Also you can use:

1. Firefox extension: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/3006/?src="">

2. CLI : youtube-dl URL

  to install: yum install youtube-dl

yes, it works.
 
If you can find the address of the media file that's actually played,
rather than just the media player, you can download that with the wget
command.  *Finding* out that information is the harder part.

With the Flashblock Firefox plugin, you can copy the address of
currently blocked Flash content, and paste that address into something
else, such as the command line.  But what I've said previously still
stands:  Sometimes you'll find the address for a directly playable Flash
file, othertimes you'll end up with the address for the Flash player,
and that player would normally have played the media in the webpage.
But it won't do anything for you when you download it as a file.

it happened becoz wget always see the url and saves that. if it is of the page, it saves that and if of the video-id., it downloads that. and that is very tough to find the address of the media file, so i just for now installed DownloadHelper.
 
I have been using "Video Downloadhelper"
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/3006/
for Firefox add-on which
has a pop-up menu, which has a choice to copy the
flash's url to the clipboard.
You can then paste that url to the  wget command.

works great and including youtube for website also it works.
