I'm not gonna flame the developer of this module, but customer service and support are not a priority. The other reviews here pretty much tell the story, as do the numerous unanswered posts on the dev's forum.
I would advise doing some research and shopping around a bit before you decide to purchase this module.

I am so happy that I purchased this great extension from Viper! At first I was hesitant, because I read some of the reviews, but I figured I would take a chance.
I can’t speak for other people, but my personal experience has far exceeded my expectations. Not only does the product work as promised, but I had a couple of questions, and support was prompt and very helpful. I’m looking forward to future releases!

This is a very good looking tool for displaying youtube videos on a website. I especialy liked the video popup function. Easy to install and manage it.
According to my needs, it lacks two important functions:
1. The ability to popup a youtube video wich will be displayed just as a link.
2. The possibility to customise the displayed video titles, which is something important if you want to give more specific information to your visitors, or use another language.

You should NOT buy this extension unless you are willing to swallow all the problems with this extension yourself! You will never get support even at a very minimal level. The extension seems very good but when you buy and try, you will discover that the extension is not working as expected, so you have to uninstall it because there is no way to contact the owner. The owner just hides or disappears after getting your money!
Like the review below I think it is a very good extension. If it works you are fine if not (and there are several issues) then good luck with finding the solution. There is no support at all from the developer. He has basically disappeared from the forums. And with Joomla 2.5 out I would not recommend buying it since there might be no upgrade in the near future.
I had tried several ways to get a youtube gallery before I purchased viper gallery pro i had even purchased a couple of others which either did not do what i wanted or the instructions were so confusing i gave up. It was therefore a delight to come across viper gallery pro which I installed and got working perfectly within minutes. The module is real easy to understand and i like the way all that you need do to display youtube videos is write a list of then in the module ...it cant get any easier. You do need to remember to enable the mootools module to get the pop up to work nicely . Realy good module
This mod is great! I have used Vipers free mods for QR Code Generator and Social Media links and figured 10 dollars for the only joomla extension they charge for couldn't be too big of a risk and boy was I right. very easy and simple to configure, I had used a free youtube slider but it didn't have the sleek and professional look I was looking for. I don't write many reviews on extensions but this one was worth it!
Wonderful extension.
Really worth much.
The support is responsive and interested in solving problems.
Thank You!

we had a small issue with the install and VIPER support was amazingly responsive! I'm used to paying for additional support on commercial products - VIPER not only provided the support FREELY, and in a timely manner, but they went above and beyond , helping us to show us the errors in our ways. Great Product! Great Support!
Have seen many YouTube and other modules, however this one is probably the best that I have seen.
This is not a Component, and will not allow you to have users add to the list of videos, however it is excellent in its layout and usage for displaying any youtube video in any type of module parameters on your joomla site.
Pros: Easy to use, good documentation and excellent support by the creator.
Cons: doesnt allow for component based user additions of their videos.
Best Features: Easy design interface through backend. Easy placement anywhere through your template through the mos loadposition command or as a module insertion.

First, I have never reviewed anything in my life but I have to say this is an amazing product and the support team is top notch. I had some minor issues with an update that came out and within a few hours they had rewritten the code so it would work. Now that's service! Anyway, I encourage anyone who wants to display Vimeo or Youtube videos on their site without having to refresh the page... get this app! Thanks again for the great support.
I had an issue with the thumbnail scroller not working so I emailed their support team and they fixed it within a few hours even though the problem was caused by another module I had on my site. I must say I was very impressed with their support team and I appreciate all their help.
I spent quite some time looking for a good extension to allow me to embed my videos and I found a few that were ok. Then I found this module!! This is by far the best one I have used!
