Some of this was covered in the youtube thread but this works for ANY site! (Firefox Only)

1. Install the firefox extension downloadhelper here: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/3006/
    Or directly from Here

    It is IMO the greatest flv grabber i have seen and can even grab vids from places like weakgame and heavy.com

2. Download and install the freeware Reva FLV Encoder 2 from here:
    http://www.download.com/Riva-FLV-Encoder/3000-2140_4-10381392.html?tag=lst-0-1

3. Go to any site with a flash video and wait till it starts to play and the

animates.
Click on it, and download the .FLV file that you want.

4. Run Riva and open the .FLV file (input file) by either browse or drag and drop. The export video name will appear
under "Destination Video File" with the .FLV extension. Remove (backspace) the .FLV and replace it with .MPEG

5. For best quality set the "Preset" to Offline.xml and click "Encode". Riva will seem to have frozen, but just be
patient. When it's done, all will return to normal and you can do what you'd like with your new .MPEG file.

great tips, Hunter!

as a side note, one can also use riva's flv player to view flash vids directly without converting. free download here:
