Hi. I have been trying to integrate Tidal with Kodi. I have been using a FUSE file system for Tidal and have managed to create album.nfo album.cue files and symbolic links etc. Basically, I can now play Tidal .mpd files on my Debian desktop. On my NVidia Shield, however, I can play Tidal Dolby Atmos tracks but am unable to play .mpd files within Kodi. I can get VLC to play them when set up as an external player. I am wondering if the Kodi PAPlayer/VideoPlayer does not support .mpd files in Android. Perhaps I need to use inputstream adaptive? If so, I am not sure if input stream adaptive can be used as an external player? The folder containing the .mpd files are mounted via SMB on both the NVidia Shield and Debian desktops.
Log fragment on NVidia Shield:

On my Debian system, VideoPlayer has no issues recognising and opening the .mpd files, so perhaps the VideoPlayer on Android does not have .mpd support?
Thank you.
