Thanks to you liquid for working out that we only needed to change the stdout, without that I wouldn't have known where to begin.

Ok I've uploaded the modified and working script to here:

It seems to be working on my Nokia fine. Remember you will also need to download the getpass.py
posted by liquid217 above. You need to put the getpass.py in your /usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages
you need to make sure the permissions on the youtube-dl script are correct.
as root type:
chmod 755 /usr/bin/youtube-dl
You also need to go to mytube>preferences>more>youtube-dl and change
youtube-dl-x
to
youtube-dl
leave the rest of the options the same.
Good Luck!
Trivial inconsistency: one of you put getpass.py in /usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/ and the other put it in /usr/lib/python2.5/ So I put it in both -- messy, I guess, but no problem so far.
Still no download percent indicator, but no big deal, either.
Great to have YouTube back on my N800!

open an x-terminal maybe you need to install the x-terminal package too.
in the x-terminal type:
cd /home/user/where you placed the downloaded files
then
sudo cp youtube-dl /usr/bin/
sudo cp getpass.py /usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages
sudo chmod 755 /usr/bin/youtube-dl

ive placed it on my external memory but i’m not sure what to type in cause
cd /home/user/Removable memory card/ doesn’t work.

Honestly, I think the easiest method would be to install an ssh server on the tablet, then use an sftp client on the PC/MAC/Linux machine. I personally use Filezilla. Get the IP address of your tablet, and plug that information into filezilla. (To find this open the Connection manager and select Internet connection > IP address from the menu.) You will also need the root password, which you should set up when installing ssh.
Then, it's just a matter of navigating to the 2 directories and copying the files over. You can also chmod (change permissions) right from filezilla by right clicking on the files once they are copied over.
I don't think it really matters if you copy getpass.py to /usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages or /usr/lib/python2.5. I think python probably looks at both folders internally for any dependencies it needs.

The external memory card files are in
/media/mmc1
so
cd /media/mmc1

so
cd /media/mmc1
and when i try typing in sudo cp youtube-dl /usr/bin/ it gives me
cp: cannot stat 'youtube-dl'? No such file or directory
so i'm still a little stuck. but in the meantime i'll be reading the article you sent me, thanks
