but there's a problem now, it slow so much the browsing, i mean it's normal i know but there's a way to cache that cc once it loads? and another question, how can i enable the cc in a specific subfolder only?

The use "Browse" instead of "List" for the trigger in that cc

it's already on browse, but that would fix which of the two problem? the caching or the showing cc only in that subfolder?

There is no caching but it only invokes mediainfo for the current visible items instead for all existing ones. There are other methods possible to get a really fast custom column but this wouldn't be fully automatic but would require an additional script that would need to be executed to update the "cache" (in reality this would be file / permanent variable that contains all items and their resolutions)...
Next option:
A cc script that invokes the property() command of XY and only if this doesn't return a resolution, mediainfo is used instead. That would require a codec pack, at least if the used Windows OS doesn't already have a codec installed for the file format...

It requires scripting capabilities
what do you mean by update manually?
The additional script must be executed manually (button, user command, catalog, whatever) to update the cache

Make sure that
Configuration | Colors and Styles | Styles | Apply list styles globally
is not ticked
and use Menu - View - Folder View Settings - Save Folder View
after you have added the column to your current folder in the list view
