A friend of the family had their son shown briefly in a news video and they'd really like to save it locally but they're not sure how to do that. I took a quick look and came up with nothing either but I figured perhaps someone here knows a trick or two to download it.

The vid is on the right side of this page: http://www.lohud.com/article/2009908110348

I figure it's saved in .flv format somewhere but I can't find it. Thanks!

Yeah, I have that already but it only seems to work on fairly well known sites. Works like a charm with anything on youtube for example.

Firefox + Download Helper plugin. A little ball animation thingy will start moving when there's media to be downloaded, and you just click on it.

@JeeJee: I just downloaded orbit and got to the same place you screenshotted. However, once I told it to actually download that file it kept cycling between:

"Connected"
"Wait for retry(55)"
"Connecting cp21773.edgefcs.net:1935"

and repeating indefinitely. Doesn't seem to be working. The url it is trying to download is:

rtmp://cp21773.edgefcs.net:1935/ondemand/maven|ondemand/maven|081009_westptmarch_lohud__758533|http://gannett.a.mms.mavenapps.net/mms/rt/1/site/gannett-westchester-084-pub01-live/1.112/articleplayer/singleclip/client/singleclip.swf|http://www.lohud.com/article/2009908110348&OBT_fname=081009_westptmarch_lohud__758533.flv

which I tried to download manually and it didn't work either.

@Jibba: I have that plugin already and it doesn't work for this site. It picks up some .swf ad on that page but that's it.

grab++ hasn't failed me in a while and i'm too lazy to poke around in lhh atm to decipher the mess since i am going to sleep.. i will check this later though xD
maybe there's some super simple method too

This was already tried and proven not to work on all sites, please read first... Anyway, i usually use grab++ and it hasn't failed in a while.
Why would you ever choose failure, when success is an option.
