The present disclosure discloses a media playing method, a terminal device, and a computer storage medium. The method includes dividing content of a target file in a time dimension to obtain N number of target sub-files, where N is an integer greater than or equal to 2; obtaining a first time point, and determining an nth target sub-file in the N number of target sub-files based on the first time point, where n being an integer greater than or equal to 1 and less than or equal to N. The method also includes setting a first player and a second player, and controlling the first player and the second player to alternatingly obtain and output the nth target sub-file and at least one target sub-file that is after the nth target sub-file.
