no one? If it helps I can "download" the file, but it ends up being 33KB... which is certainly not the size of the movie.

Why not just go to File > Save Page As

In Firefox, it let me save the swf.

Check the filesize. It's not the swf.

If you figured out how to get the FLVs, you should already know the answer to your question.

Most converters I'm using only convert the sound, without video.

what you can do is download Opera (link in sig) and download this widget that allows you to download any movie on the net by just giving the link.

edit: or just use this site: videodownloader.net

I tried videodownloader on the vids.. no luck.

MediaCoder will convert FLV to AVI/MPG, and I'm pretty sure it's a free download over at download.com

Edit:
http://mediacoder.sourceforge.net/

Try that, very slick program, slightly high learning curve though, it'll sometimes put out a lot of errors and fail to convert, without telling you why. Usually it's just something you set wrong, but once you figure it out it works great.
