TM++ doesn't work with Youtube as far as I know, because Youtube uses plain old HTTP to grab videos and TM++ is for RTMP streaming, which no browser plugin will currently handle. And you do have to let the file play in the flash applet in order for TM++ to grab it; you just don't need sound turned on. The last time I used it was to grab a friend's song from his Myspace account, or maybe it was ReverbNation. Can't think offhand of which sites stream video that way, but I've encountered a few.

Anyway, TM++ is something to be used as a fallback for those sites that aren't, and likely will never be, supported by the various Firefox extensions out there that work by scraping the site. Downloadhelper still works on Youtube as of when I tried it just now, but they may have come out with an update in the last few days without my noticing it.

I don't remember any updates recently - more than a couple weeks ago, probably. Used it yesterday with YoutTube, worked fine.
