Should a json library update cause all library image textures to refresh? - realcopacetic - 2023-02-11
I have a button that runs a script to set a listitem's userrating using a json call: 'AudioLibrary.SetSongDetails'.
I notice that whenever this is run, all the image controls with textures from the library (e.g. ListItem.Art(xyz)) are refreshed.
Video here showing what I mean: https://www.loom.com/share/f4c07fd7926d43b7b27e1905866bb312
Is this an issue anyone else sees when updating something in the library via JSON? I wonder if it could be a result as well of the fact I'm running my library remotely via mySQL, because I certainly notice that it takes a moment longer to load the images for albums than it did when I ran the library locally.
Edit: Please ignore the low fps/ stuttery nature of the video. I access my development PC via remote desktop which doesn't play nice with video so the stream gets quite choppy when you're doing more than desktop browsing.

I think anything that makes a change to the library will force the view to refresh and the images will therefore reload, for example just marking an item as watched or unwatched:-

Yeah you're right I didn't think about that. Thanks @roidy. Annoying bit can't be avoided I suppose!
