Hi.

I use <content>plugin://..[whatever]..&pleaseRefresh=randomnumber</content> A LOT. But now it seems to have been really fücked up?
The content does not refresh when the URL changes! Rather it waits until the panel becomes visible?! and THEN it refreshes. WHY?!?

This behaviour causes a lot of PAIN as I cannot fade between panels AND it even causes erroneous behaviour as panel-lists aren't updated with fresh content!!
xbmc.executebuiltin('Container.Refresh') does nothing to help with this.

Oh, and a happy whatever doesn't offend you.. Team Gooby... See you all next year.

Did nobody else notice this? No..
Do no one else rely on updated lists? Probably..
Do you think it is only messed up at my place? You most likely do.. don't you?

Does anydevs know if this is an intended change in behaviour for Jarvis?

I figured it out. What has changed is this:
the delay in an animation effect is causing the same delay in preparing the content!
I consider this a bug.

I work around by adding a dummy animation effect that does nothing before the actual effect. Like this:

Code:

<animation type="visible" reversible="false">
    <effect type="zoom" start="100" end="100" time="1" delay="0"/>
    <effect type="fade" start="0" end="100" time="200" delay="200"/>
</animation>

I realize the "solution" (god damn there are many workaounds) belongs in skinning, but here it is.. take it or leave it.
