This is not fixed in Intrepid, at least not in my experience. When I double-click on a YouTube video in Totem, it does launch the "Search for suitable codec?" dialog and tries to install the codecs. The first option, ffmpeg plugin, is the one I chose. After downloading and installing, which took barely a minute, Totem tried playing the YouTube video, but after around 10 seconds of the clock pointer, it said, "The playback of this video requires a flash demuxer plugin, which is not installed."
I tried closing and opening Totem, then I tried playing the same video. It again opened the "Search for suitable codec?" dialog. This time only the other option, "GStreamer plugins for mms, wavpack, quicktime, musepack; GStreamer plugins from the bad set" was available. I selected it and, after downloading and installing, it finally worked. The "ffmpeg plugin" should be fixed or removed from the list.
