- All kinds of workarounds are needed to get the best experience on Kodi clients
This addon synchronizes your media on your Plex server to the native Kodi database. Because we use the native Kodi database with this new approach the above limitations are gone!
- You can browse your media full speed, e.g. images are cached

You have to setup all your Plex libraries to point to such network paths. Do have a look at [the wiki here](https://github.com/croneter/PlexKodiConnect/wiki/Direct-Paths)

**Known Issues:**
Solutions are unlikely due to the nature of these issues
- *Plex Music when using Addon paths instead of Native Direct Paths:* Kodi tries to scan every(!) single Plex song on startup. This leads to errors in the Kodi log file and potentially even crashes. (Plex puts each song in a "dedicated folder", e.g. 'http://192.168.1.1:32400/library/parts/749450/'. Kodi unsuccessfully tries to scan these folders)
- *Plex Music when using Addon paths instead of Native Direct Paths:* Kodi tries to scan every(!) single Plex song on startup. This leads to errors in the Kodi log file and potentially even crashes. See the [Github issue](https://github.com/croneter/PlexKodiConnect/issues/14) for more details
- *Plex Music when using Addon paths instead of Native Direct Paths:* You must have a static IP address for your Plex media server if you plan to use Plex Music features
- If something on the PMS has changed, this change is synced to Kodi. Hence if you rescan your entire library, a long PlexKodiConnect re-sync is triggered
- External Plex subtitles (in separate files, e.g. mymovie.srt) can be used, but it is impossible to label them correctly/tell what language they are in. However, this is not the case if you use direct paths
- If using Addon Paths: In the TV show video nodes On Deck and Recently Added, Kodi will not display the Episode Information screen if you push "i". This is a Kodi issue. It does work if you use Direct Paths
- External Plex subtitles (in separate files, e.g. mymovie.srt) can be used, but it is impossible to label them correctly and tell what language they are in. However, this is not the case if you use direct paths
*Background Sync:*
The Plex Server does not tell anyone of the following changes. Hence PKC cannot detect these changes instantly but will notice them on full/delta syncs.

- Toggle the viewstate of an item to (un)watched outside of Kodi
- Changing details of an item, e.g. replacing a poster
However, some changes to individual items are instantly detected, e.g. if you match a yet unrecognized movie.
