Yes, indeed. We've got a white-label version coming shortly.
If you're interested in this, would you mind if dropped you an email to ask some questions about what would work for you?
Very interested in the white label version, so echo AussieInterconn ect's post.
Short term , interested in customising which videos clients see as most not interested in the technical side of their sites.
Great stuff ;-)
An update from us:
1) We've built the "choose which videos you want" feature for Joomla.
2) We're got the "add your own logo and component name" feature 75% built.
Hopefully we'll release both in a new version in the next couple of weeks.

Can the videos be viewed by the client if they have only limited admin privileges?
OSToolbar works with Joomla's access control levels so you can decide who sees the videos.
We're uploading it to the site today.
