The Playlist link for just PBS is not working, can you fix it?

The PBS playlist contains streams that use DRM. To ensure proper playback, the playlist is formatted using the #KODIPROP tag, which provides additional instructions to media players like Kodi.

Common #KODIPROP Usage:

  • DRM or MPD Streams:
    #KODIPROP:inputstream.adaptive.manifest_type=mpd
  • License Keys (for Widevine DRM):
    #KODIPROP:inputstream.adaptive.license_key=...

In short, #KODIPROP is a Kodi-specific tag that allows users to fine-tune how streams are handled by passing properties directly to Kodi’s input stream module (like inputstream.adaptive for adaptive streaming protocols such as MPEG-DASH and HLS).

Because these streams use DRM and MPEG-DASH (MPD), you'll need a player that supports these formats. I know that TiviMate can handle these streams, but I’m not sure which other players might be compatible.
