Abstract

A video merging method, a device, an equipment and a medium are provided, and the method includes: obtaining a first video clip and a second video clip which are to be merged; performing image processing on the first video clip and the second video clip, wherein the first video clip after the image processing and the second video clip after the image processing have a same picture display effect, in which the picture display effect includes an image quality and/or a picture style; performing audio processing on the first video clip and the second video clip, wherein the first video clip after the audio processing and the second video clip after the audio processing have a same background sound; and merging the first video clip after the image processing and the audio processing with the second video clip after the image processing and the audio processing.

Claims (41)

1 . A video merging method, comprising:

obtaining a first video clip and a second video clip which are to be merged;

performing image processing on the first video clip and the second video clip, wherein the first video clip after the image processing and the second video clip after the image processing have a same picture display effect, and wherein the picture display effect comprises an image quality and/or a picture style;

performing audio processing on the first video clip and the second video clip, wherein the first video clip after the audio processing and the second video clip after the audio processing have a same background sound; and

merging the first video clip after the image processing and the audio processing with the second video clip after the image processing and the audio processing;

the performing audio processing on the first video clip and the second video clip comprises:

obtaining an original background sound of the first video clip and an original background sound of the second video clip, comprising: extracting a first specified type of sound contained in the first video clip, and using other sounds except the first specified type of sound as the original background sound of the first video clip, and extracting a second specified type of sound contained original background sound of the second video clip;

determining a target background sound; and

converting both the original background sound of the first video clip and the original background sound of the second video clip into the target background sound.

2 . The method according to claim 1 , wherein the performing image processing on the first video clip and the second video clip comprises:

determining a target picture display effect; and

converting both an original picture display effect of the first video clip and an original picture display effect of the second video clip into the target picture display effect.

3 . The method according to claim 2 , wherein the determining the target picture display effect comprises:

using a preset picture display effect as the target picture display effect; or

determining the target picture display effect according to the original picture display effect of the first video clip and the original picture display effect of the second video clip.

4 . The method according to claim 3 , wherein the picture display effect comprises the image quality and the picture style;

the determining the target picture display effect according to the original picture display effect of the first video clip and the original picture display effect of the second video clip comprises:

selecting one of an original image quality of the first video clip and an original image quality of the second video clip as a target image quality;

selecting one of an original picture style of the first video clip and an original picture style of the second video clip as a target picture style; and

determining the target picture display effect based on the target image quality and the target picture style.

5 . The method according to claim 4 , wherein the selecting one of the original image quality of the first video clip and the original image quality of the second video clip as the target image quality comprises:

selecting one of the original image quality of the first video clip and the original image quality of the second video clip as the target image quality according to a preset quality selection strategy; wherein the quality selection strategy comprises: quality selection based on user instructions or quality selection based on an image quality comparison result between the first video clip and the second video clip.

6 . The method according to claim 4 , wherein the selecting one of the original picture style of the first video clip and the original picture style of the second video clip as the target picture style comprises:

selecting one of the original picture style of the first video clip and the original picture style of the second video clip as the target picture style according to a preset style selection strategy; wherein the style selection strategy comprises: style selection based on user instructions, style selection based on video sources, or style selection based on clip sorting positions.

7 . The method according to claim 2 , wherein the converting the original picture display effect of the first video clip and the original picture display effect of the second video clip into the target picture display effect comprises:

determining the original picture display effect that is inconsistent with the target picture display effect based on the original picture display effect of the first video clip and the original picture display effect of the second video clip, and using the inconsistent original picture display effect as a picture display effect to be converted;

converting the original image quality in the picture display effect to be converted into the target image quality in the target picture display effect by using a preset image quality conversion algorithm; wherein the image quality conversion algorithm comprises a conversion algorithm between Low Dynamic Range (LDR) and High Dynamic Range (HDR); and

migrating the target picture style in the target picture display effect to the picture display effect to be converted by using a preset style migration algorithm, so that the original picture style of the picture display effect to be converted is adjusted to match the target picture style.

8 . The method according to claim 1 , wherein the determining the target background sound comprises:

using a preset background sound as the target background sound; or

determining the target background sound based on the original background sound of the first video clip and the original background sound of the second video clip.

9 . The method according to claim 8 , wherein the determining the target background sound based on the original background sound of the first video clip and the original background sound of the second video clip comprises:

selecting one of the original background sound of the first video clip and the original background sound of the second video clip as the target background sound; or

fusing the original background sound of the first video clip and the original background sound of the second video clip to obtain the target background sound.

10 . The method according to claim 1 , wherein the converting both the original background sound of the first video clip and the original background sound of the second video clip into the target background sound comprises:

deleting the original background sound of the first video clip and the original background sound of the second video clip; and

uniformly adding the target background sound to the first video clip and the second video clip.

11 . An electronic equipment, comprising:

a processor; and

a memory configured to store executable instructions executable by the processor;

wherein the processor is configured to read the executable instructions from the memory and execute the instructions to implement the video merging method according to claim 1 .
