A button should appear next to the address bar once installed.
If there's media playing on the page, the button will be highlighted and then you just click on the little down arrow to select the file, it will then save the file as normal.
Hope that helps =o

Under windows XP, using Opera, with the video paused, just navigate to opera's cache (usually C:Documents and SettingsDANNYCHOOApplication DataOperaOperaprofilecache4). Order the files by date and look for a recent "opr####.flv" file. It worked for me.
