MyList and Search and some other stuff not working 404 not found url #360

It appears they made some changes to the platform or it could just be me for some weird reason. When trying to access "my list" I get:

404 Client Error: Not Found for url: https://lfvp-api.dpgmedia.net/VTM_GO/detail/215458xxxx-xx-xxx

It also shows similar problems for search and other things Although when I go into a folder that doesn't need to search and find episodes or files, it's working fine Live TV for all channels is working fine...

So it seems clear to me the issue is not with me, but with that URL really not existing (for the moment)

Cheers, Groetjes,

Ben

Hi, have you tried clearing the cache? Via addon settings, expert, "Maak cache leeg".

To the developers and on a sidenote: I notice often enough that this cache needs to be cleared. What is in this cache? Looking through the code I see it stores the id's of retrieved programs or movies. What is the reason behind caching this? Does the cache contain data that is supposed to survive a restart of Kodi? If so, what could be a reasonable interval to auto-clear the cache? If not, could it be an idea to auto-clear the cache on startup of the addon? Just some questions/ideas...

I need to make an API call to get the description for a movie or series. By caching this, I can show the description in the categories without having to query them all.

It's odd that it happens during a search, since as far as I can remember, I don't cache search results.
