Hi oxy,

May I recommend trying youtube-dl?

To install it, open a terminal and run:

sudo apt-get install youtube-dl

Then, you can download a video by opening a terminal and running
something like:

youtube-dl -t http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vPRmh5gBBl8

Unless you changed directory, you'll find the file in your home directory.

You can see more options by running:

man youtube-dl

Have fun!
