Description

Steps to reproduce

I'm using this app on Android Tv. These Android TV have a channel row called "Play Next", that shows recently played shows from different apps installed. There is an option in TV settings which allows us to select which apps are allowed to show its shows on that Play next row.

I cannot deselect Cloudstream in that apps list because it's not mentioned. But as soon as I open cloudstream app, all the tiles from my "continue watching" section appears on my Android TV home screen's "play next" row.

Give an option to stop this behaviour.

Expected behavior

Cloudstream app should be available in the list of apps from which Android TV pulls the recent titles to show on home screen "play next" channel row.

Actual behavior

There is no option to deselect Cloudstream from showing its "Continue Watching" titles from appearing on android TV home screen's play next row

Research direction

No files, tests, or entry points are named. Start by locating Cloudstream's Android TV Play Next or Continue Watching integration and the related TV settings; done means Cloudstream can be controlled in Android TV's app list and its Continue Watching titles no longer appear when disabled.
