### Description
[Description of the bug or feature]
The Android ESN number field is too short to type in your own one from the Netflix Android app.
My Netflix Android app with Widevine L3 shows the following ESN
(some numbers replaced with x)
FANDROID1-PRV-T-L3-ROCKUNKNOWN- 444x-05x51E20xF4C9xD5FF90x714BA2x38D08A3DE8x7CODE1AAx0B07x297x01C42xxx
In this case it's 101 characters.
It's not possible to manually type this amount of characters.
The automatic ESN number generated is also wrong and videos just show a black screen on RK3328 Nougat media players.
The Amazon Prime Video addon works correctly with Inputstream, so it must be something Android specific with the ESN number generated.

Research direction
Start by reproducing the issue on an Android RK3328 Nougat media player with Widevine L3, checking both the manual ESN input and the automatically generated ESN from the Netflix Android app. Done means the 101-character ESN can be entered and the generated ESN is correct enough to prevent the reported black-screen playback.
