Publishers Complain that Google AdSense Video Units Aren't Targeted

We talked about how to set up Google AdSense video units via YouTube. Now we're onto the next step: people are starting to use the AdSense video units and are not getting relevant ads. For example, this user is selling golf equipment, but what is his ad? A man in a Darth Vader suit.

What are the issues here? Can advertisers not preview ads before they go live? What about recurring AdSense video units? Will you see the same thing when you refresh? These questions are still lingering.

There's no response from Google on the AdSense unit targeting concerns just yet, and the program is still brand new. I'd like to hear other feedback from other publishers though.
