Actually, the same person mentioned both. ffmpeg lets you mangle video
file format (like convert the audio in .avi files so they will play in
quicktime) and mplayer plays video files (and streaming video). mplayer
also lets you save the video stream during playback. That way you have a
file.

When I get home this evening I will see if I can save the stream you
mentioned.
