[Feature request] Airplay #3195

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

On macos using safari, you can right click a video in invidious and show the builtin safari video controls. From there you can send the video to an apple TV to be played there. This however does for some reason not seem to work. It might have to to with what url or streaming endpoint is actually sent to the apple tv.

Describe the solution you'd like

Either the user flow descried above to actually work, with the possibility of an additional button opening up the airplay menu in the invidious player controls.

Describe alternatives you've considered

Leaving it as is. It is annoying however, as we use invidious for its proxying capabilities.

Additional context

I don't have a mac, i'm asking for a friend.
