hi julian,
some times ago hier on the list someone introduced 'youtube-dl' which is
kind of script, so you can download the .flv movie from the you-tube and
than watch with mplayer in much better quality. i was using this always
if i wanted to watch y-t video.
but now, since last week:

nowhiskey@email-addr-hidden:~$ youtube-dl
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eNm85Vt5qTY&feature=bz100
[1] 5873
nowhiskey@email-addr-hidden:~$ Retrieving video webpage... done.
Extracting video URL parameters... done.
failed.
Error: unable to download video data.
Try again several times. It may be a temporal problem.
Other typical problems:

        Video no longer exists.
        Video requires age confirmation but you did not provide an account.
        You provided the account data, but it is not valid.
        The connection was cut suddenly for some reason.
        YouTube changed their system, and the program no longer works.

Try to confirm you are able to view the video using a web browser.
Use the same video URL and account information, if needed, with this
program.
When using a proxy, make sure http_proxy has http://host:port format.
Try again several times and contact me if the problem persists.
..............

so i think that youtube changed something, so it is not working in the
moment either this way.

i ll have a look into google, if i can find a newer version of this one!

cheers,
doc
