A method for uploading and downloading streaming media resources, distribution system and streaming media server

A method for downloading streaming media resources by a streaming server, comprising:

• receiving an acquisition request for a target streaming media resource from a stream-pulling client;
• determining whether the target streaming media resource exists locally, and if the target streaming media resource exists locally, generating an access address for accessing the target streaming media resource;
• and
• feeding back the access address and target streaming media information associated with the target streaming media resource to the stream-pulling client, to allow the stream-pulling client to obtain the target streaming media resource based on the access address and the target streaming media information.

A distribution system for streaming media resources, comprising a stream-pushing client and a streaming media server, wherein:

• the stream-pushing client is configured to determine candidate streaming media information supported by the stream-pushing client, send an uploading request for a target streaming media resource to the streaming media server, wherein the uploading request includes the candidate streaming media information, receive a first response message returned by the streaming media server, wherein the first response message includes response streaming media information and an access address generated by the streaming media server, process the target streaming media resource according to the response streaming media information, and according to the access address, upload the processed target streaming media resource;
• and
• the streaming media server is configured to generate the response streaming media information based on the candidate streaming media information, generate the access address for accessing the target streaming media resource, feed back the first response message including the response streaming media information and the access address to the stream-pushing client, receive the processed target streaming media resource uploaded by the stream-pushing client, and associate and store the processed target streaming media resource with the response streaming media information.
