  1. I know this is quite an old post, but I have just discovered PlexKodiConnect because of a very specific need. I have one server, one Amlogic, Coreelect-based box, and one Stick-PC, Libreelec-based computer, plus my laptop computer that also has Kodi installed. A few days ago, Kodi Matrix (v19.0) has been released as a stable release, but both, Coreelec and Libreelec don't release a stable, Kodi-Matrix-Based release yet. Besides, it turns out that my Amlogic-S912-Based box won't be compatible with the latest version of Coreelec, based on Kodi Matrix. I have updated my laptop computer and my server (which serves a media server, a Plex server, and Kodi viewer for the TV set I have in my living room, all at the same time) to the latest Kodi Version, and my Stick Pc and Amlogic box are still running Kodi 18.9. MySQL database in Kodi, as said in previous posts, works flawlessly, but it turns out that Kodi 18 and Kodi 19 databases are different, and therefore are not synchronized to each other. When all my devices were based on Kodi 18.x, there was no problem at all, but with two devices with Kodi 19 and two devices with Kodi 18, they work like two completely separate databases, although they use the same engine, with the same user, in the same server. As a result, If I started viewing a movie in my TV set in my living room, which is based on Kodi 19, the resume point was not synchronized for me to cotinue watching the movie in my bedroom, which is where I have my Amlogic, Coreelec-Based TV box. Trying to find a solution to that specific problem, I found PlexKodiConnect, which works like a charm to synchronize all my devices, regardless what version of Kodi they are running. In addition, since I used Plex to have access to my content out of home, I can also synchronized my resume points with the content I am watching through a Plex app, whether installed in my laptop computer or in any of my mother's TV sets at her place. In summary, using PlexKodiConnect you can syncrhonize different Kodi devices running different versions of Kodi. I know, in the ideal world, I should have all my devices running the latest version of Kodi, but many times developers take longer to develop specific ports for specific hardware, and they also stop developing ports for older hardware.
