Hi guys,

Is it possible to load the info of an item when the user press the info button?
I know we can resolve an video URL when the user play a video (using setResolveURL), in this case the trigger is the play and the URl define for the item will reaload the plugin, but can we trigger it on page info loading?

I am currently working on a plugin (addon) and for performance reason I would prefer to not ot have to load one XML per Item, it would be far better to load it when the user ask to see the info.

Can I do that somehow?

Thank you in advance.

It is mostly the same question than in this post: http://forum.xbmc.org/showthread.php?tid=85079

Not currently, no. You can replace the context menu though so you could do it via the mechanism.

It crossed my mind, but the problem is I can prevent the user to press to the info button (which will be empty in this case).
But that's still a good idea, it is still better than taking 1 minute to load a page, and still give to use the user the opportunity to see the detailled info.

I think it would be nice toi have such feature (similar to setResolveURL behavior) for item info,

Thank you Jmarshall, I think I am going to go this way.
