I'm having the exact same experience with the 1.9.2-beta release version.
My youtube section has:
plugin.activate('video.youtube')
YOUTUBE_DIR = "/home/lroom/.freevo/tmp/"
YOUTUBE_DL = "/usr/bin/youtube-dl"
room# which youtube-dl
/usr/bin/youtube-dl
room# youtube-dl -v
2010.10.03
When I select a video to play, the OSD has information about the cache getting
loaded, then it simply stops and returns to the youtube listing without any
play.
My .freevo/tmp directory is empty.
I went to youtube manually and picked some video.
I then try this:
lroom# youtube-dl 'http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xQqQ-Kcjowg'
[youtube] Setting language
[youtube] xQqQ-Kcjowg: Downloading video webpage
[youtube] xQqQ-Kcjowg: Downloading video info webpage
[youtube] xQqQ-Kcjowg: Extracting video information
ERROR: unable to download video (format may not be available)
Next, I try get_flash_videos as below, and I can download the video:
get_flash_videos 'http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xQqQ-Kcjowg'

Rental-Car_Olympics__-_Car_and_Driver.mp4: 100% (211858.21 / 211858.21 KiB)
Done. Saved 216942808 bytes to Rental-Car_Olympics__-_Car_and_Driver.mp4
mplayer plays the mp4 file just fine.
I then tried the same thing on an ubuntu machine which has a difference
youtube-dl version.
With ubuntu version, I was able to download properly.
jim> youtube-dl -v
2010.12.09
I then downloaded the latest version of youtube-dl from
http://rg3.github.com/youtube-dl/download.html
and installed in my freevo box.
lroom# /usr/local/bin/youtube-dl -v
2011.02.25c
Now it works :-)
So, it appears that something might be wrong with youtube-dl versions.
Thanks,
Jim
