Abstract
An information processing method applied in an electric device is disclosed. The method comprises: acquiring at least one play parameter for characterizing a playing history of a first video from the network side and/or a storage unit of an electric device; generating and displaying a play progress bar corresponding to the first video on a display unit of the electric device based on the at least one play parameter, wherein the play progress bar has at least a first portion displayed in a first pattern and a second portion displayed in a second pattern different from the first pattern. Such solution provided by the invention provides a new display approach for the play progress bar, and addresses the technical problem that a video can only be segmented or prompted by the play progress bar of the video according to the content of the video. This new display method of the play progress bar does not depend on the content of the video itself and may reflect intuitively how much the user who once played a video is interested in different segments of the video.
