Is there an application that will buffer a You Tube file as to

Yes, use some application to download the video, transcode it to dvd
and play it that way. You can see the minor drawbacks of this
process: it takes far more processing power than just playing the
video.
Seriously, it's time to consign the PPC to the scrap heap for this
kind of application.
YouTube recently discontinued the &fmt tags. Things were rough for a
few weeks after but now this past few weeks... I donno... Playing
YouTube stuff on my QuickSilver has been pretty good! Not as smooth
as on a multi GHz x86 Mac, but still quite watchable.
