Also, in many cases, with flashplayer playing or pausing the video,
notice the filename in /tmp beginning with Flash.  mplayer can play that
file with its full screen mode, speed controls, etc.  This won't work
for all flash files, and be sure to mv or cp the /tmp/Flash file BEFORE
you close flashplayer.
