I reinstalled 18.0 official. When i went to the add-on browser i was able to install 2.4.4. When i loaded a recording with an edl with the first line as "4.00    12.10    3", Kodi played for 4 seconds, then skipped to 12.10. You can try enabling debug (settings -> system -> Logging -> Enable Debug Logging) in kodi, then starting the recording. The Kodi debug log should show Edl Loading information.

Here is an excerpt from my kodi debug log: https://pastebin.com/1rGQSTjL

Let us know what you find.
