Abstract

A method, system and apparatus for uploading and downloading a caption file are disclosed. The method includes: receiving, by a caption server, file information of a multimedia file and file information of a caption file corresponding to the multimedia file from a client end player; determining, by the caption server, whether the caption server has the caption file according to the file information of the caption file and transmitting a status message indicating whether the caption server has the caption file to the client end player, to enable the client end player to upload the caption file when determining according to the status message that the caption server does not have the caption file. In the solution of the present disclosure, the client end player can upload and download the caption file automatically. The user does not need to search for and download the caption file manually, which improves the user's experience and saves resources of the caption server.
