RE: Youtube video direct and Get youtube download url
Dave;

Short note....

I think the difference in our respective reports might be simply our current filter sets. I'm using a strictly "home-brew" set, with a few golden nuggets derived from various folks on this forum (thanks, everyone!). That may explain why Quietube works for me (and undoubtedly most other users) and not for you.

If you disable Proxo entirely from your next YouTube browsing session, I think you'll find that the address bar will demonstrate that when watching a video, the address is ".../watch=v?{11chars}&AndAnyOtherParameters". It's long been known that the ".../v/{11chars}" form of the address is for embedding a video on another site, but when entered as the "top level" address, it forces the browser window to display the video in full window mode. (As opposed to full screen mode.)

Additionally, this also bypasses the age verification process on nearly all so-called NSFW videos (I'm sure I've not seen every last one of them, so I can't be 100% certain that it always works Wink ) and rumor has it that this address form is also supposed to bypass any region restrictions. Again, I can't verify that works every time, so YMMV.

If you aren't getting the same results, then I daresay that either your filter set is a bit more restrictive than mine, or perhaps you're using a different browser.....

Thanks for the reply, and hope the above helps.
