This is a better way to download videos off youtube... NO PLUGINS REQUIRED... works with IE, FF and OP (dont know about others). Its very simple, you create bookmarks, then when you are viewing a video, you click the bookmark and a download link will appear in the description of the video! No third party websites required. And the best part? YOU CAN DOWNLOAD IN HD!... These links will download in the MP4 wrapper, so make sure you have K-Lite (uninstall all your current codecs before you install K-Lite).

So how do you do this? You need to create a bookmark for your browser... then put any of the following code as the URL for the bookmark. Then click when you need it!

High Quality....
Code: 
javascript:if%20(document.getElementById('download-youtube-video')==null%20&&%20!!(document.location.href.match(/http:\/\/[a-zA-Z\.]*youtube\.com\/watch/)))%20{var%20yt_mp4_path='http://www.youtube.com/get_video?fmt=18&video_id='+swfArgs['video_id']+'&t='+swfArgs['t'];%20var%20div_embed=document.getElementById('watch-embed-div');if(div_embed){var%20div_download=document.createElement('div');div_download.innerHTML='<br%20/>%20<span%20id=\'download-youtube-video\'><a%20href=\''+yt_mp4_path+'\'>Download%20as%20MP4</a>%20'+%20%20((navigator.userAgent.indexOf('Safari')!=-1)?'(control-click%20and%20select%20<i>Download%20linked%20file%20as</i>)':('(right-click%20and%20select%20<i>Save%20'+%20(navigator.appName=='Microsoft%20Internet%20Explorer'?'target':'link')%20+'%20as)</i>'))+'</span>';div_embed.appendChild(div_download);}}void(0);

High Definition (not all videos have HD)...
Code: 
javascript:if%20(document.getElementById('download-youtube-video')==null%20&&%20!!(document.location.href.match(/http:\/\/[a-zA-Z\.]*youtube\.com\/watch/)))%20{var%20yt_mp4_path='http://www.youtube.com/get_video?fmt=22&video_id='+swfArgs['video_id']+'&t='+swfArgs['t'];%20var%20div_embed=document.getElementById('watch-embed-div');if(div_embed){var%20div_download=document.createElement('div');div_download.innerHTML='<br%20/>%20<span%20id=\'download-youtube-video\'><a%20href=\''+yt_mp4_path+'\'>Download%20as%20MP4</a>%20'+%20%20((navigator.userAgent.indexOf('Safari')!=-1)?'(control-click%20and%20select%20<i>Download%20linked%20file%20as</i>)':('(right-click%20and%20select%20<i>Save%20'+%20(navigator.appName=='Microsoft%20Internet%20Explorer'?'target':'link')%20+'%20as)</i>'))+'</span>';div_embed.appendChild(div_download);}}void(0);

No reason to have a low quality download link. If the high quality doesnt exist, it automatically reverts to the low quality. Sadly, it doesn't do this for the high definition link... cause youtube sucks.
 
Jaxel what are the advantages of K-Lite over, say, CCCP? It was always my understanding that CCCP was the good guy and K-Lite and all other codec packs really screw things up.

Nope. CCCP is the "you're going to use this to watch anime, and nothing else! Fuck you! Our way or the highway!". But K-Lite is the most complete and versatile of all the codec packs. It also gets way more updates and thusly is always up to date.
