What website? For youtube you can use youtube-dl
For an rtmp stream you can use rtmpdump
mplayer will dump to file.
curl or wget or another downloader will download it.

Look at the web pages source for it.

Chromium:
-FVD Downloader
-Mint-Search Enhancer
-Save as PDF
-Delicious Bookmarks


Firefox

-BYTubeD - Bulk YouTube video Downlaoder
-Download Helper
-Flash and Video Download

-Mint Search Enhancer
-Stylish 1.0.7
