It's seem like when exiting fullscreen video and returning to the previous plugin window then Kodi is forcing .

Is it a bug or intended in Kodi-17 only?

Code:

xbmc.executebuiltin('Container.Refresh')

.

I can not answer if it is a bug, but this happens in KODI 16 everytime a window loses focus to another window that is not a dialog. One issue I have been trying to find a way to prevent.

Can confirm.
happens on my libreelec & win10 with kodi 17 beta 7
did not happen on alpha 2

EDIT:
also not present in kodi 15.2

It looks like Krypton doesn't cache the directory in the addon anymore. That's why it refreshes the directory.

Here is an example addon that mimics the 'problem': https://www.dropbox.com/s/oko56xx0lyfg1i...e.zip?dl=0

Try this in Jarvis and Krypton.
In Jarvis, after playback, you will get back to the list...which is cached (I presume). In Krypton, it reloads the list...restarting the 'searching for video' stuff in this example.

Nice, it's been put back: https://github.com/xbmc/xbmc/commit/fb8a...9a2faa7397

Great news idd!

It's not implemented yet ? Or I have a problem to use it ?

Not yet implemented.

- Win10 on kodi 17.0

we'll hopefully get it right in kodi 17.1
