1. A method for playlist generation, executed by a playlist generator, comprising:
obtaining a first stream portion information and a unique key from a first streaming server;
determining a first set of stream portions stored on a space of a cloud server to be consistent with the first stream portion information, the space being addressable by the unique key;
generating a playlist file according to the first stream portion information;
obtaining a second stream portion information and the unique key from a second streaming server;
determining a second set of stream portions stored on the space of the cloud server to be consistent with the second stream portion information, wherein the first set of stream portions and the second set of stream portions belong to same stream file corresponding to the unique key; and
updating the playlist file from a bottom of a content of the playlist file according to the second stream portion information without replacing or overwriting the content of the playlist file, wherein the first set of stream portion is transmitted from a user terminal to the first streaming server for being transmitted to the cloud server before the user terminal suffers an Internet disconnection, and the second set of stream portion is transmitted from the user terminal to the second streaming server for being transmitted to the cloud server after the Internet disconnection recovers.
