I have the same problems with Chrome under Windows 7 and
XP. Realplayer will not download the video from Youtube. Firefox
and Internet Explorer both have a Realplayer button that pops up
asking if I want to download. There is also an item in the
left-click drop-down menu. So what you should do is probably try
Firefox. You should also uninstall and reinstall
Realplayer so it can add the plugin to your browser.
