previously were played, however even the trans coding function fails to yield 
any results.

Youtube plugin use:
 - youtube's video page analysis to get urls of http streams
 - youtube's apis to get rtsp streams on analysis failure

Google changed youtube video page html... so analysis fail and the scraper have 
to be updated.

If Google changed apis too, well... no stream at all.

I will not fix this, no time for this now. I made a patch for the youtube 
plugin to use WiiMC's youtube video scraper. (it's available in svn trunk or in 
the forum, i don't remeber).
