The main reason is that I have found when navigating with a remote or an app, that Kodi handles Blu-ray menus and chapter navigation better for my BDMV folder rips, and even for my MKV rips. I'd love to settle on just one or the other. Can someone tell me how to get Blu-ray menus or chapter navigation in JRiver when using JRemote? Or, can someone tell me how to get SACD ISO support in Kodi?
Thanks!

Which Kodi app are you using?

What is DMC? I also have an OPPO. How can it fit into this discussion?

Can aggree to that. The usability of JRiver for series or movies is just bad.
If you have enough files it just crashes even on High End system.
Kodi does have the better GUI and usability for Video Files.
Even for Audio, JRiver Crashes each time i hop between folders. JRiver could be more responsive, then it would not come to crashes while switching selection of folders / albums.
If i were you, i would use JRiver only for music, without kodi. I think if you launch jriver from kodi, kodi might crash because jriver crashes byself often enough. You just compare a good responsive software versus a bloated unresponsive but good Music Player which has very much options.

This is just not true for most users. MC is widely used by people who have very large libraries (>100,000 files).
If you have a problem, start a thread, or bump one if you've provided details.
Here's a thread of problems caused by drivers and other software:

Take a special look at the Antivirus thread linked near the top.
I'll split this to a new thread.
