AFAIR, youtube-dl was not admitted to stable because it is subject to
changes, due to changes in YouTube itself. This was something the maker
of youtube-dl did not quite agree with.
But you can install it from jessie or download it from here and follow
the instructions: http://rg3.github.io/youtube-dl/download.html
AFAICS, the latter is just a script that you put into /usr/local/bin.


Youtube-dl works when downloadhelper doesn't. It's a piece of cake to 
install into /usr/local/bin and it updates itself when you run 
youtube-dl -U


Youtube does various things to thwart such download scripts and the 
devel at youtube-dl has fixes within a day or so. Great effort for such 
a little piece of code. Ric

On wheezy, clive works fine for me.  popcon shows cclive is gaining on
clive though, the trend shows clearly.

https://qa.debian.org/popcon.php?package=clive

Actually, you might not need to spoof the user-agent.

But I've come to expect intentional breakage along those lines.

Anyways, when it comes up, there are lists like this one:

Er, since you ask, I do something like this...  (apologies if my mail
client does something unhelpful with the long lines.)

 $ ejynt='Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10_8_2) 
AppleWebKit/536.26.17(KHTML, like Gecko) Version/6.0.2 Safari/536.26.17'

 $ trac=SOME_APPROPRIATE_TITLE

 $ iwrl=YOUTUBE_PAGE_URL

 $ quvi --agent "$ejynt" "$iwrl" >~/Music/Locations/${trac}.loc  && swffyx=$(grep 
'"file_suffix":' ~/Music/Locations/${trac}.loc |sed 's/.*: "\(.*\)".*/\1/')

 $ wget --user-agent="$ejynt" -O ~/Music/Videos/${trac}.${swffyx} "$(grep '"url":' 
~/Music/Locations/${trac}.loc |grep -o 'https\?:[^"]*')"

And, since I usually only want the audio, I tack on the following
conjunct to the last line:

 && vlc -I dummy --sout ~/Music/${trac}.ogg ~/Music/Videos/${trac}.${swffyx} 
vlc://quit

Doesn't always work.  But it works frequently enough for me.

Also, sometimes quvi doesn't supply a filename extension.  But whatever.

I mainly use cclive, since it works with more sites than youtube-dl did
last time I checked. (I have plenty of bandwidth for streaming, I just
refuse to watch non-live streaming video without a very good reason.)

The youtube-dl package is available in testing, though.
