Description
Describe your suggested feature
Someone made the first Android TV fork of Mpv android. It would be great if Cloudstream added support for this since the app is made to work natively on Android/Google Tvs.

Other details
MpvEx is good but it is not native and made for Android TV, while MPVNova is.

Research direction
Start by locating the existing MpvEx external-player integration and the Android TV playback entry point, then compare how mpvNova accepts playback requests. Support selecting mpvNova for external playback and verify that a video launches correctly on Android/Google TV without breaking the existing MpvEx option.
