Uses 1.6 Updater?
- Yes
everything in the module can be changed from the back end.
Features:
------------
* you can set the number of videos per module (from 1 to 50).
* the module doesn't show the videos that can't be viewed or embedded in your site.
* you can change the size (width and height) of the main video, and the thumbnails to fit your need.
* you can change all the colors in the module.
* you can change the direction of the module (right to left or left to right)
* you can include more than one instance of the module in the same page.
* you can align the text in the module to center, left, or right.
* you can add text above and/or below the module.
the Module is really simple, all you need is the Channel username, or the Playist ID, and the number of videos you want to display, change the default sizes of the video/thumbnails, and you're good to go.
I was looking for a way to display my video's after upgrading to Joomla 2.5 as support was not there for my old module, as with many other modules that I used in Joomla 1.5 sites. Omar is on top of support and is easy to work with if you have any questions. The module works perfect, as advertised, and you will be 100% happy you bought it. What are you waiting for? 5 stars!
Most all other Youtube extensions I found were for a single video. I needed something that would show the most recent video of a specific channel. This fit the bill perfectly. The demo page is a little misleading. At first I thought that I was required to have the little thumbnails along the side (I only wanted a single video display). Turns out, I can edit those out in the settings too!
Without doubt the best module for displaying a YouTube channel through your Joomla site!
After trying a large amount of options to get the best layout that displayed the options my client needed, I caved in and purchased this module - and I'm SO glad I did.
Configuring and setting up was a breeze and within moments I had achieved what I was trying to do: getting my clients uploaded videos automatically uploaded onto their website.
I can't recommend this enough, especially considering its low price!!

I purchased this extension, which is unusual for me. I was frustrated trying to get any free module I could working. I got it up and running with little to no trouble. At one point it was playing a playlist and Omar helped me out. In no time at all he responded to my email and fixed my playlist id. I had a PL in the beginning that shouldn't be there. Great app with great support, recommended
The name says it all. Simple and works first time with no fuss and does everything promised. The unexpected surprise came from my feedback to the developer about a possible improvement that would better suit my needs. Within a short time a complete solution was delivered. Well done indeed. Thank you so much. Highly Recommended.
The module works nicely. We had an issue with it pulling in the correct videos and reached out to Omar. But while we were waiting for a response from him, we found a fix that works great for us.
Omar responded within the hour and was very pleasant. We love this module and plan to use it on our business website permanently. It looks professional and was relatively easy to install.
We had two problems: 1) After testing a few playlists, we discovered the two of the playlists would pull in the wrong vidoes (while the others worked just fine.) 2) We could NEVER get the module to recognize our actual channel. The fix. We created a playlist that mirrored the channel and linked the module to that playlist instead. Works like a charm.
4 Stars. Definitely worth the $10.

Well done guys for this module!
I don't rate with "excellent", because I belive that it may have a better layout.
I used this extentions in a politician's website
It's very easy to install and use.
For the next versions of 1.5.xxx:
a) I would like to show more videos in my website
b) I would like it to be a video gallery, like phoca gallery for photos, with the main video in in the top and under it with i.e. 4 columns with the video thunbails. I think this is a better layout.
