Does anyone know how to "save" Google videos to disk if it doesn't have a download button next to the video?

Some videos on Google video have an option to download the video and save it. Does anyone know how to save or capture an onscreen video that is not offered formally for download. For example, is there any software out there that will do something equivalent to a "screen capture" for images ....like a multiple screen capture to save the video?

http://www.keepvid.com/ will allow you to do it. It explains the (not difficult at all) process you have to go through to be able to download the file. Sometimes the files will be saved as a .flv file type. Most media viewers right now cannot view such an extension, but if you search Google for VLC player, you'll find a VLC Media Player which can.
Reply:I dont think so. You are only viewing it using Flash I think or live streaming. Its for piracy protection.
