If you want to download YouTube Video/Movie in Google Chrome, you can try following Javascript plugins, it will instantly get the video URL from the webpage even if it's not yet finished loading. No Website or software is needed.

You can create a bookmark bar, named "<b>Download YouTube Video</b>" or something you will remember, then for the URL field paste:

Code: Select all

javascript:window.location.href = 'http://youtube.com/get_video?video_id=' + swfArgs['video_id']+ "&l=" + swfArgs['l'] + "&sk=" + swfArgs['sk'] + '&fmt_map' + swfArgs['fmt_map'] + '&t=' + swfArgs['t'];

Go to the YouTube video you want to download, when it starts playing click your "Download YouTube Video" bookmark and you will see the .flv file start to download in Google Chrome's download status bar.
