Don't know about download helper, but you can use tcpdump, while the movie 
starts, and watch for 'GET' messages for "flv" files. something like this:
,----
| $ tcpdump -i eth0 -s 512 -l -A port http | egrep "Host:|GET.*flv.*HTTP"
`----

Then use wget on the URL you find. Not a one-click-your-mother-proof 
solution, but works most of the time.
