There is, but is isn't always easy.
I had set of 4 bookmarks in my browser that, when clicked, will download the youtube video to be saved in one of 4 resolutions, but they seem to be broken now.
I've found another way....change the URL to the youtube video to
Free Download from Rapidshare, FileFactory. Free Download Videos from Youtube, Google, Metacafe - SaveFrom.net and it will take you to a page that will give you several choices of download formats for that video. It looks like it works for a lot more than just YouTube too.
This site also offers a download helper that puts a download button on the youtube page. I've not tried it and don't know if it works or is reliable, however.
UPDATE: Looks like this page supports a bookmarklet too....
Create a new bookmark with whatever name you want and with the URL of
Code:
javascript:(function(){window.open('http://savefrom.net/?url='+encodeURIComponent(location.href)+'&utm_source=bookmarklet&utm_medium=bookmarklet&utm_campaign=bookmarklet');})()

When you are on a youtube page (or any of the other supported video sites), and click the above bookmark, it will take you to the download site with the links ready to download the various formats without having to manipulate the url each time.
