Download Any Flash Video With Ubuntu

ubuntu-logo217

I just learned that any flash video you play using Ubuntu is stored in the /tmp directory so you don’t have to install any programs or Firefox add-ons to store the video on your computer.  The way it works is you let the video completely cache/download and then go to the /tmp directory to grab the video.  If the video doesn’t play for you put a .flv extension on the end of it and you are good to go.  Go Ubuntu!

    Good info however I did notice that the tab with the video has to be open for the file to remain in the /temp folder.
