Squid Cache: Version 2.6.STABLE18
on ubuntu 8.10 using latest videocache script.

http://img191.imageshack.us/img191/6134/videocache.png

you can see on the screenshot that the request answer gives the right url. if you copy the http://192.168.0.1/videocache/youtube..... link and past in the the browser and hit enter the video wants to be downloaded.

but the youtube player displays "an error occurred, please try again later".

btw: it works with xtube.....
in the videocache.log it says as it should be:
2009-12-24 20:53:33,271 19308 192.168.0.82 8cd3415ddd023dd9 CACHE_HIT YOUTUBE Video was served from cache.
2009-12-24 20:53:33,271 19308 192.168.0.82 8cd3415ddd023dd9 NEW_URL YOUTUBE 303:http://192.168.0.1/videocache/youtube/8cd3415ddd023dd9?ip=0.0.0.0&sparams=id%2Cexpire%2Cip%2Cipbits%2Citag%2Calgorithm%2Cburst%2Cfactor&algorithm=throttle-factor&itag=34&ipbits=0&burst=40&sver=3&expire=1261706400&key=yt1&signature=0DB245CD67B309195CB7C4F9B7A5966766E250D3.BDBE419FB0639316828D68FB3805557B776C5940&factor=1.25&id=8cd3415ddd023dd9

got the solution! the addon noscript blocks it when "abe (application boundaries enforcer" is enabled.
in the rules section it's commented like this:
"# Prevent Internet sites from requesting LAN resources."

deactivate it and it works :)
