I recently started using Kodi for my linux distro collection, but some videos look terrible in comparison to when played in VLC. See attached picture with screengrabs from VLC and Kodi of the same frame in an MKV 1080p h.265 file. What could be the issue? I didn’t change any video settings in either

    Kodi doesn’t supply streams and the addons that people make to try and integrate them are pretty much all garbage. Now if you have your own local media library, that’s where kodi can shine…

      I have only seen it downloaded on a firestick and people search some sort of online database. I never knew it was more than that. Interesting.
