The same procedure in adding a Bookmark/Favorites Button in Google Chrome Web browser.
NOTE: I'm sorry to all the developers (Please don't be angry with me) of Youtube Downloader Add-ons or Extensions in Firefox and to all the Websites that offers the service. This is for the best because it was made available by Youtube for faster access and download..
Sometimes we need (As Youtube have done) to proceed and think of a new things to make world much better. We MUST not live in old ways... Thank you very much Google for Bringing it up to everybody. Innovation is Better than living in an Old Path.

I would like to thank Mr Anders:
" Most of the Big Things is a Simple Idea... Like HTML! Everybody can learn that." This inspired me more... Not the exact words but it came from the Great Anders Hejlsberg, a Danish Born lead architect of C#.
It inspired me to Unlock Two things.
-
thanks Lawrence.
-
that doesn't work for me.. -
The latest one... Please read and carefully copy and paste the code from Here
The function was added by Youtube maybe several weeks or months ago. I don't know the exact date.
CODE: I am just using the Function created by Youtube. Maybe they intentionally add that for easier access and download. Even if it's not yet 100% loaded as long as it reads the function. SURELY it will work. -
what's suppose to happen after you paste the code?
sorry for all the questions, but i'm a little lost..
thanks! -
Just create a Bookmark Toolbar Button for that and it will access the youtube page function called swfArgs[x] to get the parameters.
Youtube.com/get_video?video_id=swfArgs[x]... so on and so on.
To have a better idea of the format, please read my previous Hack:

-right click on the bookmark bar
-click on new bookmark
- type in one of the two codes on this page (there's one for downloading the video as flv format and theres one for mp4) into the location column, and type whatever name you want into the name column...
and then click OK
a bookmark button should show up on the bookmark bar
and then just go to a video on youtube and click on that bookmark button that you have just created...there you go
hope it helps.. -

GOOD AND GREAT NEWS: I have just found out that the Youtube swfArgs[xx] Hack also Works in Safari Browser, A Cross-Platform Browser Hack - THE ULTIMATE YOUTUBE DOWNLOADER!!!
Here: http://unlockforus.blogspot.com/2008/09/how-to-download-and-save-youtube-videos.html -
oppps... it works in Opera Browser too... wow!!!!!
Now it's a CROSS-BROWSER YOUTUBE DOWNLOADER! (except IE)
How about it Internet Explorer, mmm sad to say it doesn't work.
Anyway a few weeks ago, I created a program called Youtube File Hack
Now It's Complete!!! Youtube Downloader for IE, Firefox, Google Chrome, Safari and Opera! -
Cool that work! -
Why can't you just open a little website that does it for you on all the browsers, withouth having to do this multiple times on multiple browsers, and then again when you re-install them, or the OS?
-
The principle is like in GuggleTube... you can get the link while the page is loading -
-
That's the puzzle that keeps on bugging for several weeks now.
After I made GuggleTube, I wanted to make something like a toolbar button in Firefox and other browsers...
How can I make something like that inside the browser?
This hack is really exciting and great for me. This is what I wanted.
If i can only share it to the world... that's a wow!
But there's a Huge problem, it will take time before it can be seen.
I don't have enough capability to spread the news... -
Lawrence's YouTube Download Bookmarks for Firefox don't seem to be working as well as they used to. On certain ones I get a new page with "Invalid parameters."
Youtube Hack Script code Works in Firefox, Safari and Opera!!!
