Description

Describe your suggested feature

Add this because alot of times exoplayer can't handle the high quality file you're trying to play and the screen just goes completely black and audio stops working or the audio still plays but doesn't work. Exoplayer not being able to handle high quality files is crazy lmfao

You can still keep the normal cloudstream video player as normal but you can just change codec's or permanently change it within settings so it can work/play high quality video files. Devs should know what I'm talking about. This will easily fix the problem because that one exoplayer quality issue has been a headache as of late

Exoplayer can't handle the file.

Research direction

The report identifies ExoPlayer playback of high-quality files as the problem, but names no source files, tests, or entry points. Start by reproducing the black-screen and audio failure on the Android app with a high-quality file, then determine a specific codec or player-setting change and verify that normal playback remains unchanged.
