Love your tool. Thanks, like others say I use it at least a few times every week. I just prefer watching longer videos in VLC, easier seeking and no buffering, etc. Also much snappier than Youtube on my old laptop.

This won't solve the buffering problem, but for the record, you can use "open network location" in VLC to watch YouTube videos directly.

Regardless, youtube-dl and VLC complement each other quite well.
