Oppo UDP-205 MQA Confusion

I read that the 205 now supports MQA as long as it shows up as a "media file",
e.g. via a USB thumb drive or CD. This confuses me. How can an MQA file show up
as a "file"?  It's streamed. My intent is to use Tidal, via my iMAC to stream MQA
to the 205. (I don't own one yet). Will the 205 unfold Tidal Master files or not?

Sorry for my ignorance,
Jeff

Upgrade completed. USB cable was not seated properly.

Forgot to add that it’s a CD.

I just received and am now playing Steely Dan Pretzel Logic with MQA on my Oppo UDP-205. How can you tell if the Oppo is decoding MQA? I don’t see the MQA logo on the Oppo display. 

Thanks

Trying to upgrade USB from USB-0112 and keep getting an error message “no device found. Please plug in the device you want to upgrade” 

I selected fw_upd205_dac_build0115.bin

downloaded for Mac.
