recording web video from the web

New client sent a link to a website that has the style/look he wants for the new project. Its a flash video. Is there any way to record this video from the said website so I can look at it frame by frame to discect the edits and effects?
tnx

This is going to sound neanderthal, but I think you'll get the best and easiest reference file by pointing a camera at the screen and pushing "record".

I'll give it "shot", as it were! I'm feelin particularly neanderthal today, eyebrows falling down over my blurry red eyeballs,,,yes, neanderthal it is!!! tnx!

Better way to do it is to use Ambrosia's SnapzPro. Screen capture. You can choose a codec, a frame rate, and the image will be much clearer than if you just pointed a camera at the screen.

If you have a PC and use Firefox you can download an extension called Ook? Video Ook! that can download .flv videos from websites. Riva encoder can transcode them.

Alternately, there's a tutorial on YouTube for downloading these videos that refers to a website that does media conversion as it downloads. Sorry, i don't recall the name, but do a search at YouTube for it.
