This includes ads for content that may be rated PG or above, and the images displayed for some of these ads are definitely not age-appropriate for young children.\r\nIf you don't mind the ads or don't have young children at home (or proper parenting is not important to you), the device is very good and I do recommend it.

I had turned it off, and switched back to OpenSubtitles for the time being, b/c I didn't have WebDav setup.  I'll turn it back on.  I was trying to load from OpenSubtitles, but I see what you're saying.  I was able to load from the PM cloud, and all the RARBG torrents come w/ their own subs, so that's usually not an issue, as I try to download from them first before anywhere else.\r\n\r\nI'm not sure what caused the lag, then.  I went back to watch the film from the My Files link, and it worked, but Kodi crashed on me.  At first, I thought that it might be the library scan, but then, it occurred to me that it could be the new Kodi build I loaded last night.  I'll try the WebDav library again tonight, see what happens, and if I have trouble, I'll install the regular Kodi 18.9 build, instead of the Fire TV-specific build.  On the other hand, I've been eyeing [this NVIDIA Shield Pro](https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B07YP9FBMM).  I might just pull the trigger on that, and hopefully, that'll resolve all my issues.","subreddit_name":"Addons4Kodi","author":"jeffe333"},{"body":"Low power consumption, Dolby Vision and Atmos together eh?
