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,
