clive for lenny was giving me some strange problems.

Try installing clive from backports. That works fine.

I normally use clive to download the youtube url as a .flv and then recode it with ffmpeg.

gnash at.

Looks like youtube-dl would do this.

Try this easy recipe:

     clive http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FwDYbNIHyN0
     [wait for arrival]
     mplayer youtube_FwDYbNIHyN0.flv

I use "cclive" for this purpose, and it works. However, "cclive" is
not avaialable in Lenny as far as I can tell.

"clive" is available for Lenny, and should behave in the same way.
However, I can not vouch for it because it's not the one I use.

Hope this helps,

Phil
