- Fixed the Imgur embed path.

Browse Source 
Imgur now uses a local wrapper page, 
[provider_embed.php](/Users/tyemeclifford/Documents/GH/mediaplayer/provider_embed.php), 
that renders Imgur’s official blockquote + 
https://s.imgur.com/min/embed.js snippet instead of trying to iframe 
Imgur directly. That should avoid the “refuses to connect” issue for 
albums, galleries, images, GIFs, GIFV, and videos.
Also updated:
[includes/db.php](/Users/tyemeclifford/Documents/GH/mediaplayer/includes/db.php): 
Imgur embed URLs now point to the wrapper, and Imgur view-count scraping 
has dedicated fallback patterns.
[admin/index.php](/Users/tyemeclifford/Documents/GH/mediaplayer/admin/index.php): 
Upkeeping → Correct Views now explicitly counts Imgur-backed items in 
the candidate summary.
[README.md](/Users/tyemeclifford/Documents/GH/mediaplayer/README.md): 
documented the Imgur wrapper behavior.

External URLs must use `http://` or `https://`. Uploaded files and remote URLs can be mixed on the same video. Recognized provider URLs such as YouTube, Vimeo, Dailymotion, Imgur, Twitch, Facebook, TikTok, Instagram, X/Twitter, SoundCloud, Spotify, Google Drive, Wistia, Streamable, and Loom render through their embed players.
Imgur links use the official Imgur embed script inside a local wrapper, so album, gallery, image, GIF, GIFV, and video URLs can render without direct iframe blocking.
When adding an external URL, the admin form can fetch title, description, duration, thumbnail metadata, and readable provider view counts through oEmbed, page metadata, and JSON-LD. The save action repeats the metadata lookup as a fallback, so blank titles can be filled from supported external pages even if the browser autofill was not used.
If no thumbnail image is uploaded, the add/edit forms can auto-grab one from the first supported source. YouTube and Dailymotion use direct thumbnail URLs; Vimeo, Wistia, TikTok, SoundCloud, and Spotify use oEmbed when available. Local uploaded videos can generate a first-frame thumbnail when `ffmpeg` is installed on the server.
