of video playback platforms, respectively, and

the chat message providing module includes a video synchronization unit for synchronizing screens of the plurality of specific video contents such that the screens match each other over time.

7. A non-transitory computer-readable recording medium having a video-related chat message management program for executing steps of:

allowing a user who has downloaded and installed a chat message management application provided from a video-related chat message management server or a user who has accessed a chat message management website provided from the chat message management server to login;

receiving a chat message synchronized with a playback time of a specific video content from among specific video contents provided from at least one video playback platform;

storing the chat message in a database; and

when the specific video contents are played back, controlling the chat message stored in the database to be displayed in synchronization with the playback time of the specific video contents,

wherein the controlling includes:

setting a plurality of time stamps indicating when the chat message is to be exposed in synchronization with the playback time of the specific video contents; and

when the playback time of the specific video contents reaches any one of the plurality of time stamps, differentially delaying an exposure time of the chat message based on a cumulative number of the chat message such that chat messages having a relatively larger cumulative number are further delayed than chat messages having a relatively smaller cumulative number.
