Watching videos on Youtube - great fun! Occasionally, you download a few of these. it is annoying however to look for a download link or the desired resolution,

The new functions require no menu or context commands, instead these are automatically visible on the websites, For example, Firefox shows the download link in a playing video on the right side below the number of times it has been viewed. The generated link uses the web service Flashload to download the desired file directly in MP4 format.
