Hi jurialmunkey!
This isn't only an issue with your plugin but anything that loads when DialogVideoInfo is opened. The fps drop to ~25fps.
The FPS stays low until either scrolling many pages, exiting windows like going back to the home screen from MyVideoNav, or opening a new window like the one I have for displaying fullscreen fanart.
I think it is an old Kodi bug involving a threading issue where loading the plugin content throttles the rendering somehow... It may even be Microsoft Windows specific but not sure.
When I disable loading of content paths that use plugins the problem disappears.
Any ideas how to mitigate it on the skinning side?
Thanks
