  • Probably a bad time to suggest the Jellyfin for Kodi plugin (since they removed the network paths in this version) but it’s what I use for my main playback device.

    All the goodies of playback via Kodi but play state and metadata gets synced from Jellyfin.

    Another option of course would be to open the file(s) in MKVToolNix to add and correct the subtitle offset there.

  • Do you use the plugin mode (access via HTTP) or the direct mode (access directly via SMB)?

    Music libraries are a mess in plugin mode.

    Still not the best UI in the world but it’s the only Jellyfin player I found that can do seamless refresh rate switching, HDR playback, audio passthrough and has no issues with high bitrate 4k60 hardware decoding.




  • gamescope is a mess inside of Flatpak as of right now. Some issue with using Proton inside of gamescope inside of Flatpak.

    I played Alan Wake 2 using the native Heroic version and native gamescope.

    The gamescope version still needs to be pretty recent. After starting the game make sure its brightness does not change when you play with the SDR intensity slider. If it does, it’s not using HDR.

    Also, Alan Wake is a pretty bleak looking game in general so you might want to pop some flares to bring some color for testing.
