Plugin: EmbyCredits, detect end credits and add auto skip.

I’m running into an issue on the latest version where I’m no longer able to save the tesseract api endpoint when using a docker container name (for example, http://tesseract-ocr:8100). I now get an error message saying that only localhost and local network addresses are allowed.

@spk2010@DarWunI finished and added the "fix" to Emby deleting the time stamps. Hopefully this will fix all the problems with Emby doing that until the devs look into the problem.

I've been testing the new version since the day you posted it and I still have the same problem, the CreditsStart mark disappears when I click the "Next Episode" button. It's not a problem for me because I restore backups with Cron, but if you need any proof or logs just ask me.

New version in the test phase right now.

Btw. mind sharing the cron job?

Also just noticed that a metadata refresh makes it so Emby's own intro detection wont run on the series that had the metadata refreshed.

The devs might need to look at that one.
