    Hi,

    I prefer downloading it as a flv file & read it with vlc.

    Previously, I used Downloadhelper (a Firefox extension) to download the flv files.

    Now, I’m testing an open source software named Miro, previously called Democracy Player.

    It allows researches & of course also downloads from:
    - YouTube
    - DailyMotion
    - Google video
    - & a few more I don’t even heard about before.
