5. The method according to claim 2 , wherein obtaining, by the electronic device, the frame rate of each video source file of the at least one video source file comprises:

performing, by the electronic device, the following operations on each video source file of the at least one video source file, to obtain the frame rate of each of the at least one video source file:

obtaining, by the electronic device, a frame rate in attribute information of the respective video source file; or

searching, by the electronic device, a search platform for the respective video source file, to obtain a frame rate of the respective video source file from the search platform; or

calculating, by the electronic device, the frame rate of the respective video source file based on a characteristic parameter of the respective video source file, wherein the characteristic parameter comprises a size, duration, and resolution.

6. The method according to claim 1 , wherein:

the second refresh rate and the third refresh rate are pre-configured; or

the second refresh rate and the third refresh rate are set by the electronic device in response to a setting operation of a user.

7. An electronic device, comprising:

a display, a memory, and one or more processors, wherein the display and the memory are coupled to the one or more processors;

wherein the memory stores computer program code, the computer program code comprises computer instructions, and when the computer instructions are executed by the one or more processors, the electronic device is enabled to perform the following:

start playing a first video file at a first refresh rate in response to a first operation;

after starting to play the first video file at the first refresh rate, when the electronic device receives an interaction operation, adjusting, by the electronic device, a refresh rate of the display to a second refresh rate based on the interaction operation, wherein the second refresh rate is equal to a maximum refresh rate of the display; and

after receiving the interaction operation, when the electronic device does not receive any further interaction operation within a preset duration from a time point of receiving the interaction operation, the first video file is being played, and a first frame rate of the first video file is greater than a second frame rate corresponding to a third refresh rate, adjusting the refresh rate of the display to the third refresh rate, wherein the third refresh rate is less than the second refresh rate; and

after receiving the interaction operation, when the electronic device does not receive any further interaction operation within the preset duration, the first video file is being played, and the first frame rate of the first video file is less than or equal to the second frame rate corresponding to the third refresh rate, adjusting the refresh rate of the display to a fourth refresh rate, wherein the third refresh rate is used to display the first video file in the case of not receiving the interaction operation within the preset duration, and the second refresh rate is used to support an animation effect while playing the first video file.

8. The electronic device according to claim 7 , wherein when the computer instructions are executed by the one or more processors, the electronic device is further enabled to perform the following:
