Is there a way to actually download the entire video? I don't like these streams....

useful comment but it ruins the formatting of the page (the URL line doesn't break in Konqueror)

well, unfortunately this download is interrupted for me every time, and wget can't continue it (with the correct flags) for some reason... so i'm still waiting for some decent downloadable format.
why google videos do not offer a downloadable format ? i think one of youtube/gvideo allowed that before...

If you have a flash player then the video will be saved in /tmp, under a name like /tmp/FlashRfFkIG . So you can load the google video page, pause the video, wait for it to be fully downloaded, and then copy that file somewhere else (it gets deleted when you close the browser window or navigate to another page). It's "flv" format, which you can play with e.g. mplayer.

There are other ways, but I found this one to be the most practical and universal (works with all websites).
