Delay loading of posters in gridscreen / rowlist

I need to be able to either:

1. Call EnableHostVerification() for each poster, or

2. Manually download the poster to tmp:/ and update the HDPosterUrl to point to it (for performance reasons, do it after the grid already shown)

 

I didn't find a way to do #1 (no access to ifUrlTransfer).

When I implement #2, because the original urls failed to download, the poster gets a transparency treatment that I'm unable to remove when I update the poster with the succcessfully downloaded poster.

Any advice?

Hi @EyalA,

Have you looked at Grid Screen channel in the SceneGraph master sample channel. It demonstrates how to load posters from the thumbnails in a content feed into a RowList component.

I looked and I'm not sure how it helps me solve the problem. Can you elaborate?
