- Live homepage:

Browse Source 
Added default Live settings in 
[includes/db.php](/Users/tyemeclifford/Documents/GH/mediaplayer/includes/db.php) 
using https://stream.place/embed/tyclifford.com.
Added Admin → Settings → Live Section controls in 
[admin/settings.php](/Users/tyemeclifford/Documents/GH/mediaplayer/admin/settings.php): 
enable/disable, live title, and embed URL/iframe input.
Added a homepage Videos / Live toggle in 
[index.php](/Users/tyemeclifford/Documents/GH/mediaplayer/index.php). 
Videos remains the default view, so the homepage behaves normally until 
Live is selected.
Imgur:
Added Imgur URL normalization, embed support, oEmbed/thumbnail hooks, 
and external view count scraping support in 
[includes/db.php](/Users/tyemeclifford/Documents/GH/mediaplayer/includes/db.php).
Supports imgur.com, albums/galleries, and direct i.imgur.com 
photos/GIFs/videos by routing them through Imgur embeds.
Imgur external views now flow into external_view_count, so per-item and 
overall site totals include readable Imgur provider counts.
Updated the add-video hint and README docs.

External URLs must use `http://` or `https://`. Uploaded files and remote URLs can be mixed on the same video.

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.
### Live Homepage Option
The homepage can show a **Videos / Live** switch above the main player. Configure it in **Admin → Settings → Live Section** with either a direct embeddable URL or an iframe snippet. The default live embed is `https://stream.place/embed/tyclifford.com`. Disable the setting to return the homepage to the normal video-only layout.
### Importing YouTube Channels
Use **Admin → YouTube Importer** to paste a YouTube channel URL, `@handle`, or `UC...` channel ID. The importer scrapes the channel's `/videos` page, extracts video data from `ytInitialData`, previews the results, and imports selected videos as remote YouTube embed sources. Duplicate YouTube watch URLs are skipped.

The admin dashboard also includes **Upkeeping → Correct external view counts**. It checks existing remote-source videos in batches, scrapes readable provider counts when available, and adds those provider totals to the media-site totals without double-counting local plays. YouTube has dedicated parsing, and generic metadata patterns cover readable Vimeo, Dailymotion, and similar provider pages when they expose counts. Unsupported providers and local-only uploads can still be corrected manually on the edit screen.
