Code:
youtube-dl youtubelinkhere
Should download the video.
As for streaming, in a root shell:
Code:
echo 'mplayer -cache 2048 "`youtube-dl -f 18 -g $1`"' > /usr/bin/ytstream && chmod +x /usr/bin/ytstream
then just use ytstream youtubelink

Where you started youtube-dl, if you started a new terminal window and typed youtube-dl, it would be in ~ (/home/user)

I'm happy with it - It works fine on my desktop. I'll be using this instead of grabbing stuff from /tmp. Thanks.

Only thing I -would- like is the ability to have an auto-rename function; Perhaps have a variable that lets you put in a few wildcards like the date, time, video title and video ID?

You can specify an output template. The example below would save the file using the title and file extension.

youtube-dl -f 18 -o %(title)s.%(ext)s http://youtubevideourl

More options shown here: http://rg3.github.com/youtube-dl/
