hi, i'm notspiff. you have to install and activate the audiodecoder.sidplay audio decoder add-on. sid files will then automagically show up in the browser, you don't have to add extensions manually or do anything else. for some reason i cannot fathom team kodi has chosen to deactivate all add-ons by default. you have to go into the add-on browser, browse your way to the audio decoder, open info then hit 'enable'. KISS my backend.

well, i'm having the exact problem! Sid files wont play
i'm using KODI 17.6 (build nov 19 2017).

i go into SYSTEM -> ADD-ons -> My add-ons -> Audio decoders -> Sidplay audio Decoder.
Then enable it. (it's version 1.1.0)

Then i go into a folder where i have a bunch of sid files. I can see the files, so that's good.
When i select a file, it wont play ("one or more items failed to play. Check the log for more information about this message")

When i go into context menu, and choose "Play using...", i can only select "PAPlayer (default)" or "Videoplayer". So, no sidplay or something to select.

I have kodi running on a nvidia shield TV.

What am i doing wrong?
Why are these sid files not playing?

Any help appreciated
