Try VideoDownloadHelper. This firefox extension works on pretty much every website.
Anyhow, be aware that it might be illegal to download streaming content.

youtube-dl works on almost on all video sites. To use it open a terminal and type in youtube-dl "link-to-video"

You can try 4k downloader. It downloads Youtube, Vimeo etc. It's free and open-source.

If you prefer online downloader, you can try this one which I think is better than others among those downloaders I have used. With it, you can download streaming videos with no problem at all.
