I like the module, but the support has been lacking. I emailed their support address a week ago, simply asking how to change the size of the font for the video titles, and have received no reply. Does anyone have any ideas on how to accomplish that?
If you planning to buy this module and if you need support to customize it, FORGET IT!!! The support seems to be dead, because I send several - I told several - emails and the support of this module - sales@webpsilon.com - simply ignore you. If I know that the support of this guys are so terrible, I had contracted another person to develop a similar module. Buy it at your own risk. Terrible support!!!
The trial version is a waste of time to download and install since it uses the same file directories as the paid version so this makes you uninstall it and install the paid version.
It has the look and feel we need as a player but it seems that the hourglass just keeps on spinning with FLV files over just 2 megabytes. It doesn't truly stream the videos like the other players on here do, it just lags and lags. Too many visitors on my site have complained about the videos taking WAY too long to play and they are on high speed connections! I sent a couple of emails (NO RESPONSE) on there developer page which is in Spanish only and mostly for quotes on development fees and the main download page for this extension doesn't have a forum, support or FAQ's on the problems you might run into or the issues with the player playing the videos so slow.
It would have been great to not receive so many complaints about the videos loading so slowly and taking a long time to play especially when they have high speed access!

This module uses the options file playback flv flash. The loading speed of video depends on the web server. The module is ready to upload video files of large size, but the loading speed depends only on the server. We have an e-mail support, sales@webpsilon.com. We also have a free test version of the module so you can test the speed of loading the videos.
I tried several of the video player extensions available and I found "Flash Video Gallery" fit my needs the best. It's very easy to install, configure and use. I really like the playlist and the ability to use your own still image as a thumbnail. It can be easily copied so you can have mulitple players each with their own unique playlists.
My feature suggestions would be:
1. If only one item is in the playlist, have the option to collapse the playlist so only the video player is displayed.
2. Add option to play video full screen.

This would be a good little bit of software if it worked (for joomla 1.5 - haven't tried version 1.0). Don't download the trial version, its a waste of time and will ultimately need you to reinstall the proper version.
I Paid for the software and was given access to the main product but when installed, the skin of the player which contains the controls doesn't work (like volume, stop, play skip etc). I have sent emails but still no response since the original one which give me access to the main version. If you can code well you maybe able to change this.
Shame really - it would have been handy!!!

The problem of the skin is already fixed, please send an email to sales@webpsilon.com and send you the extension. We have a trial version so that our customers try before you buy the module, in case of purchase and if the module does not work always refund the purchase.
Is easy install and use. Great module
