mpv[1] can utilize youtube-dl[2] in the background for playback, so that is on-the-fly downloaded video, with no ads, played as it was local video, hw acceleration and all. [1]: https://github.com/mpv-player/mpv [2]: https://rg3.github.io/youtube-dl/
Use case: start watching conference videos or lectures on my phone, then move to the laptop then continue on the tablet, then back to the computer. Similarly to the way iBooks transparently preserves and syncs reading position across devices.
Slightly offtopic. Is there a way to watch youtube videos across different devices while preserving video location?

Awesome app. A Grooveshark replacement for me. I don't know if it too much to ask but Last.fm integration beyond just scrobbling can be nice. I have used an app belonging to Windows store which used to fetch full discography of searched artist from somewhere and show best YouTube video song next to every track. One question: Are there benefits of signing in beside being able to save playlist? Great work.

Use the website or first-party clients, it does that if you are logged in. (not trying to be snarky, if you tend to use 3rd party clients you might not know)
I guess I need to investigate this further. I didn't realize official google apps support this functionality because it's never worked for me. Thanks for mentioning it.

Hmm.. I must be doing something wrong then. Logged in on my Chrome on Mac, watched a video, paused it. Closed tab, reloaded tab. The video plays from the beginning. Opened the same video on my iPhone, official youtube app. Plays from the beginning as well. I guess I need to investigate this further.

Interesting, I wonder when will youtube shut it down in a way or another...
They haven't shut down youtube-dl yet which allow downloads of only the audio track.
