Sorry, I don't think that URL uniquely identifies the video. You need either a 
lineupId or videoId parameter. If I copy a URL flashblock gives me in the 
c.brightcove.com form it doesn't work.

It should be possible to add support for NYTimes, it will need some custom 
reference extraction though (e.g. like done for about.com in About.pm), so 
changing the ticket to adding support for NYTimes.

Got a similar debug output issue with the following command (gfv 1.23, OS XP + 
activeperl: 5.8.9()
get_flash_videos http://vod.fxnetworks.com/watch/terriers/608800083001 
--subtitles -d

The above video has also closed captions so I guess the --subtitles option 
should be supported as well.
