Description

Audio playing method, electronic equipment and readable storage medium

Technical Field

The embodiment of the invention relates to the technical field of communication, in particular to an audio playing method, electronic equipment and a readable storage medium.

Background

More and more software (music software, video software, book listening software, etc.) with audio playing functions are available, and many of the software have a background playing function, so that a user can still play the software normally after hiding the software in a background, and meanwhile, as the user demand increases, individual software also has a function of allowing the software to be played simultaneously with other applications, as shown in table 1, the software is horizontally arranged as a second playing source running on a current interface, and the software is vertically arranged as a first playing source running on the background, wherein:

(1) app1 has opened the "allow simultaneous play with other applications" setting;

(2) app2 has closed the "allow play with other applications" setting;

(3) app4 and App5 both start the setting of "background play";

(4) the "√" indicates that both can be played at the same time,

(5) "x" indicates that the second playback source will play and interrupt the first playback source;

	App1	App2	App3	App4	App5
						App1	-	√	√	√	√
App2	×	-	×	×	×
						App3	√	×	-	×	√
App4	×	×	×	-	√
						App5	√	√	√	√	-

TABLE 1

From the above table the following conclusions can be drawn:

(1) whether or not simultaneous playback is possible depends on settings within the playback source application;

(2) the policies of different apps may differ:

(3) both App4 and App5 can be played in a background, but the situation of whether simultaneous playing is supported is not consistent;

(3) the various apps are different in friendliness degree, and according to the table, when the App3 is played, the apps 2 and 4 can flexibly and actively break themselves.

Therefore, in the existing audio playing mode, each App has its own playing strategy, and when multiple playing sources run simultaneously, the user is difficult to predict the playing effect; in addition, when a user plays multiple audios simultaneously, the user finds that the strategies are not the strategies required by the user, and the user needs to enter each App independently for setting and adjustment, so that the operation is very complicated.

Optionally, the audio of the first playback source and the audio of the second playback source are played in left and right channels of the electronic device, respectively, and the volume of the first playback source is greater than the volume of the second playback source.

Under the condition that the play mode determined by the first input is a first play stopping mode, controlling the first play source to stop audio play and controlling the second play source to play audio;

in this embodiment of the present invention, the first play stop mode may also be referred to as a long-term switching mode, specifically, the first play stop mode stops the first play source and starts the audio play of the second play source, and after the second play source finishes playing, the audio play of the first play source is not automatically resumed, and the user may manually restart the audio play of the first play source.

And under the condition that the play mode determined by the first input is a second play stop mode, controlling the first play source to stop audio play, controlling the second play source to play audio, and controlling the first play source to resume audio play after the second play source stops audio play and is spaced for a preset time length.

In this embodiment of the present invention, the second play stop mode may also be referred to as a temporary switch mode, and specifically is to temporarily suspend the first play source, start audio playing of the second play source, and after the second play source is finished, interval a preset time (for example, 2 seconds, or set by a user), and then resume audio playing of the first play source.

Therefore, different playing modes are selected, the use requirements of the user in different scenes and under different conditions are met, and the use experience of the electronic equipment is improved.

Further, the method also comprises the following steps:

(1) receiving a second input of the user;

(2) configuring a playlist of playback sources in response to a second input;

in the embodiment of the present invention, the user may configure the playlist of the playback sources by the second input, and pre-select one or more playback sources in the playlist.
