Probably a bad time to suggest the Jellyfin for Kodi plugin (since they removed the network paths in this version) but it's what I use for my main playback device.

All the goodies of playback via Kodi but play state and metadata gets synced from Jellyfin.

Another option of course would be to open the file(s) in MKVToolNix to add and correct the subtitle offset there.

Is that the native paths method they removed? I never used it and didn't understand the reason for it, but I'm guessing its useful for some users?

Yep. Kodi slows down significantly if you have a large library and play through the addon. Native paths fixed that issue by playing directly from a network share instead.

Right gotcha. My library is only a few TB so I guess it doesn't cause issues for me.

Tbh I'm waiting for Findroid to officially released its android TV client and then if it works well I might switch over from Kodi

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
