FYI. As you may know, since WordPress 2.9, they've included at least some of
Viper Video Quicktags in WordPress itself. No need for a plugin.

You can embed YouTube videos by simply putting the URL to the video on one
line:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NeGteg74mjw

And WordPress takes care of the rest. Nice.

Viper's lets you do more... but we've found the built-in functionality to
work well.
