About this bit. Can you play youtube videos without using that download-helper-plugin? Or is your connection too slow to be able to watch directly without downloading first? As an alternative to using the download-helper-plugin, you could try the following: $ eix youtube-dl * net-misc/youtube-dl Available versions: ~2009.05.23[1] 2010.01.19[1] 2010.10.03 ~2010.10.24 ~2010.11.19 2010.12.09 ~2011.01.30 Homepage: http://rg3.github.com/youtube-dl/ Description: A small command-line program to download videos from YouTube. Hope this helps, Joost
