Alright -- I've submitted the PR against the Isengard branch. @learningit, I hope you don't mind that I dropped your name.

I was able to update to the latest version and in my testing this worked on Kodi Krypton (17.3) and Jarvis (16.1). It does not appear to work on the older Kodi 15.2, but I guess this is to be expected as Kodi Isengard (15.x) is at least two major versions old.

Much of my testing has been on Raspberry Pi 2/3. I do not have speakers in my monitor so I have my Raspberry Pi configured to output audio through the 3.5mm audio/video jack. Video is via HDMI.
With OpenELEC 8.0.4 (Kodi 17.3) both video and audio work in shows (E.g., Murdoch Mysteries)
With OpenELEC 7.0.1 (Kodi 16.1) video works, but there is no audio in shows.
I had not noticed this before as the audio volume via the 3.5mm jack is very low -- needs volume amplification in Kodi which I set manually each time I actually watch a show, but had missed changing this setting while testing.
With OpenELEC 6.0.3 (Kodi 15.2) neither video nor audio works. In fact the add-on doesn't even get to the initial display menu or "Live Channels", "Live Programs", and "Shows".
Based on this it would appear that the add-on only works 100% for Kodi 17.3 (Krypton).

I wouldn't be totally shocked if the ffmpeg lib in those older Kodi releases can't handle it.I can live with Krypton (Kodi 17) on the RPi3, however, I would prefer to keep my RPi2 on Jarvis (Kodi 16) as it just runs better/faster on the older/slower hardware device.
