Save downloaded file to the specified filename. Usually this shouldn't be
necessary, as C<get_flash_videos> tries to use a meaningful name for the
video.

=item I<-r>, I<--quality>

The quality of the video to attempt to download. Some sites offer videos in
multiple qualities; this will let you specify which quality to prefer.
C<get_flash_videos> will aim to download a video at the specified quality or
lower, if no video is available at that quality it will download the next
highest quality video available.

You can specify a quality as either:

=over 4

=item *

high

=item *

medium

=item *

low

=back

or a target resolution:

=over 4

=item *

1080p (1920x1080)

=item *

720p (1280x720)

=item *

576p (720x576)

=item *

480w (854x480)

=item *

480p (640x480)

=item *

240w (427x240)

=item *

240p (320x240)

=back

High corresponds to 1080p or 720p, medium to 576p, 480w and 480p and low to 240w and 240p.

The default is B<high>.

=item I<-p>, I<--play>

Begin playing the video once enough of the file has been downloaded.

=item I<--player=C<CMD>>

Specify the player to use for the C<--play> option. Any occurrence of C<%s> in
this string will be replaced with the filename of the video (appropriately
shell escaped).

The default on *nix operating systems is to use mplayer:

  mplayer -really-quiet %s

You may wish to automatically delete the video after you have viewed it:

  mplayer -really-quiet %s; rm %s

On Windows, if C<-p> or C<--play> is specified but no player is specified,
VLC (if installed) will be used to play the video. There is no need to
specify where you have installed VLC - this will be automatically retrieved
from the registry.

=item I<--proxy>

Proxy to use, a SOCKS proxy or HTTP proxy can be specified.

To specify a SOCKS proxy, simply provide the host and port in host:port format.
If port is not specified, 1080 is assumed. C<LWP::Protocol::socks> is required for
SOCKS support.

To specify an HTTP proxy, provide the proxy URL, for example C<http://host:port>.

For proxying RTMP downloads, SOCKS is required along with a version of
C<rtmpdump> which supports SOCKS proxying.

If no proxy is specified on the command line or the config file the
C<$HTTP_PROXY> environment variable will be used.

=item I<--subtitles>

Download subtitles for the video, if available. Subtitles are converted to
SubRip format and saved to a file of the same name as the video file, but
with an extension of 'srt'.

=item I<-q>, I<--quiet>

Be quiet, only print errors.

=item I<-u>, I<--update>

Check the I<get-flash-videos> website for a newer version. If a newer version is
available download it and replace the running version with it. You will need to
