Description

Describe your suggested feature

If the video has been paused for too long, we get an error that the source is not available. At this point it would be useful to have a refresh or reload link from the source menu.

Other details

This issue is discussed here: https://www.reddit.com/r/Cloudstream3/comments/10x8lc1/is_there_a_way_to_reload_a_videosource_without/

Research direction

Start by locating the Android internal player's Sources menu and review the linked Reddit discussion for the expected reload behavior. Done means the menu offers a reload action that can recover a source after the video has been paused long enough for it to become unavailable.
