| 摘要 | An example method involves: accessing a first list that includes ordered clip identifiers C1 . . . Cn separated at least into a first block of clip identifiers C1 . . . Cj and a second block of clip identifiers Cj+1 . . . Ck; accessing a second list that includes ordered player identifiers P1 . . . Px; assigning to each clip identifier C1 . . . Cj in order a respective one of the player identifiers P1 . . . Px selected in an ordered and looping fashion starting with one of the player identifiers P1 . . . Px; assigning to each clip identifier Cj+1 . . . Ck in order a respective one of the player identifiers P1 . . . Px selected in an ordered and looping fashion starting with the player identifier P1; and traversing the clip identifiers C1 . . . Ck, and for each traversed clip identifier, causing a player identified by the one of the player identifiers P1 . . . Px assigned to the traversed clip identifier to load a clip identified by the traversed clip identifier. | ||

| 主权项 | 1. A method comprising: accessing a first list that includes ordered clip identifiers C1 . . . Cn separated at least into a first block of clip identifiers C1 . . . Cn and a second block of clip identifiers Cj+1 . . . Ck; accessing a second list that includes ordered player identifiers P1 . . . Px, wherein x<k; assigning to each clip identifier C1 . . . Cj in order a respective one of the player identifiers P1 . . . Px selected in an ordered and looping fashion starting with one of the player identifiers P1 . . . Px such that the clip identifier Cj is assigned one of the player identifiers P1 . . . Px−1; assigning to each clip identifier Cj+1 . . . Ck in order a respective one of the player identifiers P1 . . . Px selected in an ordered and looping fashion starting with the player identifier P1; and traversing the clip identifiers C1 . . . Ck, and for each traversed clip identifier, causing a video player identified by the one of the player identifiers P1 . . . Px assigned to the traversed clip identifier to load a clip identified by the traversed clip identifier. | ||
