[...] In addition to that, you can also deactivate the Flash plug-in, in which case YouTube switches to HTML5 once it notices that the Flash plug-in is missing (it only fails if your browser does not support any of the formats the video is available in). Recently I've gone over to using the FlashDisable extension for Firefox to only activate Flash *temporarily* when I really need it. Also, consider youtube-dl, which came recommended by a friend and has worked wonderfully for me for a variety of sites (youtube, vimeo, soundcloud, etc.).
