Need to capture 'elusive' Flash video from a site

I am trying to capture and download a Flash video from cooksillustrated.com site but all I get is a small swf 'shell/no video' file with Sothink Web Video downloader Firefox extension. NetVideoHunter is unable to capture it.

I found a product called Replay Media Catcher which works very well.

I personally use firebug for this purpose - there you can monitor network activity which flags all the files the system downloads and how long it takes, as soon as I see the video file, I grab the absolute URL and snag it with wget.
