I want to see how it would be possible to select without having to wait to load all the movies

If loading the movies is taking a long time, then your best bet is probably to make the web request asynchronously, so you're not blocking the UI during the request.

and how it would have this function jsonAsString = CreateObject("roUrlTransfer") jsonAsString.SetURL(URL()+"/movie.php?cat="+HttpEncode(category)) json = ParseJson(jsonAsString.GetToString()) return json.Videos

please help with this so we can select without having to wait to load the Seciones

To make the API requests asynchronously, you'll basically need to use ifUrlTransfer.AsyncGetToString(), then listen for roUrlEvents in your event loop. Once you get the result back, you can then set the contents for the grid screen row(s).

Alternatively, you could opt to work with SceneGraph instead, and utilize the Task node for retrieving your content.

My friend could help with this please do not understand how to do it
