For me, youtube-dl works most of the time. But this will almost certainly be a complex function of the downloader's location and the video in question, so... One thing I found out is that youtube-dl's cache seems to suffer poisoning from time to time (no wonder, with all that toxic javascript out there). A timely youtube-dl --rm-cache-dir got it unstuck for me once (meaning that a video which threw a 403 before downloaded nicely after). YMMV and things. Cheers -- t
