Thanks for the feedback guys, I have tried Amber skin, Bingie Mod, and Swan and have the same issue with frequent kodi crash when a show ends and it tries to load the widgets again. I guess I will try the same skin and see if it still happens. Thanks

Thanks for the help guys, I ended up trying Composite as the only addon installed in 19, along with a skin and it still happened. I gave up and reinstalled Kodi 18.9, and I still had a crash! This is on my 2019 Shield which 18.9 previously worked perfect for ages. Im sooo close to just using the plex app now, as the only reason im really using kodi now is for the nicer skins.
I will keep using 18.9 and see if the crashes still happen and try and get a log when i get time....

I was using this on Kodi 18 for a long time and had no problems. On Kodi 19.1, occasionally it won't play the video properly. Sometimes I can hear the sound, but I don't see anything. Other times it plays for a a second then skips forward (and it does that repeatedly). Other times the video is really choppy like my internet so too slow to play the video (my internet isn't the problem though).
If I close Kodi and then play the same video for a second in the official plex app and then go back to Kodi it works fine.
Also, I'm using a Nvidia Shield.

Small issue with subtitles and audio selection.
After a new start of kodi, the first video I play has wrong subtitle/audio selection. For the next played videos it is ok.
Normally, it should select the Plex provided value by instance "French AC3" Audio with "Forced French" subtitles. However, at the first start for videos having many option Composite or Kodi select the wrong one like "Englsh AC3" and English subtitles, I have to select them manually each time.
Is there a way to fix that somewhere?
Kodi 19.1 / Plex server on Synology 1.23.2.4600 / Composite 1.4.1

Couple of questions,
Is it possible to modify config file \ script to disable blurred background when searching library? I like the dark sleek theme we are using , but sometimes it is hard to notice which movie the cursor is on when navigating with Harmony remote, it blends too much with the blurred coverart. I know this is not a general request to change the addon for everyone, but would like to be able to manually do it my self, if i can learn which file and line needs to be adjusted.
Is there a way to config the app to still run if there is no LAN connection? i.e the router or internet is out. the HTPC has the local files and also runs plex server and runs Kodi with composite to open external player (MPC-HC)
