There had been a few little errors that showed up previously in debug mode, but in contacting the developer Kinshuk Kulshreshtha, he spent quite a few hours with me trouble shooting it and adjusting the code. He was very friendly, polite, and got the work done! What more can you ask. If you have custom development in Joomla/Drupal/Wordpress/OSC or php/mysql I would definitely feel safe in recommending him. (no i am not an employee, or in any way affiliated with him, just happy some people care about there work, and want credit to go where it belongs)
Happy Sharing!

This is an excellent well-written plug-in that's extrememely simple to install and use. There's no documentation - you won't need it. It adds a 'My videos' tab to the CB profile and a form that allows members to add video simply by pasting the youtube url into a field. You can limit the number of video uploads. Exactly what I was looking for.
Very simple to install and get up and running! Functions straight out of the box, well done to the developers :) Thank You
Excellent plugin, worked first time, no problems.
It caught me out on the second site, didn't realise legacy mode was needed. As soon as I enabled legacy it worked fine.
Hoefully a 1.5 Native version will be available in the future, and upgrading won't effect the current data.

the idea is great in it's semplicity; css customization must be done coding the core files,there's no css indeed only styling in php file.
anyway if you need as simple non-component cb plugin that's it, and does exactly what's made for.
would me much more complete if there could be implementation of at least a description of the video..top score would be the chance to edit videos in front end...

Maybe for someone its good but for me its not.
In admin there should be adjustable video size (manualy adjust it in php)
Cant find where i can change title font size. Original is way too large.
Can't edit video title after upload it. And i dont understand why i have to insert video title separately... i should upload the title with video. Fair product...there is lot better ones...

Thanx for creating this! Exactly what I was looking for on the profile pages of my site. :)
At first it didn't seem to work: it uploaded as it seems, and there was a title in the tab, but only space beneath it, the video didn't show.
I found out that the url-format was to blame. As I live in the Netherlands, al my Youtube links come out in a format with nl.youtube.com instead of www.youtube.com.
Now when I paste a url in the field for it, I change the nl. to www. and it al works peachy :)

This extension works wonderfully but I didn't know it when I first installed it. I had Google Web Accelerator turned on and it was preventing the videos from Youtube from working properly. The developer spent hours helping me debug the problem and he even logged onto my CB site to help me. The extension allows you to choose how many videos to allow users and how many per page. You don't need a commercial extension to handle videos from Youtube and Google. This extension does it beautifully.
It's an interesting concept and I found it easy to install. It does exactly what I wanted it to. There is only one issue I have with it. I can't seem to manage what videos are submitted by my members back-end or front-end. The only way of managing the videos was through my database.
Other than that, it's a very good idea. It just needs a bit of more work.

Easy to download, Easy to install, Easy To use and a great addition. Well done on this, its great.
Normally I'm much too lazy to write a review but this little thing was far too awesome for me not to. I run a community based site with roughly 80 active members. Several of which had been asking for a way to bring their videos to the site instead of leaving to watch them or share them with friends. I hadn't wanted to allow them to upload videos for fear of the bandwidth usage.
And then I came across this!
I love this add on. It's perfect for my site and easy for my members to use. I would like to request some things though- if there were a way to limit the amount of videos someone could submit, that would be awesome. Maybe add a link for admins to easily delete videos from the front end just in case those linked are appropriate?
Once again, this is a flipping awesome thing. No bugs that I can find and easy to install and use. Absolutely perfect for someone wanting no hassle.

This is a great start to what will surely be among the highest rated CB plugings... after a little more work. It would be nice if it generated thumbs, instead of just placing the full size video in the tab. Maybe the videos could open in a pop-up or lightbox when the thumbnail is clicked. It would also be nice if more information was displayed, such as descriptions and how many videos are listed. Pagination wouldn't be a bad addition as well. Keep up the good work! :)
