Doesn't Work - strange setup
The setup is weird - you have to pull a photo from your own media library to use as the cover photo for the video. uhmmmm, ok. I did that, but then the video gets an error message and will not play. Overall, not a very efficient or effective plugin.

buggy and strange workflow
the basic functionality is exactly what I need: creating a video-gallery with different videos from youtube or vimeo or whatelse... but there is a stange workflow: for every video you want to use, you need to define a video-banner - also if you want to use the default-preview-image from youtube... So I used for all videos the header-image of my blog... but when I tried to add different videos with different titles and descriptions, the different videos were no problem but the title/desc was always for all videos that one from the last video... so this makes the plugin completely useless for me :-/
