Cache extracted/scraped video - aam137 - 2020-10-01

Hi,

I was wondering if there is a way to cache the extracted video to speed up the video addon, which scrapes/download videos from some online sources as well as youtube. The addon takes so much time to start every time.

Basically, I am looking for some try/catch scenario, where the cached video(previously extracted) failed to run(which is most likely to happen since video URLs getting updated time to time), then try to redownload them and update the cached video.

I am not asking for the Python code! I am interested to know if Kodi has this capability or not?

Cheers!
