Awful noise and vibration while idling and accelerating

Horrible noise and vibration, mostly felt when idling at a stoplight (intermittent when in park). Also happens when accelerating and smooths out at higher rpms or when cruising.

After reading alot of threads here, i believe it is the Flexplate. I tried to check the bolts and all seem tight (flexplate turns as i try to tighten). so i started it up to take a look at it while running and its a bit wobbly.

I uploaded a video to youtube below. Do you think the Flexplate is warped or cracked? or is this indicative of another problem?
