Just my 2c.
I get 'codec not supported' on the 480p formats using media player. They will play in mplayer, but the performance is poor, and mplayer complains about the cpu being too slow.

I believe the Android YouTube client (and gPodder) uses the same stream that cuteTube uses, and with good reason it seems.
