Del DeVries : Flash Video Capture

Capture Flash Video / YouTube, etc.

Firefox extensions - may be the best approach (updated 3/20/2010, other sections below were created in 2008 and updated through 2009). Check Firefox addon search for Flash video for the most recently updated extensions. Two recently updated (_03-20-2010)

Capture YouTube videos (or other streaming flash video)

YouTube Downloader Works (with multiple options for file output type) but has a cumbersome extra step with copying in source code (not clear why?)
SaveVideoDownload works, but has obnoxious pop-up ads

VideoCacheView - Copy video files from Web browser cache. Another utility from NirSoft.

After watching a video in a Web site, you may want to save the video file into your local disk for playing it offline in the future. If the video file is stored in your browser's cache, this utility can help you to extract the video file from the cache and save it for watching it in the future.

WebVideoCap another NirSoft utility.

While watching a video in a Web site, you may sometimes want to save the video into your local drive, and then play it offline later. This utility allows you to capture .flv (Flash Video) files and RTSP streams while the Web browser download and play them inside a Web page. After the entire video file is downloaded and played by the Web browser, the video file is saved in the folder that you selected, and you can play it offline later with any Video player.

If you follow someone else’s way, you are not going to realize your potential.
