This has gotten really aggravating. It seems that it's getting harder and harder to get the source file... for example, I'd like to download the video from this webpage:

http://www.clontech.com/US/Thats_Good_Sc...ood_Supply

Is there a relatively simple, single-click way to do this?

In Safari, it's 5 clicks: Load the page as though you were using an iPad so you don't get that Flash garbage, then…

start playing the video

option-command-I (to show the Web Inspector)

click the 'target' icon (to enable 'point-to-inspect' mode)

command-click the video link (to show the video as a standalone in a separate tab)

control-click (or "right-click" for you PC-ish users) the playing video to get the contextual (or "context" for you PC-ish users) menu then select download)

The URL for the video is http://brightcove.vo.llnwd.net/e1/uds/pd...2109978001&lineupId=&affiliateId=&pubId=1050259872001&videoId=4138576454001
