Kodi / OSMC (lemm.ee)

I have Kodi installed now, I will probably test OSMC later today, are there any other programs similar to them that I could test?

What I am mostly interested in:

fullscreen mode (dark mode / theme preferably, even if I would have to make it manually somehow)
option to navigate my drive or external drive
xbox controller support
subtitles support

What I want to accomplish is quite simple, every now and then I want to play a movie from my pc on my tv (connected via hdmi) and I don’t want to use mouse or keyboard while watching it to pause or turn the volume up a notch.

Kodi is kinda okay for all that but it feels a little wonky and pretty often makes a mess with my files, creating duplicates or ghost files on lists..

Thanks for any help!
