I've recently switched browser, from FF to Chrome, and i miss the on screen option of downloading a YouTube video while using Internet Download Manager. I never used the Advanced Integration in IDM, which wasn't needed in FF to download a video but in Chrome it's different story, without advanced integration you won't be able to download a video.
So i need to know the best and stable software out there which will do the purpose in Chrome.
If my requirement is not clear then i am attaching a screenshot to say what i am actually trying to say here.

I too had this problem, it just didn't work with chrome. Then I downloaded a newer version (ver 6) that had chrome support, I can now download youtube videos using IDM in chrome.
the link appears on the lower left of the browser.

Yes you haven't specified your problem exactly the way you want.

But what's the problem with " Advanced Browser Integration " in CHROME ?? It's necessary for every other browser including chrome to display the download button automatically., and i never missed it.

Another options are: Freemake Video Downloader
It doesn't show any button on screen but displays icon in toolbar and to download just copy/paste the link in software and it'll prompt you to download the video in original format or other you choose.

Dunno if IDM supports Opera or not. But Opera's built-in Download manager is fine. Will continue downloads from where they were if you close the browser or restart PC. Unlike Firefox and Chrome.

I donot prefer using plugins for Youtube video downloading. My preferred method is to use keepvid.com/ and copy paste the URL to my download manager to download :wink:

DownloadHelper is best for Firefox..can detect and download any videos. IDM is also good and it supports all browsers....Hve been using both of them...

Well i can download if i enable ABI*. But i don't like to keep it on, makes problem when you are downloading other stuffs.

Well the problem with ABI* is you will have problem in downloading other stuffs, you know what i mean by other stuffs/formats. So turning on ABI in IDM will create problems. Built in download manager of browser works fine.

Will try that software now.
My Chrome and IDM is updated.

@ico- Yep, Opera has it, but it ain't my choice of browser :)

Update:
Well that app ico mentioned works in Opera works in Chrome too. Just an extension called 'Youtube downloader'.
Nice.

+1 to keepvid.com
Cross platform (;)), portable (;)) and hassle free way to download videos from youtube in any quality. It's audio counterpart, snipmp3.com can be used to download the the audio from any YT vid.

Anyway, since I am using Opera these days, I will try the extension which ico mentioned. That looks good too.

Rethink.
It requires Java Plugin and without it keepvid ,savevid and likes are usless+It aint portable since it doesnt work on smart-phones properly.

OK, the first one is great and works, but how could i work the second one, i mean the YouTube Video Grab one? It just shows an icon at the top right corner of the browser but nothing else!
