You can't.  Just last night I viewd a video (flv) out of a video hosting 
site with Opera and with its cache set Very High -- just for this 
exercise.  While the video was displaying in the Opera window, I fired up 
a linux konsole and navigated down into the .opera/ directory to the 
cache sub-directory.  Seeing the most recent entries and picking off the 
largest of them, I rightly guessed that was the video and I copied it -- 
with rename -- to another directory.

Rule 1 on the web:
If you send it to them to see, read, or hear, they have it.


OBTW, if you're curious:
The 'loaded' URL is:
  http://dailymotion.alice.it/video/x3wrzo_fabrication-dune-lampe-triode_tech

The simpler, flv-only URL is:
  http://www.dailymotion.com/swf/x3wrzo

A pretty kewl video for some of us......
