Thank you very much indeed.
youtube-dl works fine and is probably all I need because it seems
to work for a lot of other sites. I just tested it for Dailymotion.

Thanks also for the get-flash-videos link which I am glad to study
in detail, including the git port I've now installed.

FreeBSD is a wonderful OS!

Yes, it's in ~/.opera, for example:
me at pollux:~ % file .opera/cache/g_002C/opr004FM.tmp
.opera/cache/g_002C/opr004FM.tmp: Macromedia Flash Video

Really happy,
