wow a great idea (using ffmpeg to add full 480 and 1080 support).
I love your addon works great on youtube, the only reason for 4/5 is that it does not work with other video hosting sites :(
the only reason I keep flashgot is it's media detector (I don't use download managers).
If you could make this addon detect all embedded video's it would be 5/5. Flashgot is gpl can't you borrow flashgot's media detector?

ps. you wrote the reason you can't detect embedded video's is performance degradation, flashgot detects embedded youtube video's and I've never noticed a performance degradation.
As I don't use a download manager I would really like to replace flashgot with complete-youtube-saver but atm that's not possible

This review is for a previous version of the add-on (5.6.26).

We have already begun work on downloading embedded YT videos on non-YouTube sites. Downloading videos from any site is something we would definitely like to do but requires a lot of work. Using Flashgot is an option we will have to look into. Stayed tuned.

Thanks for your review!
