Method, device and system for implementing seeking play of stream media
First Claim
1. A method for seeking play of stream media, comprising:
- sending a seeking play request to a stream media server by a stream media terminal;
receiving preview key frames for seeking play sent from the stream media server by the stream media terminal according to a predefined buffer capacity range and storing the preview key frames for seeking play;
sending a response message to the stream media server to inform the stream media server that the stream media terminal is unable to receive data at a time point when the predefined buffer capacity range is not available, such that the predefined buffer capacity range can no longer store another incoming preview key frame;
displaying the preview key frames for seeking play according to the seeking play request of a user when the user seeks the stream media hop by hop through clicking; and
initiating a stream media play according to preview key frames selected by a seeking of a user,wherein the stream media server continues sending the preview key frame corresponding to a time point following the time point when the predefined buffer capacity range is not available.

Abstract
A method, a device and a system for implementing seeking play of stream media are provided. The method for implementing seeking play of stream media includes: sending a seeking play request to a stream media server; receiving preview key frames for seeking play sent from the stream media server according to a predefined buffer capacity range and storing the preview key frames for seeking play; displaying the preview key frames for seeking play; and initiating a stream media play according to preview key frames selected by a seeking of a user. This invention can improve the seeking operation experience of the user, control the downloading time of the extracted program, and reduce requirements of storage capability of the stream media terminal.

12. A method for seeking play of stream media, comprising a stream media terminal and a stream media server, the stream media terminal being connected with a stream media server via a network, wherein the stream media terminal is adapted to:
-
sending a seeking play request to the stream media server;
receive preview key frame data for seeking play sent from the stream media server according to a predefined buffer capacity range and store the preview key frame data;sending a response message to the stream media server to inform the stream media server that the stream media terminal is unable to receive data at a time point when the predefined buffer capacity range is not available, such that the predefined buffer capacity range can no longer store another incoming preview key frame; displaying the preview key frame data in a preview manner according to a seeking operation request from the user when the user seeks the stream media hop by hop through clicking; and initiating a stream media play according to preview key frames selected by a seeking of the user; wherein the stream media server is adapted to; receiving and processing the seeking play request sent from the stream media terminal; selecting the preview key frame data for seeking play according to the seeking play request; sending the preview key frame data for seeking play to the stream media terminal; and
continue sending by the stream media server, the preview key frame corresponding to a time point following the time point when the predefined buffer capacity range is not available.
