Another highly required thing for Magento – a Video extension. Despite it’s quite straightforward to create an attribute and use it, many people would like to see this functionality “out-of-box”. We decided to explore this possibility and start development of a video module.

We’d like you, Magento users to contribute your ideas and needs and help us create a useful and poweful module.
