Thank you lalitk for telling me about this new Aurender feature that I was not aware of. 

After the addition of the new Master Search feature (from the above new software release), Tidal on my Aurender now shows 10,346 MQA coded albums. If you do NOT see this many albums, delete your existing Conductor App and re-download the App from App Store.   This means delete the current Conductor App and re-install it.

You press the Master Seach tab and the long list of MQA coded albums appear.

Above Aurender upgrade completed. I was not able to immediately connect to my Aurender.  I Removed the App from iPad and re-installed. Weird. It is possible I could not connect because the software was still updating.  I also noticed a message my iPad was disconnected from my Wi-Fi during the upgrade (makes sense).  Playing music now. Everything is working fine.
