As Hans-Werner already mentioned, most embedded (flash)-videos are stored temporarily on disk in /tmp or in the browser's cache at least here with firefox. So just wait until it is loaded and don't close the browser window then copy it to where you want. Btw. YouTube and GoogleVideo store them to /tmp. They play well with mplayer, xine, vlc which i use, others will also work. Regards, Daniel -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
