Fun Fact: This kinda works perfectly on Android! #164

I'm aware Android support is out of this project's scope but for those who desperately want lobster in Termux you're actually a config line away.

How to enable it:

nano ~/.config/lobster/lobster_config.txt

(you can use lobster -e if you know how to escape vim or you've already set it to nano like me 😭)

Then once you're in the config set player to this monstrosity of a line.

player="am start -n is.xyz.mpv/is.xyz.mpv.MPVActivity -e filepath"

Thanks to lobster 🦞 allowing custom players this is possible using the MPV termux intent. 🙏

Anyways hope you have a good rest of your day, good bye.

just as a disclaimer: if anyone is willing to PR/maintain android mpv support, i am willing to merge those changes, i just won't be maintaining it myself
