Trying to add List Refresh

[XBMCG33K]

I cannot figure out for the life of me where: xbmc.executebuiltin("Container.Refresh")
would go in all of this. Here is the code if anyone can help me out with a suggestion or two :)

To start with def Step0 correction -
code=re.sub(''','',link)

needs to be code=re.sub(" ' ",'',link) without the spaces of course, if not the whole program becomes a string.


What are you trying to refresh - video links ?

Try this :

[XBMCG33K]

Yes video links :)

[Nuka1195]

you want to refresh an exiting list created with a plugin?

there's the cacheToDisc option. is this something that would help?

i'm not sure what your doing.

[XBMCG33K]

To be honest it is a plugin for an adult site that allows you to watch trailers. The plugin still only views the first page, but the list is old and has been updated on the website.

make a new plugin from scratch and scrape the new info
