Hello, can you help me with this question? I think I probably made it in the wrong place because it's about this addon, here is the question: 342055 (thread)
Basically what I'm wondering is if it's possible for this addon to run the code that scrapes the source code of a website only when the video item is clicked? I just don't want to scrape the website 2 or 3 times everytime I want to click the item, and it even does the scraping if I don't really have the intention of clicking the link that uses this function.
Sorry if this is some python issue more than an addon issue, I'm having trouble understanding the way an addon runs, do the variables get reset every time an user clicks a folder or item?
