Description

I tried to install this plugin on my tvOS.
Apparently it isn't working :(
I did manage to install the plugin and even I can check it's settings, but when I try to start a channel, it shows me the error from the title.

Kodi Version: 19.4
tvOS Version: 15.6

I installed Kodi via this way: https://kodi.wiki/view/HOW-TO:Install_Kodi_on_Apple_TV_4_and_5_(HD_and_4K)
I downloaded the plugin from here: https://jenkins.kodi.tv/job/xbmc/job/inputstream.ffmpegdirect/job/Matrix/108/
I tried even 19.0.1, because I read some comments that it works, but it doesn't for me too.

What I'm doing wrong? How can I successfully install that plugin?

Research direction

The issue does not name any source files or tests; done would mean identifying the compatibility or installation cause and confirming a successful channel start or documenting the required supported versions.
