If you scroll down further on the page you will get the download links which can then be played with windows media player

When I click "save link as", it starts WMP. It doesn't save. How can I proceed further?

Well my personal opinion: I think Flashgot is better since it is easier to use + it supports a lot of Download managers/accelerators

Install link here:
http://flashgot.net/

Before installing this, remove VideoDownloadHelper ;)

VideoDownloadHelper shows it is downloading mms://velblod2.ijs.si:80/v004/a0/ucm4dfj6fdjb7pclfalb55mkajry4hnt.wmv but download doesn't start even after hours.

You are using windows media player & all you have is audio files right?
Download VLC player & download using this player.

All i can think of is youtube downloader might be what your after, just copy the url of that video and paste it into youtube downloaders url bar and choose wher you want it to be downloaded to, you may be able to watch it with media player but if not vlc should play it fine.
Note when installing youtube down loader read through the install carefully as there are toolbars to uncheck and it offers to install McAfee.

Due to undecided copyright policy, video clips can not be downloaded yet. You must be connected to the internet to watch video clips. You can bookmark the page and return to view a clip as often as you would like.

If you can’t see the record button open up VLC player view click on advanced controls.

Thanx a lot. This method finally worked.

How can I download a video if URL is not available. For example, consider the following:

http://mitworld.mit.edu/video/916

I am unable to figure out what the URL is. With URL, I can't play in VLC player and record.

Anyone wanting a good little YouTube video downloader, check out YouChoob. It allows for batch downloading, video quality selection and shutting down once finished.
