that's strange ... cos it only downloads/plays videos when there's a high quality version
below is the line I modified....(appending &fmt=6)
const_video_url_real_str = 'http://www.youtube.com/get_video?video_id=%s&t=%s&fmt=6'

const_video_url_real_str = 'http://www.youtube.com/get_video?video_id=%s&t=%s'
and I don't get the HQ version to play... only standard.

I don't get the HQ version with the below line...
const_video_url_str = 'http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=%s&fmt=6'
I only get it with this mod ....
const_video_url_real_str = 'http://www.youtube.com/get_video?video_id=%s&t=%s&fmt=6'
and in that case, no video at all if HQ version does not exist.

Do you have a specific video ( name / video id ) in mind?

Somehow my good crack must have been switched yesterday. I've got a new youtube-dl-x that tries for HQ and falls back to standard. The stock youtube-dl.py does not handle this either, but once I made the video download into a function it was easy to sense the exception and retry without the high quality. I'll post a link to download just the youtube-dl-x momentary.

In the preferences dialog you will need to add the option "-x" for HQ preference to the youtube-dl tab.
