This tool simple provides downloading videos from youtube with support for STDIN (PIPE) for tools like umph or youParse.
UPDATE INFO: Youtube has recently changed their service so this tool may not work on some other links. Will update very soon. (edited: 29-12-2012)

I just did a clean install of Windows 8 and Python 3.3, downloaded your code, and tried it. Simple UI (including progress bar), clear code, and best of all (of course) - it works. Thanks!
Hey thanks Dan! I'll update it soon too. Need to change some few lines of codes regarding the support for stdin and its format. Thanks again!
Hey thanks for this but it has stopped working, i think youtube has changed the order in something in the url_encoded_fmt_stream_map so with your script on linux, windows and cygwin python 3's i get forbidden from youtube (an incorrect request).
However I don't know python and i really needed a script right now to download videos overnight (poor internet in daytime on vacation) so i stayed up all night getting one working in Perl but it's quite dirty.
After all that; guess what i just found: youtube-dl (http://rg3.github.com/youtube-dl/) is a full featured cross-platform youtube ('and other sites') command-line downloader (apparently written in python) and has some good options, can update itself etc and it works as of today 25th March 2013. SO, maybe save you some time, unless you need other functionality. You can feed it an id or user page or a playlist page with start and end points and it will grab them all and it can do all the format stuff (i like --max-quality).
