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

    I am pretty sure many would disagree, but Kodi is complete trash. The whole software is a one massive utter slow bug.

    Anything else is better. Jellefin, Plex, VLC, but NOT kodi.

    EDIT: Honestly expected downvotes. Looks like I am not the only one who found Kodi basically unusable on any platform.

        I just wish the Flatpak had a more keyboard/controller friendly UI. Seeking around the current video using KB/controller is fine, but navigating the UI to pick what to watch pretty much requires a mouse.

        EDIT: Just change the display mode! Settings > Display > Display mode > TV
