Any 1080p video downloaded from youtube through IDM is very laggy on PC(I use XMBC to play the videos) and has no Audio when i play it on my 1080P TV
720p videos work fine though

Weird problem with IDM
some of the videos i downloaded is also not having audio.
That's because YouTube has done some mischief. Already Google is pushing its products into your face. Latest being, owning an account to comment on YT. I mean, WTF ?
So, here is the post describing the situation and an irritating discussion follows here in this google group but a good source for getting some help regarding downloading full 1080p videos can be found here
I know this is no permanent solution but I did a little bit digging and found out that 4kvideodownloader and youtubedownloaderhd seem to be working as of now(I personally confirmed it 2 days ago). However, it wouldn't be long before YT finds this out.

Extensions can be sideloaded when you are not connected to the internet. Just drag and drop the .crx file in chrome://extensions/ window.^^

i facing a weird problem in IDM too...whenever I play a video on youtube or any videos sites it starts capturing all sort of media file links automatically and pops up all the time. Is there any way to handle this as its really irritating to have things pop up while watching a video

in options delete the file type you dont want. or disable idm for the browser you are using when you dont want to show popup.

I use keepvid.com to download the vids; I don't download 1080 so I don't know.

Have you tried the other stuffs like DC++ and FDM they have better functionality and a wider audience you can get things from.
I am also facing a strange problem with IDM too.... now i can't download HD videos from youtube...

the problem is not with the video you are tring to play. it may be with VLC or some other program eating the RAM and hence lag in playing the video. happened with me thrice when i was playing 1080p movies in old laptop, though the movies worked fine in newer laptops.
That still does not explain why 1080p IDM downloaded videos have no Audio when played thru TV
Are other 1080p videos playing fine on your system ? Try using the tools I mentioned
TBH, I never updated IDM since Day 1, so can't comment on that. That said, I use a FVD + IDM combo. First, get the link from FVD. Next, download using IDM. I did that because, at times, IDM would go nuts
FVD works all the time. Except YouTube
So, I started using other alternatives and they seem to work. Earlier, I used to rely on Keepvid and it never failed me until recently, it couldn't get me 1080p links thanks to YouTubeTOS shi.t

you can also try this YouTube Center for Greasemonkey
+1.
Adds many functions to youtube video player.
Recommended if you spend most of the time watching videos.
