I'd like to capture my version as well. It appears to be a Flash Video
embedded in a public facebook page.
The actual movie should be a .flv file (or maybe .swf).
I used to be able to download .flv files with Real Converter from Real
Player and convert them to Real Player files and from there to .mov or
.avi files.
But I've just spent a fruitless hour looking for Real Player on my
system. I know I didn't uninstall it, and the directories are still
there, but the executable is *GONE*!.
All the video files I downloaded from YouTube & converted to Real Player
format are now linked to WinAmp ... and they play in WinAmp for the most
part.
My own version of "Different from Pentax" errors out when I try to open
the URL with WinAmp, but that may be because I haven't yet figured out
how to grab a local copy. It should be in my cache somewhere, but I
haven't found it yet, although I did find the cupsizechoir.flv in there.
There are some programs you can install to capture streaming video. Just
google "download flash video". I won't recommend any, because I don't
know which works & which doesn't. That's what I originally downloaded
the Real Converter for.

If you're successful et me know. All I get is a message saying "the
video is not downloadable from this site". Using Firefox 3 - Haven't
tried IE.
