Streaming media transmission method and apparatus, electronic device, and computer-readable storage medium

A streaming media transmission apparatus, comprising:

• at least one memory configured to store program code;
• and
• at least one processor configured to read the program code and operate as instructed by the program code, the program code comprising:
• signaling parsing code configured to cause the at least one processor to parse streaming media transmission signaling to obtain a ranking relationship descriptor of each streaming media object, the ranking relationship descriptor comprising a ranking identifier field and a ranking information field, the ranking identifier field being used for representing a ranking range, and the ranking information field being used as a ranking basis;
• object aggregation code configured to cause the at least one processor to form a ranking relationship set with at least two streaming media objects having the same ranking identifier field;
• object ranking code configured to cause the at least one processor to rank the at least two streaming media objects in the ranking relationship set according to the ranking information field to obtain a streaming media object sequence;
• and
• request transmission code configured to cause the at least one processor to select a to-be-received target streaming media object from the streaming media object sequence, and transmit a streaming media transmission request for the target streaming media object, the streaming media transmission request being used for requesting to acquire the target streaming media object.

A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium, storing instructions, which, when executed by at least one processor, cause the at least one processor to:

• parse streaming media transmission signaling to obtain a ranking relationship descriptor of each streaming media object, the ranking relationship descriptor comprising a ranking identifier field and a ranking information field, the ranking identifier field being used for representing a ranking range, and the ranking information field being used as a ranking basis;
• form a ranking relationship set with at least two streaming media objects having the same ranking identifier field;
• rank the at least two streaming media objects in the ranking relationship set according to the ranking information field to obtain a streaming media object sequence;
• select a to-be-received target streaming media object from the streaming media object sequence;
• and
• transmit a streaming media transmission request for the target streaming media object, the streaming media transmission request being used for requesting to acquire the target streaming media object.
