Add an option to enable or disable Dash/MPD playback #24

I've been having some problems with dash where it would play its audio only instead of video, and because I don't know if other people are having this problem, I'm going to just add an option to disable it in case one does.

Not entirely sure if this is such a great idea. Not using MPEG-DASH playback results in a severe quality degradation. People might change this setting and then wonder about this.

Perhaps you're better off reporting DASH issues over at Kodi? I'm not sure whether Kodi allows hardcoding a minimum quality for DASH playback at the moment like many YouTube players do.

The low quality issues should be fixed. You were selecting the lowest quality stream instead of the last option which is the highest quality.
