To quote the plugins FaQ.
"No, Its completely free."
Is a total lie. 70% of the features are locked behind a paywall, even simple features such as player controls. This is a joke.

When playing video and close it by clicking anywhere on the website, the scrollbar will not be visible. Please help me fix this weird issue. There is no issue if I close the video using the "x" icon but clicking anywhere will hidden the scrollbar.

A very neat and efficient way of playing self-hosted videos via Wordpress.

Simple, but I couldn't get the size parameter to do anything to change the size of the playback. Also, most features are only in the Pro $$$ version.

All right! My native video plugin has been playing up - buttons not showing - so I looked for another. After trying several on the 'best video plugin' lists I found - many several, in fact - variously none of them worked, none of them played MP4 videos reliably, none of them allowed you to link to separately uploaded content (to bypass upload size restrictions), or none of them gave clear instructions on how to embed the video. I mean, you'd think that last one would be high on the list, but they're more interested in telling you how to incorporate the PHP into themes!
I wanted simple and ready/obvious to use. I didn't have time to play around with fixing problems arising from editing themes.
This delivered. Immediately.
I will almost certainly upgrade to Pro.
