Subs in all media players being discussed here isn't an issue unless you're watching a 3D movie in 2D mode... opeters has said some subs (in HiMedia Q5, Zidoo X6, etc.) get blocked behind objects in various 3D planes. Haven't tested myself.

All I can say is when I've watched any of my 3D ISO's with forced subs on a 3D display ('Avatar', 'Captain America 2', 'The Martian' off the top of my head), or those w/subs throughout ('The Taking of Tiger Mountain' for example), I could read the subs just fine, whether HiMedia Q5 or RPi2.

Yep - and a Linux distro like OpenElec which is optimised for Kodi can mean that the video drivers, audio drivers etc. are fully integrated with Kodi (so stuff like deinterlacing, refresh rate, HD audio etc.) can be implemented more robustly and easily than on Android, where Kodi is just an app that has to run on an OS implemented by a third party and over which you have no control.
