It requires the Python interpreter, version 2.4 or later, and it’s not platform specific. It should work in your Unix box, in Windows or in Mac OS X.

Usage:

youtube-dl -o your_local_name.flv http://youtube.com/watch?v=nNkqKdLm1rU

If you want to log in on youtube and download, you can use the -u and -p switches.

When the download is finished you can open the video with mplayer:

mplayer your_local_name.flv

or choose a media player that play .flv files.
