Leave Kodi behind in 2010 and switch over to Jellyfin for better results.
FWIW I have jellyfin as well already, it’s also on the machine serving the nfs shares. I would expect streaming over lan to always be a lighter load then sending a transcoding request through the internet and back to the machine four feet away, but I could be wrong. I am always curious though what people are using as jellyfin clients for their TVs. How are you actually getting jellyfin into your living room? I had hoped to use a dedicated pi4, and I’ve already gone down the route of trying to boot to a light desktop with an auto loading chrome kiosk window to my jellyfin server, but those results were less than ideal too.
I use the Jellyfin for Kodi addon. It's quite easy to set up and it sounds like you pretty much have everything you need already. Not sure if it could fix your issue but it works great for me.
